Look what I just got! I‘m excited but at the same time my expectations are LOW ....the quality of this series has just decreased with each book 📚

As a longtime fan of many Alice in Wonderland related things, I decided it was finally time to read the actual novel by Lewis Carroll. I really wanted to love it but sadly, the original source material just doesn't do it for me. It was boring to read and I was so so so disappointed by it. It may be unfair to judge in comparison to the movie but I found that so much of the charm I'd seen in the animated movie version, just wasn't there in the book.

The pacing is good, the plot is great and the characters are developed perfectly. I particularly like what Miller did with John Proctor‘s character, I enjoyed analyzing his actions in comparison to his concept of himself. Abagail is also interesting to analyze but I found her to be a less complex character and I was content with what happens to her in the end. John Proctor also got a fitting end but in a different way than Abigail.

Started reading this book, I actually bought it for a class but we only had to read some of the essays in the book I‘m finally going to read the whole thing

Thanks for the tag @Powered_By_Plants hope your reading is coming along
This month I‘m looking forward to reading The First Time she Drowned- I was told that it was a guaranteed cry and I‘m in the mood to be destroyed.
My favorite thing to do in the summer is relaxing and taking time for myself.
Something that made me smile recently was watching Avatar the last air bender with my significant other

1. I‘m writing this from the armpit of SoCal 👋
2. My favorite lockdown read is The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, it was nice reading something new yet familiar
3. My ideal novel length is around the 300 page mark, I can do 500 page books with not much difficult but prefer a nice 200-300 pg. book

I‘m 60% through and I‘m still wondering why this book is getting so much hate - like yes it‘s not as good as the original Hunger Games Trilogy but it‘s not terrible and I‘m really enjoying it. I‘ve been re-reading a lot of stuff and this is like the first book I‘ve read that is completely new to me

Not so much “a-MAZE-ing” …….

Riding the high of finishing the entire Maze Runner Trilogy film adaptations, I picked up the first book in the series. At the time, I was really trying to get back into the habit of reading, but I just hadn‘t found the right book yet. I was hoping, since I enjoyed the movies so much, that this would be that book. While it was not a terrible first choice, it definitely did not have that “it” factor.

I went into a reading slump for no reason, so I decided to just ride the wave - was about to pick up a new book but was informed that I could expect this book in the mail!

“Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of someone else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something”

As a long time fan, I really wish I could have been able to get an advanced copy. Maximum Ride is my favorite series!

My reading time was interrupted and I only got to read 12 pages

After being a huge fan of everything Alice in Wonderland themed, including books (or retellings/reimaginings) I‘ve finally decided to read the actual book

I‘m taking notes to write a review, it will be my first review ever! I‘m so excited!!!
