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!

October Wrap Up - November TBR

Hello again everyone, Today starts a new month and that means that it is time to wrap up the previous month and set this month's TBR. Last month I set an ambitious TBR which I was unable to complete entirely, but I did manage to get a lot read which makes me kind of happy. As I also said on the previous month's post I was going to center this past month's TBR on the "Sweep/ Wicca" series by Cate Tiernan, and that is what I did. I managed to finish the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, and get thought half of the eleventh. I have enjoyed most of this books, however the last two, Seeker and Origins, change the point of view and I have not been able to click with them as I was able to so with the other ones. As for the November TBR, I want to still finish this series, reading the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth and sixteenth books in the series, Eclipse, Reckoning, Full Circle and Night Child. Appart from that, I want to keep finishing s...

The sequel was released in 2014, and the last in the series is expected to be released in 2016. As the book the movie follows Gwendolyn Shepperd, a regular 16-year-old girl who is tired of her family secrets. She will discover them all the moment she discover she carries a rare gene which allows her to travel back in time. Everyone was expecting her cousin to inherit the gene; however, she was the lucky one. She will have to face the order of the count of St. Germain, who have the mission to complete the chronograph, an instrument which allow the travelers to choose the date to which they will travel.
