The second book follows Mibs’s cousin as he tries to get his savvy of dismantling anything metal under control. The first book follows Mibs, who gets her magical powers-called a Savvy-on her thirteenth birthday like the rest of her siblings, and sets off with two of her brothers and some new friends to try to get to the hospital where her father is in a coma after a car accident. These books take place in contemporary midwest and west America and follow a sprawling family with magical powers. I read the first two books, Savvy and Scumble, on New Years Day, and the third book, Switch, the day after. I really liked almost all the books I read too, so on the whole this was a really good reading month.įirst, I blazed through the Savvy trilogy by Ingrid Law. The non-fantasy book I read this month was historical fiction.

And all of the books I read but one were fantasy, mostly middle grade fantasy but one adult fantasy series. I only read half a book in Braille and switched to audio when I got the flu. I read three complete series this month, continued with a series that I was in the middle of, started a new series, and read one stand-alone. I also read 14 books in January, which gets me well on my way toward my 100 book goal for 2020. I started writing every morning before work, a friend from college came to visit for the weekend, I made a ton of progress on my revisions, and then I got the flu and a post-flu ear/sinus issue that I’m still dealing with. This is the first year that I’m working full time and didn’t have a long break from mid-December through mid-January, which was definitely part of the feeling that January lasted forever. January felt like a very, very long month this year.
