August Wrap Up and September TBR

Hi!

August was not a great reading month for me. I still wanted to post this update so you guys can see what I'm in the middle of. I want to review the two books I read in August one will hopefully be up this week.

Books Finished

The Wall of Nova by Corrin A Hester

Rating 5 stars.

Read from July 31st-August 19th

I read this because a friend said the author was looking to get buzz about the book. I really enjoyed the story, but there are trigger warnings. I will discuss them when I do my review but over all, I really enjoyed this story.

Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills

Rating 5 stars

Read from August 13th- August 30th

It has been a while since I flew through a book as fast I flew through Foolish Hearts. I wasn't even reading the book every day but this book is that good. My favorite character was Claudia and this was my favorite read of the month. I want to do a full review but this was my first Emma Mills book and she is a fantastic write I can see why so many book bloggers read her.

Currently in the middle of  reading

Soul of Stars (Heart of Iron # 2) by Ashley Poston 62% done

This is the final book in this duology and I think I'm trying to extend it out as much as I can. I want to finish this book soon but also I want to stay in the story for as long as possible. This book is fantastic so far and I love the story.

Carry On Simon (Simon Snow # 1) 36% done

I started this in the beginning of August. This is a reread for me but I'm enjoy the story more the second time. Once this is done depending on the day, I will go right into Wayward Son. I love Baz and Simon.

Hello Girls by Brittany Cavallaro and Emily Henry 25% done

I got this book around release day when it was a First Five and I knew I wanted to buy it so I went on Amazon within the hour. I'm enjoying this story and I love the two main characters Winona and Lucy. This story is fantastic and although the first protion of the book is tough, I'm at a fun part of the book now I think.

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday books/ series I would recommend to someone who says don’t like to read.

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl . This weekly meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Each week, Jana will post a topic, and we will all make a list based on that topic. This week, the topic is Books Written Before I Was Born ( These can be books you’ve read or want to read! ) ( submitted by Davida Chazan @ The Chocolate Lady’s Book Review Blog ). I wasn’t feeling this, and so I went through and found a post from The Broke & the Bookish, and I did that. The original post can  be found here . I thought I would recommend some books from some of my favorite genres.   The Classics 1- Pride & Prejudice This is one of my favorite classics, and when making my list this week, I knew I needed to include it. The reason is that I think this is one of the best books by Jane Austen, and we use the story in a lot of modern media. 2- To Kill A Mocking Bird I was so surprised by how much...
