This month has been a really good month for my
Reading progress. I have been able to read a total of eleven books, I think it
has been the month in which I‘ve read the most of my entire life! Not only that, I have managed to finish one series (The Infernal
devices trilogy), as well as, being up to date with another one (The Raven
Cycle). In addition to all this, I feel even better because I really liked all
the books I’ve read, and I loved most of them.
The first book I started on the last day of
June and finished right away was Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare, the
second book in the infernal devices trilogy. I found this book really
captivating but less original than the first one, that’s the only reason I gave
it a four out of five stars. (Full review here)
Then run to read City of lost souls by
Cassandra Clare, as well, from her other series in the Shadowhunters world, The
Mortal Instruments, this is the second to last book in the series and it was
amazing, five out of five. (Full review here)
After this, I couldn’t get enough of the
shadowhunters world so I finished the Infernal devices trilogy by reading
Clockwork princess. I really liked this book but the ending put me a little
off, so I ended up giving it a four out of five. (Full review here).
I had to hold myself not to jump right into the
last book of the Mortal Instruments, because that’s next month’s shadowhunter
bookclub book. So I decided to go for the Duff by Cody Keplinger, another
of the books in my ambitious TBR. I loved this book especially how straight
forward it was for being YA; it was a solid five out of five for me.
Then I started Blue Lily, Lily Blue by Maggie
Stiefvater. However, I neded a break from this book since Maggie Stifvater
writing style it’s quite complicated, and ended up reading If I stay by Gayle
Forman. I flew by the book, read it from cover to cover in no time, it was
heart breaking and original, and even though it was a little slow paced I gave
it a five out of five stars.
I finish Blue Lily, Lily Blue right before the
7 in 7 read-a-thon. I liked it, I think this series it’s good, although I found
them really complicated and difficult to follow, and I didn’t enjoy them as
much as I do with other books. I ended up giving this book a three out of five.
And last but not least on Monday 27th
July it started the 7 in 7 read-a-thon, and I ended up reading five more books
on the month of July since the last two will go in my august Wrap Up. As I said
in the entry I dedicated to this read-a-thon I was going to try read the next
seven books in the Seep or Wicca series by Cate Tiernan, so I did. I read The
Coven (Full review here), on Monday, gave it four out of five. On Tuesday as well as Wednedsay I
read Bloodwitch, giving it another four out of five. On Wednesday, as well, I
read Dark Magick, which I loved and ended up giving it a five out of five.
On Thursday I started and almost finished
awakening, however I didn’t ended up finishing it until today’s morning, since
I couldn’t read at all on Friday. Let’s hope I have a good reading weekend and finish
my challenge.
As for my August TBR, I can’t help but being a
little ambitious since I’ve read this much this month; however I don’t want to
push myself that much. First we have the last three books in the 7 in 7
read-a-thon TBR: Spellbound, The Calling and Changeling by Cate Tiernan, books
seven and eight in the Sweep series.
Then I aim to finish
two more series: The Mara Dyer series and the Lynburn Legacy trilogy. To
accomplished that I must read The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer and the Evolution of
Mara Dyer both by Michelle Hodkin; As well as, Untold and Unmade by Sarah Rees
Brennan.
Thanks for reading,
