The evolution of Mara Dyer is the second book in the Mara Dyer series by Michelle Hodkin, which first book I read last year and loved.
Mara thought she knew was happening to her, she thought she knew what happened the night of the accident with her friends, she though everything was going to be fine until he saw Jude. Jude, her ex boyfriend who was supposed to be dead. The fact that she tries to tell everyone about Jude make her look crazy and with her historic her parents feel the necessity to search for help. What they don’t know is that the help they found might not really be helping Mara.
The evolution of Mara Dyer was a unique book, however I kept getting lost while reading it. First the narrator, Mara is the one who tells us the story, and because she doesn’t know what’s real and what’s not, it makes it difficult to follow. In addition to that there are many names that are close and I kept misplacing Jude and Jamie all the time. The concept although was, in my opinion, extremely unique, but as I couldn’t follow Mara, I felt it wasn’t developed as well as It could be.

To conclude, the evolution of Mara Dyer was a disappointment for me, and even with a unique plot, I had to push myself really hard to finish it.

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...

Wrapping up March and April, plus May TBR

Wow it has been a long time since I posted something, and I know I keep repeating myself but life happens and too many things too little time. Therefore, I will be catching up on March and April. March was a good reading month, but April a disaster. I finished eight books in March, all thanks to Richelle Mead and her captivating spin-off series “Bloodlines”. I did not meet my TBR but once I finished “The Golden Lily”, which was the book in my TBR, I couldn’t stop myself for reaching to the next one in the series, and then the next, and so on until I was done with the series. That means I read: “The golden Lily”, “The Indigo Spell”, “The fiery heart”, “Silver Shadows” and “Ruby Circle”. Luckily even if I felt kind of in no mood to keep going with another book, which we all know happens after series finish. I picked up “Gemina” the second book in the “Iluminae” series by Amy Kauffman and Jay Kristoff and there was no slump. I read the book, which has over six hundred p...
