Monthly Wrap Up + Currently Reading| September 2019

Hey guys!

September was a really slow month for me and ended up being a really bad reading month, unfortunately. 😦

I’ve been struggling with a reading slump since August and my mental health hasn’t been great. I only managed to read two books this month:

Nevernight by Jay Kristoff

This took a loooong time to get through but I ended up really enjoying it. It takes some getting used to the writing style/format but the story is good.

Rating: 3.5 Stars
Full review here!


Godsgrave by Jay Kristoff

This was INCREDIBLE. This was sooo much better than Nevernight, which I did enjoy but this took it to the next level! I loved the setting and the pace of this one so much more.

Review coming soon!


Currently Reading:

Darkdawn by Jay Kristoff
After THAT ending in Godsgrave, I obviously had to pick up this.

Teenage Writings by Jane Austen
This is for a class. I’m doing a module on Jane Austen this semester so prepare for lots of her books to be appearing on my blog!

+ I need to read The Good Luck Girls by Charlotte Nicole Davis ASAP.

Top 5 Wednesday is a weekly meme, GoodReads group here with all the topics + discussion!
This week’s topic is: Books You Didn’t Get to in 2018

Some of these I really wanted to read this month but I’ve been in a reading slump all month. It’s been hell. Hopefully, it won’t continue into 2019.

Obsidio by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff

I read Illuminae back in 2016 and Gemina in 2017 and I just completely forgot to pick this book up. I have forgotten most of the first two books, so I need to reread before getting to this in 2019. I’m currently rereading Illuminae but it’s taking forever since I’m in a slump. I’m hoping it’ll get me out of it!


Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor

I was really hoping to get to this, this month! But Alas, the reading slump killed all my motivation. I didn’t want it to hinder my reading so I decided not to pick this up in case it made me hate it!



The Dark Vault by V.E. Schwab

41564017

Same reason as above. I was really looking forward to this. Guess I’ll try in Jan. *Sobs*



The Silver Queen by Josie Jaffrey

Again, the slump ruined me and didn’t get to pick this up. I really want to pick this up soon but we’ll see!
