Bout of Books Day 6 Wrap up

Today being Saturday was a really busy day for me especially since I had a dinner party during the night. I normally do most of my reading at night once the children are in bed but the dinner party did not finish till late so I just went to bed once it was all over.

So yesterday I ended up reading a grand total of 28 pages of All the Bright Places. I was hoping to finish this book by the end of the week forgetting I had a christening to attend to tonight so once again not sure how much ill get read today.

Good luck to everyone that is participating in the readathon.

Bout of Books Day 5 Wrap up

Today I just continued reading All the Bright Places. Had a busy day today as I am having a dinner party tomorrow and needed to go buy everything I needed and get everything ready which took up a lot of my day.

I ended up reading 40 pages of it today and not sure how much more I will be able to read tomorrow but I am hoping to finish it by the end of the readathon and I will therefore have finished all the books in my tbr.

Don't know how I feel about this book so far. I am liking the story and enjoying it but I feel that I am not really connecting to the characters. This book is about suicide and because of that I thought it would be pulling at me a lot more but I am not really feeling anything.

Ill see how the rest of the book goes and do a full review once I am finished.

On that note I have a few reviews scheduled for this channel next week so keep an eye out for those.

Currently Reading

I have been known to read multiple books at once. I normally read a physical book, an ebook (for when I am out and about) and sometimes listen to an audiobook. The last couple of weeks I have been in a reading slump which has left me not really enjoying what I am reading. This has caused me to have 3 books on my currently reading shelf as I keep picking one up not really enjoying it and then picking up another one.

So at the moment Im currently reading:


Shadow Kiss is the third book in the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead. I have this on my kindle so mostly read this when I am out and about and wanting something to read. At the moment I am 43% done with this book and overall enjoying it so far.

The next book on my list is The Assassins Blade by Sarah J Maas. This is a prequel to the Throne of Glass Series with 5 novellas bound up in one book. The novellas are based on Celeana's experiences/life before Throne on Glass and how she came to be the assassin that she is. I have been taking this book slowly and just reading a novella whenever I feel like it. So far I have read 3 out of the 5 novellas and given each of them 3 stars.

Finally I picked up I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson today after finishing White Hot Kiss by Jennifer L Armentrout last night (full review to come). This will now be my main read. I am so far 37 pages and have finished the first chapter which is from Noah's perspective when they were 13 years old. Not sure about this book at the moment as I am not really enjoying the writing  style but I am going to continue with it and see if I change I mind as everyone I know really loves this book so I want to give it a chance.

This concludes my first blog post thanks for reading and hope you enjoy my blog. More blogs to come in the future.
