Oathbringer

IMG_2126I am such a huge fan of the Stormlight Archives. I started with Words of Radiance earlier this year and I have honestly not looked back! I wasn’t the biggest fan of Edgedancer which I read a few months ago but I have a feeling that Lift is definitely going to be a stronger protagonist in this instalment. I am definitely more of a high/epic fantasy reader and this series just encompasses everything that I love about the genre. A plethora of characters that interweave throughout the plot, a magic system that is well defined and original and a world that is huge and very well developed. Brandon Sanderson is an amazing writer and I am low key sad that I won’t get another book in this series for a few years. There is still so many of his books that I haven’t read though so I will definitely be keeping myself busy in the meantime.

Happy Reading📚

Muse of Nightmares

IMG_2117This is another of my most anticipated book releases of the year! I read Strange the Dreamer earlier in the year after putting it off for the longest time. I’ve spoken about it before on my blog but I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series by Laini Taylor. I even DNF’d Dreams of Gods and Monsters and that is not an easy thing for me to do. I have a hard time leaving books as DNF’s and having it unresolved and finished but I just couldn’t continue on. So that really put me off Strange the Dreamer for the longest time until I finally bit the bullet earlier this year and was pleasantly surprised! I ended up really enjoying the plot and the whimsical nature of Laini Taylor’s prose really came across better for me in this book. Which is why I’m really excited to continue on in this storyline and see what happens next!

Happy Reading📚

 

December TBR

The majority of the books on this month’s TBR are books that I need to read to complete/continue on in a few series that I have been loving. I am super excited to read all of these books on the list and I will definitely have more time towards the end of this month to read because the holidays are coming up! I cannot believe that it’s the end of 2018 already, this year has completely flew by!

That being said my TBR for December includes:

Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor

November Wrap Up

I had a pretty good reading month for November. I completed nearly all the books on my TBR so I am happy about that! I had a little bit of an up and down month though, there were a few books that I really loved and a few that I really struggled to finish. I had to kind of push myself to read which makes me want to not read at all, so it was a bit of a pain. I have reviews on all the books I read in the month of November so feel free to click on the titles to check them out!

Our Dark Duet by Victoria Schwab – ⭐️4/5 stars

The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken – ⭐️4/5 stars

Restore Me Update

IMG_2187So I had every intention of reading Restore Me this month and completing the Shatter Me series but I honestly don’t want to anymore. There were sooo many people hyping it up and saying its one of their all time favourites and I’ve found it’s quite a staple in the YA community but its definitely not what I expected.  I was very underwhelmed by the first three books and now any excitement or need to finish has fizzled out. I have a lot more books on my TBR for the rest of the year so I will move on to those and hopefully my urge to finish Restore Me will rekindle in the new year!

Happy Reading📚
