Mehso-so

I was kind of really disappointed in this book and the characters. Peter K just kept upsetting ever since P.S. I Still Lobe You, and this book did not help his case. The ending felt really rushed for me and I would‘ve liked it to have had more I guess

The Hazel Wood | Melissa Albert

Omfg I am dying reading this book. I just want it to end. I‘m a little over halfway through the book and I‘m barely interested in it now, at this point I‘m reading it just so it‘ll be done 😕

RaimeyGallant Good to know! 7y
bookcyns @RaimeyGallant it got so much better and I loved the ending, I just wish it hadn‘t taken me reading over half of it to finally get interested in the book 7y
RaimeyGallant I know that feeling. 7y

Coraline | Neil Gaiman

Forgot to post this but this is what my boyfriend got me for Valentine‘s Day ❤️ I‘ve been asking for Coraline for months now. And he had heard that I wanted a book that had pirates in the title so he haaaad to buy it for me because “I need more pirates in my life.” Then he bought me some pop figures, I think he‘s trying to complete my Stranger Things collection ❤️ #DaughterofthePirateKing #Coraline #StrangerThings

I got my #bookmail early! Yayyyyy. I‘m so excited to read Wonder Woman & Scythe & The Queen‘s Rising!!! I‘ve been wanting to read Scythe for months now. And I will admit I thought Wonder Woman would be a waste but now I can‘t wait! The Queen‘s Rising was kind of an impulse buy but damn it‘s so pretty 🖤 #WonderWoman #Scythe #TheQueensRising

Red Queen | Victoria Aveyard
post image
Mehso-so

3/5 STARS
Okay as said before I think the story was okay, but I had my major problems with it, mainly because it seemed like a rewrite of The Hunger Games. If I had not listened to the audio book then there is a very good chance I never would have finished the book.
I‘m still torn about my feelings for the book and am debating whether to keep reading the series or not

RANT:
Oh my gods please tell me I‘m not the only one who thinks that Red Queen is seriously just The Hunger Games rewritten and slightly altered?!?! Don‘t get me wrong, I like it, but I‘m just disappointed. Since page one I felt that way, then it kind of went on it own way but then BAM! THG to a tee. I‘m gonna finish reading/listening to it tomorrow. I really hope it doesn‘t keep mimicking THG #RANT

A List of Cages | Robin Roe

Pickpick

This is a quick feelsy read that I definitely would recommend. If I had been able to I would‘ve read it in one sitting, I never wanted to put it down.
In my opinion it reminded me of The Fault In Our Stars, so if you liked that feelsy book, then this might be a book for you,though it‘s a different kind of sad. It didn‘t make me cry though, but my chest did hurt quite a few times. #AListOfCages #RobinRoe

Today‘s book haul from the local used book store. I finally bought The Hunger Games since I don‘t have my own copy and I got Eragon since I‘ve always wanted to read it yet I never have. #bookhaul #TheHungerGames #Eragon

I really thought I‘d like this book, the beginning is interesting but the Law & Order section is killing me. I‘m kind of ready to just give up on this one 😕

Artsywink I got past the law and order short story and didn‘t like the stories after that. I might bail as well. 7y
parasolofdoom I just now skipped that one after a couple pages, I didn't understand what it was since I've never seen that show. 7y

The Young Queens | Kendare Blake
post image
Pickpick

I‘m glad for this little filler book. It made me have some compassion for Mira, whom I hated all throughout Three Dark Crowns. I felt sorry for Katherine, who I can‘t bring myself to hate no matter what she does. And it only strengthens my love for Arsinoe ❤️
Also it helped me to surpass my reading challenge by one book 😊

EchoLogical SAME! I literally just finished writing the same things on another post: I don‘t hate Mirabella as much and I‘m still pulling for Kat. 😭 7y

So for the first time ever, I finished my reading challenge this year. I managed to read 15 books and it‘s not even December yet! I‘m so happy I did it.

Three Dark Crowns | Kendare Blake

I'll admit I was kinda bored reading the first 3/4ths of this book, but I was determined to finish it and I'm so glad I did. The last quarter of the book picks up and omg plot twists. I frickin love Arsinoe 🖤 I can't wait to read the second one #ThreeDarkCrowns #KendareBlake #iloveit

I'm nearly done with this book and oh my gods, I love Bane. I can't stand Githany, I know she's just being a good Dark Side Apprentice, but I hate her because she just uses Bane AND HE LETS HER. It upsets me so much, he deserves better. #StarWars #DarthBane #PathOfDestruction #StarWarsLegends #DrewKarpyshyn

I had heard that this was a great read and don't get me wrong, it's good. The poetry isn't the best, but it's good/decent. I was slightly disappointed because I expected it to be amazing, oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

oh my gods I'm so goddamn pissed off. I'm not even done with it but the Wizard is pissing me off and so is the Headmistress. The way they treat the Animals and all that racist bullshit and the way they're trying to brainwash the kids. Oh my fucking god i was getting so many feels in Starbucks and I was trying so hard to not look weird but I failed #wicked #gregorymaguire #ranting #bookrants

morevna I can relate. I felt the same way about it, and it does make this book an important read. 7y

I've finished two of the three Bukowski books I own, now to read the biggest. Can't wait to read more of his amazing poetry 😍 #CharlesBukowski #poetry #favoritepoet

Honestly I expected this book to be a lot better than it was. I heard all this hype and I'm sadly disappointed. It was kind of confusing switching between Hannah and Clay's thoughts 24/7. And I feel bad for saying this but I felt like Hannah was really whiny. I don't feel like the characters were all that great and I hate to say it but I liked the show a lot better 😐 anywhale time to move onto Taming Of The Shrew #thirteenreasonswhy #jayasher
