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- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
