Hello there, friend! I thought I’d try a new kind of post today, where I talk about the books that I want to try reading soon.
I’ve had these books on my mind for a while, so I’m happy to be able to talk about them. I always say that I’m going to read a book, and the I ultimately end up not reading the book because I’ve either forgot that it exists, OR other books take my attention.
The first on the list is: Continue reading
Lately all that has been on my mind is “Dragons Dragons Dragons!” If you know me, then you know that I love all things about the paranormal, all things supernatural, and all things fantasy. Which includes Dragons.
What actually started this hunt for dragon novels was Before She Ignites. I got to thinking that there were definitely more dragon novels out there. However, I wanted to accumilate some titles slowly, so I could remember them. I didn’t want to gather a bunch of titles, add them to my TBR list and then forget.
Yet, somehow, over the last few months I’ve gathered 5 titles to briefly talk about. Some titles I’ve known of for a few years, others much more recently. So without further ado,
Hello! Today’s post is my October 2017 Wrap Up + Book Haul!
October is one of the busier months for me personally. It’s busy because here in Canada we celebrate Thanksgiving on (or around) the 12th of October. Then it’s my birthday on the 25th (Two more years until my champagne birthday! Not that I’m going to drink, haha). After that, it’s Halloween!
In October I had 7 books on my TBR this month. Seven books is completely over ambitious for me, since I never really end up reading what I want to read. The books that were on my TBR this month were: The Ocean at the End of the Lane, by Neil Gaiman; Milk and Honey, by Rupi Kaur; Midnight at the Electric by Jodi Lynn Anderson; Shutter, by Courtney Alameda; Evil Librarian, by Michelle Knudsen; Labyrinth Lost, by Zoraida Córdova; and finally, The Madman’s Daughter, by Megan Shepherd.

Today’s post is about the books I’m looking forward to reading that are going to be published in September.
I seriously can’t believe how fast time has flown this year. I know I say that in every monthly post, but seriously. It feels like April was only yesterday. We’re already nearing September. September, people!
So here are the books that I’m looking forward to reading, which are going to be published in this fast approaching September! Continue reading
Hello lovelies! As you can see, I have a Library Reads post for you today! I’ve been trying to put myself on a kind of library ban. I can get books as long as the books are part of a series I’ve started reading, or books that I’ve queued for in the past. — This ban isn’t working though! Which is totally fine, because library books are free for the most part.
Anyway, here are some books that I’ve borrowed from the library! I’m honestly looking forward to reading all of these babies. Continue reading
Asunder is the second book to Incarnate and if you haven’t read the first book yet, and plan on reading the first book, I’m suggesting you don’t read this review. If you don’t want to read this book, and want to get a feel of what I thought of Asunder, then read away! Continue reading
“New soul
Ana is new. For thousands of years in Range, a million souls have been reincarnated over and over, keeping their memories and experiences from previous lifetimes. When Ana was born, another soul vanished, and no one knows why.
No soul
Even Ana’s own mother thinks she’s a nosoul, an omen of worse things to come, and has kept her away from society. To escape her seclusion and learn whether she’ll be reincarnated, Ana travels to the city of Heart, but its citizens are afraid of what her presence means. When dragons and sylph attack the city, is Ana to blame?
Heart
Sam believes Ana’s new soul is good and worthwhile. When he stands up for her, their relationship blooms. But can he love someone who may live only once, and will Ana’s enemies—human and creature alike—let them be together? Ana needs to uncover the mistake that gave her someone else’s life, but will her quest threaten the peace of Heart and destroy the promise of reincarnation for all?”
I read Incarnate as a buddy-read with my friend Becca, who is girlwiththebookinherhand on tumblr, and a group moderator for her group, the No Judgement Book Club. You should join the group if you haven’t already!!! Continue reading
My hope is by posting these “Library Reads” is that: 1 – I remember what I’ve borrowed, when I borrowed it, and 2 – is that maybe you’ll borrow them too! And lastly, these are my thoughts on the books I borrow. Whether I’m looking forward to the story, or am iffy about everything a book promises. All is here!
This month I’ve borrowed, Continue reading
Cataloging the library books and what my thoughts are on them, before reading them!
Lets see what I have out this week!:
Earth Girl by Janet Edwards
According to GoodReads, Earth Girl is a book that is a YA Sci-Fi, with a Post Apocalyptic theme to it. I’m actually very interested in this book. There’s this tone to the book that drew me in. There are people who can; as far as I know, live on any planet. But there are the few who can’t. They’re considered ‘apes’, and ‘throwbacks’. I would say that the synopsis is really well written because it gives us a lot of information, but still leaves the mystery.
A Beautiful Dark by Jocelyn Davies
I told myself that I wouldn’t ever read an Angel themed book, but I can’t seem to stay away from them! Anyway, in this book, the main character is confronted by these two guys who are her age. One she’s falling in-love with and the other she can’t stay away from. I am actually really intrigued.
The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows
What an awesome last name?? The only thing that I know about this book is that people seem to be loving it. I, on the other hand, have speculated about the book and am wary that the story won’t live up to the hype. So this girl is a queen of orphans?? Maybe? I actually have no idea. The cover is really pretty though, so that’s great. Haha.
Awaken by Katie Kacvinsky
Originally published a few years ago, Awaken has been on my TBR for a looong time. I had no idea where I could get this book, so when I randomly searched online for it; on my library’s site, I was surprised that my library had it!
Thanks for reading! Have you taken anything out from your library this week?
Until next time,
Adele.
