“Heartless” is another fairytale retelling from the “Lunar chronicles” author Marissa Meyer. This retelling tells the story of the Queen of Hearts and how she became the heartless queen Alice met when she went to wonderland.

Catherine has always had one dream, to be the best baker in all the reign of Hearts. However, everything complicates when a new joker arrives to the kingdom and when the king seems to be willing to make her his queen.

“Heartless” was a good book but it did not captivated me. I started liking the book and thinking I was really going to enjoy it. However, towards the middle it got a little bit confused and quite boring and I had to pushed myself to keep reading the book. The ending though was quite interesting and really well developed. As I said I liked the book and the explanation it gave to the reason behind the cruelty of the queen of hearts from Alice in Wonderland.

I would recommend the book to the one that love the story of “Alice and Wonderland”

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...
