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.

REVIEW! Lakes of Mars by Merritt Graves

I would like to thank the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with an ARC for Lakes of Mars by Merritt Graves. Unfortunately, I could not finish this book and ended up DNF'ing this at only 17%

My Rating: ★★★



REVIEW! Jinxed by Amy McCulloch

This book came in my August Book Box Club and I really liked the sound of it, also helped by the cat silhouette on the cover. As with the other Book Box Club books, I buddy read this one, although this time the buddy read involved 8 of us being in the same room reading it.

My Rating: ★★★★

August Reading Wrap-up

Time for my monthly book summary, I'm a few days late of posting this one and I'm disappointed that the last book has broken my train of 5/5 stars.

Author A-Z Tag

Something a little different for this week's post, I got this from Jen Campbell's Youtube Channel - hereSome of these were really hard to pick just one author and one book, but I think I did pretty well, although I am annoyed I couldn't find any authors beginning with 'X' and had to settle for there just being an 'X' in the name.
Also below is just a glimpse of part of one of my bookshelves...

Current TBR List

For anyone that knows me well, you'll know that I have a never ending TBR, but I've ever actually thought to jot them all down, until now...

REVIEW! Leah On The Offbeat by Becky Albertalli

First off I'd like to say that I did not read this as quickly as I read Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda BUT I loved it just as much (if not more).

I also need to stress how important it is that you read Simon before you read Leah, otherwise Simon will be completely ruined for you as this takes place a year after.

But this review, like my Simon review (which you can find here), is spoiler free!!!

REVIEW! Heart of Thorns by Bree Barton

Heart of Thorns by Bree Barton was the book we got in the July box of Fairyloot,which as always had some amazing bookish goodies in. Also as well as sprayed pages this book isn't actually released until early September so we got this really early. I buddy read this with some friends (some of whom read ahead and finished the book early cause they couldn't put the book down) and I have to admit I almost did read ahead on more than one of the days.

My LFCC/YALC 2018

It's safe to say that this year's YALC and LFCC was the best (and most expensive) weekend of my life. I came home with 22 new books, memories with some of my favourite people and the knowledge that I have now met all of the living actors who have played Doctor Who (I need Jodie to be announced next year so I can continue that achievement).

REVIEW! The Island by M.A. Bennett

I would like to thank the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with an ARC for The Island by M.A. Bennett. This review will contain spoilers

I actually have this author's other book S.T.A.G.S but haven't got round to reading it yet, but after reading this book I'm definitely bumping S.T.A.G.S higher up on my TBR.


My Rating: ★★★★ (and a half)

YALC Preparations

I can safely say I have never read so many books in such a small amount of time but YALC has given me the motivational (and sometimes stressful) kick up the butt. I have read 15 books in preparation to meet the authors at the three day YALC weekend and the only thing I regret is having to drop 4 books from the TBR because I ran out of time.

So lets go through the list of books I've read in time to get signed this weekend
