November Wrap-Up and December TBR!
8:30 AM
Hi guys! It's the end of November now, which means it's time to see what books I had read this month. November was a busy month for me, and by the time you see this post, I'm in the middle of my finals! But I managed to read all books in my TBR, even managed to read more books than I intended. And I finished 3 series this month. YAAAAS. *pat myself in the back* So here are all the books I read in November:
- Persuasion by Jane Austen ✰✰✰✰
- P.S I Still Love You by Jenny Han ✰✰✰✰✰
- Confess by Colleen Hoover ✰✰✰✰.5
- Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan ✰✰✰.5
- Ignite Me by Tahereh Mafi ✰✰✰✰
- Through the Ever Night by Veronica Rossi ✰✰✰.5
- Into the Still Blue by Veronica Rossi ✰✰✰.5
I'm currently on a reading break, because well, finals. My exams will go until the 2nd week of December I think, which don't give me enough time to read many books. But I'm planning to read some holiday books, to get the christmas spirit!
- Carry On by Rainbow Rowell // I FINALLY GOT IT GUYS!!!
- My True Love Gave to Me by Various Author/ Let it Snow by John Green // Haven't decided which one to read. Maybe both *wink* I'm going to read it from December 12th-December 24th. If you want to see my thoughts of each story, you could add me on Goodreads.
- Bad Romeo by Leisa Rayven // I just thought this book would be a fun read. And the blurb sounds interesting.
- Delirium by Lauren Oliver // Okay, so this one is a re-read. I just want to give this book a second chance and analyze what my problems were with this book.
- Stardust by Neil Gaiman // It's for a reading challenge, a book that was published in 1998 (the year I was born)
- Air Awakens by Elise Kova // It's just sounds epic!
I finished my Goodreads 2015 reading challenge! I reached my target, which is 65 books! YAY!

Nice wrap up! :)
ReplyDeleteGood for you for rereading Delirium and giving it a second chance! I read it and didn't quite like it. It just was meh for me. I feel like I should probably reread it again like you just to figure out what I disliked about it, but I just don't have the heart to do it.

It's actually slightly better the second time, but I still won't continue the series...
DeleteAh, I don't even know where to begin! First of all, I am so happy you got Carry On--it is FANTASTIC. And I also got Stardust this month! I cannot wait to read it. Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite authors. I hope finals are going well for you, I know how difficult those can be! ♥
ReplyDeleteThank you! <33
DeleteFinishing a series is SO HARD TO DO! It's like...you want to finish it, but sometimes the world is so wonderful that you don't want to leave so you prolong it for as long as possible (that happened to me with Laini Taylor's "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" series, hah). So congrats!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd AHHH I am so excited to see the winner's of Cee's YA Book Cover Awards next Friday! :D
Rosie @ Rosie Reads
Thank you! I still need to read Dream of Gods and Monsters... Me too! So many beautiful covers, it was hard to choose!
DeleteGood luck on your finals! Air Awakens is on my tbr for this month! It does sound epic :D I'll be busy this month too, but hopefully I still have time to finish a couple books on my tbr.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I can't wait to start Air Awakens. Good luck with your TBR :D
DeleteNice wrap up! Sounds like you had an amazing month. I'll definitely have to add you on Goodreads to see your thoughts on My True Love Gave to Me - I'm thinking of reading it around Christmas to get me in the festive spirit, so it would be nice to compare thoughts. Good luck in your exams! :)
