Hello everyone! Happy Thursday :)

So, I saw this tag on Chuckle's blog @ Chuckle's Book Cave who read the tag on Katherine's blog @ I Wished I Lived In a Library. I had so much fun reading the answers that I decided to do this tag myself. I won't tag anyone for this tag, but if you want to participate you can :) Let me know if you participate down below so I can read your answers too! Alright, onto the tag.

The Next Five (#4)

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Here are the next five books that I'll be reading. Hopefully I'll be able to read faster than usual thanks to audiobooks! With work, finding time for me to read is a bit difficult. All of these books will be rated on a 5-scale rating system when I finish them. If you've read any of the books that I've mentioned, let me know what you've thought of them! No spoilers please :) Here are my thoughts of the books while I read their descriptions. All of the descriptions are taken from Goodreads. 

1. Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody

Book Review: Renegades by Marissa Meyer

Author: Marissa Meyer

Series: Yes - Book #1 in the Renegades series. 

Cover: I really enjoy this cover. It gives me a very comic book feel. The font and color for Renegades is so simple and contrasting with the rest of the colors.

Rating: 5/5 I don't think I've read a superhero YA book before. At least from the top of my head I don't remember reading any. This book was amazing from start to finish. Meyer is such a talented writer.

Hello everyone. Happy Thursday!

Holy smokes ladies and gents. It is super duper hot where I am at the moment. I am not a fan of the heat. I am reading Renegades by Marissa Meyer at the moment and about 90% done. Therefore, the review of this book shall be out soon! 

I was nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award by Noel @ BOOKSandCaffine and D.V. @ D. Books and Reviews. Thank you so much you two for being so sweet and thinking of me. This is going to be a fun post! I love these posts because you can visit many new blogs from other posts. Alright, here we go!

Book Review: Restore Me by Tahereh Mafi

Author: Tahereh Mafi

Series: Yes - Book #4 in the Shatter Me series.

Cover: One of my favorite covers ever. This series has the most stunning covers. White is my favorite color, so this design just went through the roof with me.

Rating: 5/5 This was the book that I was waiting ALL YEAR for. I am so glad that I finally got to read it. It was everything that I hoped for and even better!

Ten Literary Characters That Grind My Gears

HAPPY WEDNESDAY EVERYONE!

I feel like in my many years of reading random books across many genres, I have encountered a couple of characters that have ruffled my feathers. Generally, I consider myself a pretty lenient reader and I rate books fairly lax. But once in a blue moon, I will meet a character that irritates me. Honestly, if I could meet these characters in real life, I may have given them a smack down already. Now, all of these mini rants are my own personal feelings toward those characters. If you love them, that is great for you! I'm not here to pick a fight with anyone and I don't want you guys to hate me because I hate some fictional character. <3 <3 <3

Anime Review: Kakegurui

Where to Watch: Netflix

Episodes: 12

Genres: Drama, Game, Mystery, Psychological, and School

Rating: 8/10 This anime wasn't what I was expecting, but I was pleasantly surprised by it. This anime is also for 17+ viewers as well, so keep that in mind! 

Book Review: The Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa

Author: Julie Kagawa

Series: Yes - Book #3 in The Iron Fey series.

Cover: This cover has my least two favorite things for covers. One, the color pink and two, a model in the front. 

Rating: 3/5 I had high hopes for book #3, but unfortunately, I still don't think the series is my cup of tea. Book #3 is MUCH better than Book #2, but it is still a 3/5 for me.

The Mid Year Freak Out Book Tag

Happy Saturday everyone!

I've been seeing people do this tag and I thought that it would be fun if I could join as well! Half of the year has officially passed. Summer is here which means more free time. I'm also not a fan of heat so I have even more excuses to stay indoors and read. It is looking like a good half year so far :) Thank you to Book Ballistic for the inspiration for this tag.
