January Wrap Up!




I cannot believe that January is over and that it is February! It is simply mind boggling. But anyway, this month I finished one novel, read three novels, and read two graphic novels! (I also put up multiple reviews this month! So check them out if you are interested. Also for easier access, I have added an index of sorts that has the links to all the reviews I have written.)

5271066I started the year off by finishing the Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink. I gave this novel a four out of five stars. I personally liked this novel, but there is a range of feelings on this novel. Some don't like it and some really like it like my mother! :D I personally thought it was really good, but it did have some flaws. I liked the plot line and the characters, but I actually hate a character named Leah because she is evil and ugh. My mom and I had a huge discussion on her character and about a big thing she does in the novel. :)

18363243Next I read Going Down in Flames, which is the first novel in the Going Down in Flames series, by Chris Cannon. I got this book because I was offered an eARC of the second book in the series called Bridges Burned. I gave this book a four out of five stars on Goodreads, but I really would give it a four point five out of five stars. I really liked the world and the dragon shape-shifters! It was really cool. I really love Cannon's writing and characters.

Then I read Bridges Burned by Chris Cannon as previously mentioned. I gave this a five out of five stars! I really loved this book. It was fast paced and the plot was very entertaining. I also once again loved the world and the characters. For a more in depth review check out my blog post for the Release Day Blitz!

1713186919358975Lastly, I read volumes two and three of Saga by Brian K Vaughan and Fiona Staples! FIVE OUT OF FIVE STARS! I absolutely love this series! I was so happy when I finally found the second volume at my local Barnes and Noble and I read both of them one right after the other. I cannot wait to go out and buy the fourth installment!

Night of All Evil by J.M. Shorney

My Rating: 3/5 stars Average Rating: 4/5 stars Format: ebook ISBN13: 9781310806902 I received a free copy in exchange for a honest review from AuthorAmp.com Night of All Evil was a good gothic horror novel about a witch named Freya that has a dark past that comes back to haunt her and her family. Freya was my favorite character and I really enjoyed reading from her point of view. The thing I liked about her was how she acted in the situations she is placed in. She also is just an interesting person that also happens to be a super powerful witch, which is pretty cool. In fact once I started this novel, I had a hard time putting it down. While I really enjoyed reading the story, the character development was just okay and it was kind of predictable. However, it was still a good read that grabbed my attention and kept me entertained.                                                                                                                 Thanks for reading!  

Top 14 Books of 2014!

**These are in no particular order**

DAY ONE! Reading Cram 2.0: Chills and Thrills Readathon! TBR Challenge!

"Oct 24-- TBR challenge- -List what books you are planning to read for the read-a-thon, on your blog, YouTube, etc. You don't have to stick to the list FYI :)"- Juliababyjen These are not in any particular order and I may or may not read these. This is a rough idea of the books I'll be reading or trying to read. Three of the six books were recommended to me by MonsterMen13 on YouTube...well not exactly to me but in general.  Also just because I wrote down six books does not mean I'll get to them or that I will read six books.  **The themes are based off of the summary and friends** Stardust by Neil Gaiman ; started Spooky Theme: Witches... I started this during the Octobathon and did not finish. Horns by Joe Hill Spooky Theme: Thriller, Mystery... I heard about this book from padfootandprangs07 a while back. Then my friend recommended it to me. Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children  By Ransom R
