SEPTEMBER WrapUp - OCTOBER TBR

Last month was a total success. I read a total of 6 books and a half, which means I finished 7 books. Therefore, I think is the month I have read the most in the whole year. Most of the books have its individual reviews already posted, and if you are interested on any of them you are invited to check those out.


First of all, I finished “Daughter of Smoke and Bone” by Laini Taylor, which I highly enjoyed and I think was a really good first book in a series I am pretty sure its going to be an awesome fantasy series.

“Requiem” by Lauren Oliver. I enjoyed this book as I was reading it, however I think it was a pointless book, especially since it was supposes to be the ending of a series and it didn’t conclude the series.

“ElCorredor del Laberinto” / “The Maze Runner” by James Dashner. I wasn’t planning on reading this book this month, but I wanted to read the book before going to the cinema. I thought this was a very good book, maybe a little more oriented towards a younger public, but still really good.

“Last Sacrifice by Richelle Mead. This was a fantastic conclusion to a very unique and awesome vampire series.

“Allegiant” by Veronica Roth. This controversy ending to a well-known series was, in my opinion, a good conclusion to the series.

“Of Neptune” by Anna Banks. This was the final book in the Of Poseidon series, which was a mermaid series I have enjoyed a lot. The last book wasn’t as good, still pretty enjoyable.

“If I should Die” by Amy Plum. This was the last book in the Revenant series, a good supernatural romance series, which I really liked. I thought its ending was everything I have expected, maybe a little too obvious, but really likeable in the end.

Of course, for October I couldn’t thing of a better theme than Halloween. Therefore I choose kind of creepy books as well as some related with supernatural elements and witches. The only other thing I might read is a Jane Austen book, because I heard of the Jane Austen book club hosted by Zoë from readbyzoe. This month is "Mansfield Park", which I had in physical copy. I found what a better time to read the book that now.

As for my Halloween reads:
“The Diviners” by Libba Bray. I heard this book is quite scary and I thought It would be perfect
“The Coldest Girl in Coldtown” by Holly Black. Not quite scary but with Vampires.
“The unbecoming of Mara Dyer” by Michelle Hodkin. Another book I heard was quite creepy.
“The Dolls” by Kiki Sulivan. A book who is said mix paranormal with Pretty Little Liars. I love pretty little liars, and those books are quite creepy on its own, so I cant wait to find out how about this one.
“Sweep” by Cate Tiernan. Benjaminoftomes doesn’t stop talking about this series. He said it is the best witches series he has ever read. And he has read quite a lot.

"The Carrier of the Mark” by Leight Fallon.  I have had this book for quite a long time and 2supernatural fits with this month, so I decided to get on it.
I hope this month goes as good as the past one and I can make trough my ambitious TBR.
Thanks for reading!
