February Wrap Up and March TBR

Clockwork Princess (The Infernal Devices, #3)Hey everyone!
This past month was a great reading month for me. I read seven books and I really enjoyed all of them! Since I didn't get to do book reviews on all of these books, I thought it would be a good idea to just generalize my thoughts on each of these books.

September Wrap Up and October TBR

Hey everyone!
Today I'm doing my September Wrap Up and my October TBR. To be honest, September wasn't a great reading month. I read 1 and about 3/4 of a book. But in October, there are many new releases that I'll be reading!

WRAP UP
So I randomly decided to reread The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan this month. Oops?
I also started reading Insight by Jamie Magee (it was free) but I haven't finished it yet!

TBR
This is a bit more exciting. I might reread Insurgent by Veronica Roth to refresh myself.
I will also be reading these new releases:
  • The House of Hades by Rick Riordan (4/5 Heroes of Olympus)
  • Allegiant by Veronica Roth (3/3 Divergent)
  • Unsouled by Neal Shusterman (3/3 Unwind)
  • Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken (2/3 The Darkest Minds)
  • Altered by Gennifer Albin (2/3 Crewel)
I'm looking forward to this month's reading! Thanks for reading, Kait

August Wrap-Up and September TBR

Hey everyone!
Since August is almost over, you know it's time for a wrap-up! I didn't read a lot this month (5 books, 3 being for school). I'm saving my money for October for all of the new sequels, so I haven't bought any new books. Anyways, here are the five books I read this month and my thoughts!

June Wrap Up & July TBR

Hey everyone!
Today I'll be sharing the books that I read in June and what I'm planning on reading for this month.

JUNE WRAP UP
  • The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken (review here)
  • The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan (review here- for whole trilogy)
  • The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan
  • The Serpent's Shadow by Rick Riordan
  • Across the Universe by Beth Revis (review here)
  • A Million Suns by Beth Revis (Do not have a review for this one and Shades of Earth, if you would like to see one, let me know!)
I just finished Shades of Earth yesterday, but since it was July, it doesn't count! Just to let you all know!

JULY TBR
REREADS:
  • City of Bones
  • City of Ashes
  • City of Glass
  • City of Fallen Angels
  • City of Lost Souls
      All by Cassandra Clare. Yes, I'm planning on rereading TMI this month. I might stop after the first three because I have a lot of other books I want to reread, but I'll see how far I get. The Diviners might take a while- it's thick, and I have read books this thick in two days, but I'm not sure how much the story will capture me! It's kind of intimidating!

Thanks for reading! -Kait

April Wrap Up and May TBR

Hey everyone!
As May begins, it means a new wrap up and TBR post! This is a little more productive, for lack of a better word. I hope you all had a great April and are looking forward to May.

APRIL WRAP UP
I reread three books: Percy Jackson and the Olympians 1-3: The Lightning Thief, The Sea of Monsters, and The Titan's Curse. I read four new books this month as well.
Rise (Eve, #3)The first book I read was Unravel Me by Taherah Mafi- the second book in the Shatter Me trilogy. You can read more of what I have to say here, but overall I enjoyed it!
The next book I read was a stand-alone: The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. I also have have a review here, so I'm not going to go in detail. To be honest, I was expecting more of this book, but I still loved it!
After that, I finally got around to reading Rise by Anna Carey which is the third and final installment of the Eve trilogy. Coming from a point of view where this trilogy isn't my favorite, I did enjoy Rise. I think Eve is still my favorite, but I liked it more than Once. And the ending- I had to look it up on Goodreads to make sure I wasn't inferring the wrong thing!
The last book I read was Cinder by Marissa Meyer- the first book in the Lunar Chronicles. I loved the concept of this book, with all the fantasy and sci-fi mixed! I definitely recommend it!
Scarlet (Lunar Chronicles, #2)
MAY TBR
I planning on finishing the Beautiful Creatures series. I'm currently reading the second one, but I've been having no time to read lately! I loved Beautiful Creatures- I read it in two days. I'm really excited to see where this series goes!
Next, I'll be reading Scarlet by Marissa Meyer, the second book in the Lunar Chronicles. I'm also excited to see where this series will be turning to and about our "Red Riding Hood" this time!
I'm not planning on thinking about what book I'm going to read next. When the time comes, I'll probably pick one. But I think I'm going to try to get to The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken. I hear amazing things about this book and I can't wait to read it! If I still have a lot of reading time, I'll probably start the Kane Chronicles by Rick Riordan! Thanks for reading! -Kait

March Wrap Up and April TBR

Hey everyone!
Hope you had a great Easter if you celebrate! Today's post is what I read in March and what I hope to be reading in April. Let me tell you ahead of time: this will be a short post. I don't have a job, and when it comes to always wanting to buy books, not rent them, sometimes reading gets put off.

March Wrap Up:
In the beginning of the month I read the final installment to the Delirium trilogy, Requiem by Lauren Oliver. As well as the Delirium Stories. I enjoyed Requiem very much, but I just wish it had a little more insight of what's to come. I still gave it a 5/5, but the ending bothered me a bit. Delirium Stories were great! I already read the Hana one, so I read Annabel and Raven which I loved! 5/5. I also recently reread Divergent for the fourth time and I plan on rereading Insurgent soon, too. I read many samples on my phone, like the first chapter of a book type-thing. But I won't list them because it would take a long time.

April To Be Read:
My birthday is in April, but late April. Therefore, some of the books I'm asking for and will have to order may not come in until late April, and because of that, I will probably end up reading most of them in May. But here are a few I'm dying to read in the next few months. If you saw my Birthday Wishlist post, these may be familiar!

~Beautiful Creatures Box Set: Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl (Have to read 2,3, and 4.)
~The Infernal Devices Box Set: Cassandra Clare (I know, some of you may be fangirling right now.)
~The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer: Michelle Hodkin
~Unravel Me: Taherah Mafi
~Rise: Anna Carey

I'm also hoping to reread Insurgent, like I said, and City of Bones! Thanks for reading, Kait
