Magic Study

by amyleighreadsLeave a Comment on Magic Study

IMG_1763I am very excited to continue on in the Study Series and start Magic Study by Maria V Snyder. I read Poison Study last month and it really took me by surprise, I honestly wasn’t expecting to like it as much as I did. I love Yelena as a character, her growth throughout the first book in the series was great to read and I’m excited to see what happens next as Yelena travels to Ixia to discover her powers! Hopefully we still get a little bit of Valek thrown in the story as I enjoyed his perspective and the relationship he shared with Yelena I found to be very genuine and to be torn apart after they finally declared their feelings really tore at my heartstrings. Highly anticipating this read and I’m hoping it lives up to my expectations.

Happy Reading📚

Lunar Chronicles

by amyleighreadsLeave a Comment on Lunar Chronicles

IMG_1717Yay, I am going to be continuing on in the Lunar Chronicles over the next few weeks. I read Cinder last week and absolutely LOVED it! So I am hyped to move right along through to Scarlett, Cress and Winter. Again the premise of these books are really interesting a sci-fi/fantasy retelling of classic fairytale stories is so original and compelling in my opinion. Cinder is an amazing character and Kai is in such a dilemma as the new Emperor and I really can not wait to see where Marissa takes these stories next and of course I will be getting back to you with full in depth reviews. If its a first book in the series or a stand alone I really kind of try to do non-spoiler reviews but for the rest of the books in a series I do like to go a bit more in depth with the reviews and go in to storylines, and sub-plots and character arcs and really give my overall opinion on the series. So if you don’t want to be spoiled maybe give these reviews a miss, totally up to you!

Renegades

by amyleighreadsLeave a Comment on Renegades

IMG_1715Look what I finally have my hands on! I have been eyeing off Renegades for sooo long now. Especially over these last couple of months since everyone has been raving about this book! I’ve heard this is comparable to X-Men being that they are humans with extraordinary abilities with a lot of action thrown in the mix. The premise behind this is exciting and I love a good fantasy/dystopian world with humans with super powers having to overcome some kind of obstacle! That trope really calls to me for some reason and I always seem to love every story that kind of revolves around that style. I have a lot of expectations attached to this book and I believe that the sequel is coming out I think at the end of this year really gives me a reason to sit down and read Renegades and see if all the hype surrounding this book is worth it. I haven’t read anything like this in a while and I am excited to give it a read and see what I think about it. I will definitely be getting back to you with a review in a few days!

Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles)

by amyleighreads1 Comment on Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles)

img_1555A new purchase of mine! Cinder and the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer have been on my TBR for a looooooong time now and I’ve finally picked up the first book in the series to see how I like it! The Lunar Chronicles has been kind of a staple in the YA community and I’ve just never felt the urge to read them. As far as I am aware it’s a kind of sci-fi, fantasy retelling of classic fairy-tales… The premise sounds really interesting and I haven’t read anything like this is a while. I’m yearning for something new and different and I think a throwing that little bit of sci-fi in the mix will really help. I will definitely coming back to you with a review when I finish it!

Happy Reading 📚

Words of Radiance Update

by amyleighreadsLeave a Comment on Words of Radiance Update

Unfortunately life has gotten in the way and I won’t have time to finish Words of Radiance by the end of this month. I am currently on page 535 and I am loving every word! I will continue to read on throughout the rest of this month and continue on through to next month but I just don’t have the time to sit down and read this 1000 page tome and give it the attention it deserves.

I am in love with Brandon Sanderson’s writing style and the world’s he comes up with are so epic and expansive it’s amazing to me. The characters are so well developed and the descriptive nature of his writing really makes the action leap out of the pages. Already so much has happened and I’m a little less than half way through… I have so many thoughts and theories so far and I am looking forward to continuing on in this series over the course of the next few months.
