Feverish for February 2015


Well, January is over, and we are a month into the new year. Hmmm...Already a lot  has been happening. New movies, returning shows, and new book releases! Yah, this year has started off amazingly. And, now, we are into February...yes, it is the  month love, especially with Valentine's Day coming.

I am very happy that several of my favorite television shows have returned...and, it is only getting better! As for movies, there have been some amazing films that have been released, including American Sniper, Taken 3, and Paddington...just to name a few. I can't even keep up with all the movies that are being released...whoa!

In regards to books...well, that too I can't even keep up with...haha!!! But, I did set myself up with that Goodreads Reading Challenge this year since I found out that I read 74 books last year. I wasn't even counting. When I think about it, maybe it wasn't such a good idea to set myself up with this challenge...haha! I might disappointment myself if I don't read the amount of books I set for myself. I did't want to go too high, so I set myself up with a good number....100 books. Not too much, right!?! LOL! For me anyways...I'm challenging myself easy for now. And, apparently, I'm four books behind....LOL!

Enough of January, let's get started with February! As the year trudges along, each month brings a whole lot of movies, shows, & books!

Let's take a look at a few upcoming releases!

*Shows*

I don't know where to start when it comes to some of my favorite television series. Some are always on the verge of cancellation or renewal. It is even more harrowing for new shows...yes, shows do get cancelled during the season! It really is disappointing when shows you really enjoy get cancelled. But...it is also exciting when other shows get renewed! :) So... January was exciting when two of many shows that I love returned... Grimm and Constantine!

Here are some shows that are returning this month!
