Unfinished Series Part 2

Image
Hello! A while ago I did a post about some of my unfinished series. Since I am a terrible reader and the list of unfinished series has only grown, I’ve decided to give you an update on that list! I read Rebel Belle back when it first came out and LOVED it! It really is a quick and fun read that still has some amazing characters. Sadly I haven’t had the chance to read any of the other books in the series yet, but I really want to continue the series in April when book three comes out! When B lue Lily Lily Blue came out and I decided to wait to pick it up. When I finally picked it up in May of last year I was already getting into a reading slump that I just recently got out of. I might wait until The Raven King comes out then binge the whole series over again in order to catch up. I was late to the party with this series considering I didn’t start reading Cinder until last May, but I really enjoyed it! Then I moved onto Scarlet in the fall, but of course the d...

Cinder Review

Image
I had heard numerous amazing things about Cinder by Marissa Meyer before I was finally convinced to pick it up. I was put off by the cyborg element and how that would tie into the retelling, but I eventually picked the book up a year ago from my school library. I read halfway through the book and I really started to enjoy it but then I had to return the book to the library. I hadn’t had the chance to pick the book back up and finish it until now! Humans and androids crowd the raucous streets of New Beijing. A deadly plague ravages the population. From space, a ruthless Lunar people watch, waiting to make their move. No one knows that Earth’s fate hinges on one girl. . . . Cinder, a gifted mechanic, is a cyborg. She’s a second-class citizen with a mysterious past, reviled by her stepmother and blamed for her stepsister’s illness. But when her life becomes intertwined with the handsome Prince Kai’s, she suddenly finds herself at the center of an intergalactic struggle, and a forb...

Book Haul

Hello! So lately I’ve been doing pretty well with not buying too many books but I kind of broke that record when I went to a small bookstore near my house today… But that’s good for y’all because now I can do a BOOK HAUL! I really enjoyed Libba Bray’s book The Diviners that I read a while back so when I saw this book for cheap I had to pick it up! I’m excited to read more of Libba Bray’s work; I think I’ll enjoy it! I read my first Caroline B Cooney book back in middle school when I read Flight 116 is Down . Ever since then I have wanted to read more of her books so when I was walking through my local bookstore and found a bunch of used Caroline B Cooney books for cheap, I had to buy one. I originally started reading this book last year but I had to stop since it was a library book, but now that I will be going to Book Con I want to finish Cinder so that I can get it signed. I have already started rereading/ finishing this one, and I can already tell I am going to l...
