I’m finally back from
vacation! And as nice as it was to be away, I’m so glad to back home.
I managed to get
quite a bit of reading done this week, even with being on vacation.
Also, this wrap up is
going to be for all of July, since I didn’t do one last weekend because it wasn’t
a full week.
What
happened on the blog this week?
I haven’t posted much yet this month,
between packing for my trip and then actually being away.
Wednesday (July 1st):
Waiting on
Wednesday #12
I featured The Fixer by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. it sounds awesome and is pitched as “Scandal
meets Veronica Mars” and “Perfect for fans of Pretty Little Liars and Heist
Society” Yes please!!
Thursday (July 2nd): Review:
Heir Of Fire (AKA: The longest review ever)
This is seriously the longest review ever. I had so many thoughts and feelings on Heir
of Fire and it just all came pouring out.
I need to discuss! This review is
definitely spoilery, but check it out if you’ve read Heir of Fire!
Saturday: June
Wrap-Up and July TBR
I recapped all of the books I read in July and showed my July(vacation)
TBR. I managed to read SO MANY books
last month and I’m really proud of it!
Monday: Review: Shadows by Jennifer L. Armentrout
I’d had this review sitting around for a while, so I decided to
schedule it while I was away. Overall, I
enjoyed this Lux series novella, even if I didn’t like it near as much as the
rest of the series.
Wednesday: Waiting on Wednesday #13
I featured Velvet Undercover by Teri Brown. This book looks SO GOOD. I love pretty much anything about spies and
the fact that this is also historical fiction makes it even better.
Friday: Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award
I was nominated by Anjie at Love
Thy Shelf. This was so
much fun! I nominated a few people too
and I look forward to seeing your answers!
What
new books did I get this week?
My True
Love Gave to Me: Twelve Holiday Stories edited by Stephanie Perkins
(and
featuring a whole ton of AMAZING authors)
I’m excited to finally have this
one! There are many authors in this
anthology that I really love and I’m excited to read it when winter rolls
around again.
Legend
by Marie Lu
It finally happened!! I got Legend!
I was so insanely excited to finally be starting this series and it is
amazing so far.
Prodigy
by Maire Lu
Once I read Legend, I had to continue
immediately. Thankfully, there was a
book store where I was so I got the rest of the series (success!)
Champion
by Marie Lu
I’m marathoning! I got this book while I was at the bookstore,
too. I’m about halfway through and I can’t
wait to see how this wraps up!
Ready
Player One by Ernest Cline
You have no idea how excited I am to
finally have this book. I’ve heard so
many fantastic things and I’ve wanted to read this for so long! I’m going to be reading this one very
soon.
What
books did I read this week?
I managed to read
five books the week I was away, which I think is pretty good. The only downside is now I have tons of
review to write.
Legend
by Maire Lu
I FINALLY read Legend. (and it was great) More details to come later
in a series review!!
But let me just say this. I LOVE Day! <3
Prodigy by Maire Lu
I had to marathon these once I read the
first one. I’m enjoying this series a
lot!
Rebel
Belle by Rachel Hawkins
This book looked so cute and I had
wanted to read it for quite a while. I
really enjoyed this book and really liked the characters and story!
Confess by Colleen Hoover
I read my second Colleen Hoover
book! I still think I like Maybe Someday
better but, as I expected, Confess was spectacular.
Amy and
Roger’s Epic Detour by Morgan Matson
Another amazing book by Morgan
Matson. I’ve wanted to read Amy and
Roger for SO LONG and I was definitely not disappointed! I love road trip books and I love Morgan
Matson.
I’m really happy with my reading this
week. I got to read so many books that I’ve
wanted to read for forever. And I love
when I’m able to do that because it just feels so good!
Legend!!!! I hope you love it. I've heard SO many great things about... and even though STILL haven't read it, people keep telling me to ahah. If only my TBR list would allow me to ;) ;)
ReplyDeleteYou got a lot of reading done this week! I loved Legend but never got around to purchasing the sequels. I'm glad you enjoyed Rebel Belle-I have a copy of that one but have yet to read it!

Yay for Legend! I love that series. I really liked My True Love Gave to Me too, it's such a cute wintery read!
ReplyDelete-- Nicola Reads YA
Legend and Ready Player One, I hope you enjoy them plus I love the look of that holiday anthology, it has the cutest cover!
ReplyDeleteHeather @ Random Redheaded Ramblings
Ready Player One is AWESOME. I read it when I didn't know what swear words were. And then...I learned. Haha. Love the book, though. An awesome piece of fiction. I wish I was more mature when I read it!
