October Reading Wrap-up

Time for my monthly book summary, this month I went away for a week to Disneyland Paris so I didn't manage to get through as many as usual.

Favourite Childhood Books

Were you a big reader when you were a child? I was and I'm so glad I grew up with a passion for reading. I was never one of those kids who had lots of friends who I would see outside of school, so a high percentage of the time I spent outside school I either had my eyes glued to a games console or head stuck in a book.

My first ever Disneyland Paris trip

This week is a non-bookish post because last week I went to Disneyland Paris for the first time and I had the best time ever. I'm so sad to be back and living a normal, non-Disney life again.



Also I want to show off the 5 different sets of ears I wore over the 5 days, because the three makers deserve all the love and attention. I've put the links to their Instagram's at the bottom of this post.

REVIEW! These Rebel Waves by Sara Raasch

I don't usually have a book review as my weekly post, however I'm currently in Disneyland Paris (head over to my Instagram stories at @captainfurby to see my daily updates), but next week I'll be back to normal with weekly posts.

So anyway, this book came in my August Fairyloot and I really liked the sound of it, I also won a giveaway for the ARC. I buddy read this book, but I couldn't manage to stick to the daily pages and finished it a couple of days ahead of everyone else.

Time for my monthly book summary, as I mentioned last month, I went away with some of my book club, so I managed to get through a little more than the usual amount.

How a book box subscription has changed my life

So at the beginning of September 2017 I signed up for a Book Box Club subscription, I had never even heard of book boxes until just over a month before when I met Libby and Kate at YALC. Warning, this post is going to be very soppy!

REVIEW! The Lost Witch by Melvin Burgess

So this was the book in the July box of Book Box Club, and its the first book I've been angry and disappointed with. It also worries me how many people are giving this book more than 1 star on Amazon and Goodreads... I would give it none if possible. 

There are no trigger warnings, despite this book containing grooming, abuse, rape and victim blaming. This review will contain SPOILERS, and lots of probably incoherent rambling because this book made me angry!

My Auto-Buy Authors

I think the title is pretty self-explanatory but basically this is just a list of the main authors I automatically buy the books from when they release a new book. There actually isn't as many as I thought there were. (Also below book wall from YALC this year because I'm still in love with it).
