The Lies of Locke Lamora (Gentleman Bastard #1) by Scott Lynch | Girl in Pieces by Kathleen Glasgow | A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman | Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli | Nevernight (Nevernight Chronicle #1) by Jay Kristoff
Hello,
This January, I finally restarted my blog. I'm quite busy but I've posted a few reviews. I hope you guys check them out. The Star-Touched Queen was a really lovely book and the writing is too beautiful to pass! Damaged Goods, while not a very strong prequel, was still able to follow-up Genesis Girl well. And Dark Waters, while it disappointed me a bit, I'm still quite excited to read the next book 'cause Adele is an amateur sleuth that's worth following.
This month, I spent my holiday money buying books (DUH! What else is there to buy anyway?). Since I started my internship this January, my commute to-and-from the office prompts me to pass by a bookstore (and a lovely one too!). Good thing or a bad thing? You tell me! (lol).
Also, since I decided to moderate all comments before posting them on my blog, I ended up not seeing them! Since I started my blog, I honestly thought that no one was reading or dropping by or commenting on my blog. I was a bit sad but still decided to continue posting. THEN before drafting this post I randomly checked the comments section of my blogger sidebar and found ALL the pending comments. I really thought blogger would email me or something. ugh. SOOOO, sorry for all the delay, hahaha. I just replied to everything! Thanks, you guys!

How about you guys, what books did you got this month? Got anything you've been searching for? Got a newly released book? What are you reading? Loving it? Hating it? Getting bored? Found your next fave? Let's chat!
let's connect!
Aghhhhhh you got Simon and Nevernight! Prepare for the fluffy and #stabstabstab feels, because both are really good. I want Girl in Pieces so bad, and I hear it is a very good book. I hope you enjoy all of the books that you got this month. :)
ReplyDeleteI KNOW! I had to grab Simon immediately the moment I saw Nick Robinson in the cast for the film. Also, when I finally saw Nevernight at Fullybooked I just had to have it. I actually panicked a little (???) when I saw Girl in Pieces 'cause it always go out of stock. UGH. Hope you find and grab a copy soon Thanks, Bianca :)
DeleteIt's great that you're back in the Book Blogging community! Welcome back! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cova! :)
DeletePassing a bookstore always has to be a good thing right...? I just got a quiet kind of thunder which is going to be my next read and I'm so excited about it. I just finished reading a book called 'made you up' as well and it's one of my new favourite books ever, I loved it. Great post by the way!!
ReplyDeleteExcept when your wallet is empty. hahaha. Hmmm.. I've never heard of Quiet Kind of Thunder. I hope you enjoy it though. I checked it out and it sounds good. Also, so nice to know you loved Made You Up! It's been on my tbr since last year. I'd have to pick it up soon. Thanks, Kirsty :)
DeleteThe Star-Touched Queen is on my TBR list so I'm glad to hear you liked it. I love Simon Vs.!! It is such a good book and I hope you love it too. Thanks for stopping by my post earlier :)

The writing of the Star-Touche Queen is soooo beautiful and the romance is swoon-worthy. I hope you love it as much as I did :D I'm hoping to read Simon this February (hopefully). You're welcome :)
DeleteYou got a lot of books. I hope you love all of your new books.

I'm really hoping to read Princess Dracula soon since it's a really short read also since it's not my usual read. Thanks, Jessica :)
DeleteOoooh! Princess Dracula looks so good! I'm definitely going to have to check that out! The cover is gorgeous too :D

Yup, Princess Dracula definitely looks great. Definitely one of the reasons that made me pick it for Kindle Scout :)
DeletePrincess Dracula sound pretty awesome and I'm loving the cover. I've heard good things about Future Shock and am pretty sure I own it somewhere (probably on my Kindle). Nice haul and great blog.
ReplyDeleteProbably at the bottom of your Kindle books, hahaha. It happens to me. I tend to forget books that I downloaded and hold off for like forever. Thanks, Barb :)
