Sci-Fi November - Hosted by Rinn Reads & Oh, the Books!

Sci-Fi November is well and truly back. After doing it last year through the lovely Rinn from Rinn Reads, Sci-Fi November has a new home but with new members to the mix and this time it’s going to be even BIGGER! I’ve been planning this for a long while, and whilst I’m a little late with the intro post I can’t wait to read and fangirl over Sci-Fi. 
Me and Sci-Fi

When it comes to reading Sci-Fi I can be in a very picky mood, but recently, I’ve come into to some fabulous novels this year such as The Jewel by Amy Ewing and Tempest by Julie Cross. Seems so little, but I have to be really gripped in order to enjoy them. I guess you could say its a slippery genre with me. But TV and Film however, is another thing entirely, we have had some awesome films this year as well as TV shows; Divergent, The Maze Runner, The 100 and Big Bang Theory (obviously). I have also been introduced to many classics this year for the first time, Alien (s), Terminator (s) and Predator (s). 


Let the Fun begin…
As part of Sci-Fi Month I’m also taking part in Dana’s (The Nerdy Journalist) Sci-Fi Read-along. which is taking place throughout the whole of November which is awesome:
Sci-Fi Read-a-thon
My goal for this month is 3…it’s a safe bet as I’m pretty busy this month sadly. But if I can beat it then I’d like to read 5 if I can! Sadly, I won’t be able to start any books until next week *sighs*
Vortex by Julie Cross
The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken
and A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray*
*Myself and Dana are reading A Thousand Pieces of you together, so if you would like to join us then let us know on the comments or through twitter @NverJudgeaBook
Are you taking part? Have you read any really good sci-fi books? Let me know. Don’t forget to stop through the whole of this month, I have lots planned…..

  1. I wish I could join up because I looooove me Science Fiction but I have decided to give myself some rest on November, try to catch up with review books and new releases I'm excited for, no more challenges for now!

    • It was really good to do something different, to take a break from review books alike. I think I need to take on more challenges.

  2. Oh this sounds like a great idea Emma! You have some great books to look forward to as well! I loved The Darkest Minds and can't wait to get to book two! I would also love to join you and Dana in reading A Thousand Pieces of You. Let me know when you're thinking of starting! 🙂

    • Thanks Jasprit! If I'm honest I didn't really get through The Darkest Minds sadly, it was a little too long and complicated at the time when I wanted something easy to read. So sorry we couldn't read a Thousand Pieces of You together! Hope you are enjoying it though!

  3. I hope you'll have fun! It's a genre that I don't normally seek out, but I'll be looking forward to your reviews in case something catches my eyes. 🙂

    Oh I didn't know The Jewel was considered sci-fi but now i'm pretty intrigued! Hopefully you meet your goal 🙂

  5. Oh A Thousand Pieces of You is a really interesting book and I cannot wait to see what you think of it. I want to read The Darkest Minds badly. Hope you'll enjoy it. Great post, Em 🙂
