Hey, guys!

I am so happy that this month is finally over! I ended my classes and now I just have to study for an exam! I can finally relax a bit more and dedicate more time to my reading and to my blog! I know I have been a bit on and off doing tags, answering comments and viewing what you all are up to, but I am getting there! Also, I will be uploading more posts again just like I used too!

This month was actually pretty good considering the stress over final school works. I read pretty much what I intended to and added a pile more to my TBR… The balance is off, but at least I had a great time reading the few I got to! I read 10 books, some were arcs, some were manga and a couple I read because the next books are going to be released really soon.

So for this month, I have:

30115958  25186720  cover107813-medium  25909164.jpg  22839894  23766623  26626118  91f3zwfEmpL  34299826  31439520

  1. The Hidden Oracle – Rick Riordan –  ★★★★☆
  2. Orange #1 – Ichigo Takano – ★★★★★
  3. ARC: Room Empty – Sarah Mussi – ★★★☆☆
  4. Orange #2 – Ichigo Takano – ★★★★½
  5. A Court of Thorns and Roses – Sarah J. Maas – ★★★☆☆
  6. A Court of Mist and Fury – Sarah J. Maas – ★★★★½
  7. ARC: How to Make a Wish – Ashley Herring Blake – ★★★½☆☆
  8. City of Glass – Cassandra Clare – ★★★☆☆
  9. ARC: Countless – Karen Gregory – ★★★★☆
  10. The Enemy Within – Scott Burn – ★★★★☆

To know more about each of them, make sure you click the title. As for the ones that I don’t have a review yet, a link will be added later.

You can also check them out here by the author, here by the name of the book! Or here with photos of what I read in each month of the year!

TOP 3 of the Month:

My favorite book of the month was… surprise, surprise… A Court of Mist and Fury! I think everyone was already expecting that, but it was definitely an awesome book! It has everything I love: great characters, and amazing world and lots of action! I am officially addicted to the series and I can’t wait to read more about the Court of Dreams!

In second comes Orange. This is now one of my favorite mangas of all time and I am only just starting! Because I bought the bind up edition, I will do a review only when I end the last book in the compilation. But it’s definitely coming!

And lastly but not least I really enjoyed The Hidden Oracle! I love Rick Riordan’s books and this definitely didn’t let me down! The characters are even funnier and I love the world with all my heart!

Favorite Cover of the Month:

34299826

I love this cover incredibly much! The colors, the simplicity, and the words. It’s just so adorable! And the story didn’t let me down either! The story is beautiful and incredibly realistic! It’s about a girl that suffers from anorexia and ends up pregnant. And it’s her journey trough it!

Here’s what I’m planning to read this month!

314476013447263823766634cover104225-medium21075514325713953195270332596757

For this month I have a couple of new releases and some ARCs! But I had to include The Circle for this month too, because of the movie release that is sometime around now (?). To be honest, I haven’t heard much good about it, but I kinda find it intriguing so I will give it a shot, and let you guys know what I thought of it!

I’m most excited to read ACOWAR and The Dark Prophecy since I pre-ordered them some time ago and I have been anxiously waiting ever since!

And for the ARCs I am most excited about One of Us is Lying that I already heard great things about! Funny thing about that book is: I wanted it so freaking much that I asked it from two publishers at Netgalley because one said that in the requirements that pretty much only accepted people from the US, and I had already been denied for one book some time ago, from them. So I asked this one to a publisher that said that accepted people from the EU.

Guess what?! I was accepted by both… Sigh! So if you guys see two posts about that book, sorry! I am thinking of doing a review and a post just about the book with some random thoughts and quotes… What do you guys think? Did it ever happen to you before?

 

What will you guys be reading this month? Have you read any of the books I mentioned? What did you think of them?

**Hope you guys have an amazing month **

Happy Readings!

    • I really wanna read ACOWAR and The Dark Prophecy and they are taking ages to arrive >.< The Dark Prophecy hasn’t even been sent :O
      One of Us is Lying is a really good book and I would definitely recommend it! The Circle I haven’t read it yet but I’m hoping to enjoy it 😀

    • I definitely prefer the second one in everything! We see more about the world, there’s some pretty cool characters and it’s overall more exciting!
      I gave the first book 3 stars and I gave the second one 4.5, so definitely it improved for me! 😀
      Hope you enjoy it!

      Good luck for you too! 🙂

      • I finished reading it on monday and watched the movie that same night… my review will be coming shortly and I really liked the book, it completely infuriated me (but I like that in a book) and the movie’s storyline was a bit better but still I didn’t feel that much for it! I hope you enjoy it!!

        • I am around 200 pages in and I am liking it so far, I have a tone of doubts tho and it has a bit to much description for my taste, so I got a audiobook and it’s making me love it much more 😛
          It’s such a strange addictive book! I desperately need answers about some details so I can’t make myself stop reading it!
          Can’t wait to read your review!
