So Many Books, So Little Time

Happy Valentine’s Day 💕💕

ready for more spring blooms // 🌷🌷🌷

chilling in bed // reading

There’s no particular reason as to why I haven’t read Carry On. It might be a combination of a lack of interest in the story currently and some negative reviews from trusted friends of mine. For that my copy of Carry On sits on my bookshelf unopened and covered in a thin layer of dust. (hopefully I’ll get to it one day) 

Yes, I do like Rainbow Rowell books. I’ve read all of her novels (adult and young adult) with the exception of Carry On. She is a fantastic writer but my favorite would have to be Fangirl due to how relatable the main character was. Some of the insecurities and problems she had during her first year of college were some of my insecurities and problems I had to deal with too during my first year of university.

Yes, I do have a Goodreads account. Here’s the link if you are interested in checking it out. 

Ideally, he would taller than me (above 170 cm), has a wicked sense of humor and can make me laugh, likes to read, compassionate, doesn’t mind trying new things, and most of all loves me for me (that’s what really matters). 

Study/Soulfinder Series by Maria V. Snyder (together these two series make up the Chronicle of Ixia), The Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson, The Riyria Revelation Series by Michael J. Sullivan, and Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb. 

I’m sure I have a lot that I can’t think of at the moment, but the ones that come to mind immediately include slouching, hoarding, using my electronic devices at night, and procrastinating. 

starting with this // a new year 

The Foxhole Court by Nora Sakavic. 

Happy New Years! (even if it’s a little late) Yes, Name of the Wind is one of my all-time favorite reads to this day. A close second would have to be Pierce Brown’s Red Rising Trilogy. I’m glad to be part of the fan base too. I keep saying I will get to Wise Man’s Fear but the wait for the third book keeps holding me back. I don’t know if I can wait after finishing Wise Man’s Fear (honestly when is he going to give us updates). Who knows, maybe I will get to it this year. I’m currently reading The Lies of Locke Lamora because Pat himself said that it’s better than NotW (not sure how that’s possible though). Anyways, I’m glad to have met another NotW fan. 

You are equally amazing and lovely for saying that. Now to answer your question, I tried reading Matched but ended up not finishing it. The plot didn’t appeal to me and the characters didn’t stand out amongst a bandwagon of other dystopian characters that were (in my opinion) better developed and more interesting at that time. 

Yes, I have read The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater. I loved all the books except for the last one in the quartet, The Raven King. I had some issues with how Maggie ended the story and how she handled a specific character. Other than that, I am all aboard the PYNCH ship (haha).
