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- 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- Book characters linked to Halloween candy!!

Welcome Back! I know I’ve been saying that I will be back and blogging more. Life happened last week, I had an appointment last week, and I just got lazy after that. I’m planning to be back more this week and get posting again this week. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl .  This was born out of a love of lists and bringing the bookish community together. This week is a Halloween Freebie. I’m not into the horror or mystery genres. I wanted to do my top 8 Halloween candies and pick a character that reminds me of them. 1- Chocolate Rhys from A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas because he is smooth. This was a no brainier for me. Rhys is smooth, and he always knows what to say. He is charming and flirtatious so he was reminds me of chocolate no question. 2- Reese’s cups Claudia from Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills because she is sweet but has the determination to get what she wants. I read this book ...
