June Wrap up/July TBR!

Hey guys! How are you? 

I'm just going to come out and say that June was a really bad reading month for me... I only completed two books and got a chunk of reading done in some others. I read Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead and Demon's Blood by Shari Sakurai. I wrote a review for Demon's Blood, which was a really good book and I will include the link to the review below if you are interested. Funny thing is that both books I completed were about vampires, even though they were totally two different types of vampires, while still being thoroughly enjoyable. On the other hand, I started reading Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake, which I finished in the beginning of this month, and I read Apt. Pupil from Different Seasons by Stephen King. Apt. Pupil was good, but not my favorite story from Stephen King and Anna Dressed in Blood was awesome and it got a 5 out of 5 stars from me. 

As for my July TBR, I'm going to be reading The Talisman by Stephen King because my friend wants someone to talk to about it and I'm highly enjoying it. It's over nine hundred pages, so wish me luck since I have very little motivation lately. I'm also going to be reading Severance by Michael Pritsos and Night of All Evil by J.M. Shorney for review. If I can, I will also be reviewing Perfect World by Shari Sakurai.

Severance by Michael Pristsos and Jessica Mastroakos

My Rating: 3.5/5 Stars Average Rating: 3.67 Stars Pages: 380 ISBN-13: 9871500392710 *I received a free copy of Severance in exchange for an honest review* "To be born Gaian is to be born gifted. That wasn’t always true, but as more infants were born with special talents of the mind, what was once considered abnormal became the majority. The ungifted were sent to Thalassa, an island chain off the coast of the mainland. These orphans grew up in a vassal kingdom forced to pay dues to its overseers.  In Severance, the first book of The Sovereign, a Thalassan soldier and orphan gets wind of a plot against his island home and wages war against its oppressors. A captain’s daughter fights for a love across the cultural divide. An assassin’s need for power takes him on a bloody journey throughout both lands. And a princess tells the biggest lie in her nation’s history, protecting her family’s right to rule."- Goodreads  Severance was a good novel about the struggles tho...

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.                        ...
