Hello friends!

I hope you’re doing well! It’s time to show you all the books that I’m planning on reading in February!

Let me start by saying this month will be a little different! If you read my post on How I Create My Monthly TBR Lists, you already know my magical formula to plan my reading month. But this month we are doing something different! For reference, I usually read 2 paperbacks, 2 audiobooks, 1 ebook, and 1 manga volume each month – but this month I’m going to mix things up a bit and I’m going to listen to 5 audiobooks and 1 manga.

I need to explain this temporary change on my monthly TBR, so here we go: friends, my life is a MESS! I’m currently going through a lot of changes in my life and there is so much going on that needs my full attention that I just can’t find the time to read a physical book at the moment.

At the same time, I don’t want to compromise my reading altogether, so I decided to pick the same number of books (6), but do it more flexibly. So that’s why I’ve decided to listen to 5 audiobooks and 1 volume of the manga I’m currently reading. I can incorporate audiobooks more easily in my daily life and reading 1 manga volume a month is also doable.

I guess I could do at least one paperback, but I just don’t want to commit to doing it and fail miserably at the end. Another reason why I decided to change the format this month is that I still have a bunch of physical books to finish from the previous months, and I would rather to make progress on them instead of starting a new book.

So there you go, that’s why I’m doing a different format. But have no fear, this is only temporary until I get my life on track. It’s going to be a very interesting month, to say the least (nervous laughter)! So without further ado, here are the books I’m planning on reading in February:

1. The World’s Religions by Huston Smith

Starting strong with the first book! I don’t know a lot about other religions and I want to learn more about the subject, so I found this book and quickly added it to my TBR. I’m sure this is going to be the most complex book of the bunch, but I’m excited to learn more this upcoming month!

2. Pita-Ten (Vol. 4) by Koge-Donbo

For my monthly manga, I’m continuing the Pita-Ten series by reading the 4th volume! Last month I only read 1 volume, so I’m hoping I can make some progress with this series this month and maybe read more than just the 4th volume. We’ll see!

3. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

This is a book I always wanted to read, so I finally decided to add it to my TBR this month. I also never saw the movie and I know nothing about the story – yes, I’ve been living under a rock apparently -, so I’m going into this without knowing a thing! I’m excited to finally know this story.

4. Never Grow Up by Jackie Chan

One of the audiobooks I’m planning on reading in February is Jackie Chan’s memoir, named “Never Grow Up”. It’s not like I’m Jackie Chan’s biggest fan and I know all about his work, but I admire him a lot and I feel like he was a pioneer in his field! I have a really good feeling about this memoir, and I hope it’s a good one.

5. Sea Witch Rising (Sea Witch #2) by Sarah Henning

The other audiobook I want to read this month is the second book of the “Sea Witch” duology! I started this duology in January because it’s part of my “Oldest 30 Books on my TBR” list, and I plan on finishing the entire thing in February. I’ll admit I’m not expecting a lot from this book because apparently, the story is completely different from the first book, but hopefully, it’s still entertaining!

6. Serpent & Dove (Serpent & Dove #1) by Shelby Mahurin

This is another book I’ve had on my TBR for a while now and it’s time to give it a go! This is a fantasy series I don’t know much about, but this is just one of those cases I prefer to get into the story without reading the synopsis. I want it to surprise me! Hopefully, it’s a good book and is a great start of the series.

Aaaand there you have it friends, my TBR list for February! As usual, I hope you liked this post! Let me know if you have any recommendations for me. You know I’m always grateful for those!

Thank you for reading, have a great day!
