Hello Hello! How are you all?
Monday was a typical Monday and I ended up giving up early and going to write more of my novel for NaNoWriMo and managed to jump over the 30k line, whoop whoop! Iβm writing this Tuesday morning, so I could have made more progress by the time this post goes up tomorrow morning!
Iβm struggling with my health a little bit at the moment, I have so many things to do for university and I just want to lay in my reading nook with a big fluffy blanket and books, but hopefully, the Christmas holidays are not far away!

The Dire King (#4 Jackaby) by William Ritter

Candyce and I have been reading this series for the past few months and Iβve fallen in love with it, itβs such a great series! We are going to be finishing the last chapters in this book today (Tuesday) and I really donβt want it to end, I want to have another 100 adventures with Abigail and Jackaby, I donβt know how this is going to wrap up in 4 chapters, ARGH!

Shadows of Winterspell by Amy Wilson

Iβve been reading this book for the Middle Grade Marvels book club and we are all really enjoying it. Itβs very whimsical and magical, it has a lot going for it. I like that we know things almost straight away and donβt have to be guessing all the time because itβs a short book and Iβm already over halfway through, hoping to read the 3rd section in the next few days!

To Sleep in a Sea of Stars by Christopher Paolini

I managed to get in a big chunk of this book this weekend and although Iβm not fully loving it, I have to say itβs so interesting and when I am reading it, I canβt seem to put it down. Itβs very different from anything Iβve previously read, itβs a proper space and aliens kind of science fiction and itβs fun, I feel like itβs getting really interesting as more things are happening.

Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott, Mikki Daughtry and Tobias Iaconis

I started this on Monday and Iβve already nearly finished it, Iβve only got about 70 pages to go and Iβm pretty sure itβll be done tonight. This isnβt the best-written book that Iβve read and itβs not really giving me feels (I think The Fault in Our Stars ripped my heart out and I still havenβt gotten it back), but I know the ending is going to be hard. Iβve been reading this for my thesis and it currently has more stick notes than the stick notes pack aha!

Iβve not actually finished any books since last week, but as Iβm writing this, Iβm sure Iβm going to be finishing The Dire King by William Ritter for the buddy read Iβm doing with Candyce, weβve been loving it and donβt want it to end. And Iβm pretty sure Iβll also finish Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott too. Iβve just flown through this one.

The Girl in Red by Christina Henry

This is another book Iβve got on my list for my thesis, Iβve wanted to read it since the start of the year and Iβm really hoping that I can get to it as soon as I finish another book. I know this one is horror so Iβm a bit scared, but maybe if I stick to reading it in the day Iβll be okay? In any case, Iβm really looking forward to finally jumping in.

The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton

Candyce and I have decided that we are going to start this book once we finish The Dire King. I actually purchased it right when it came out and even started it quite a while ago, but I wasnβt in the mood to read a mystery so ended up putting it down. I know that itβs going to be easier to get into it if Iβm buddy reading it, and Iβve heard so much about it, so I canβt wait to give this one another shot.

Thatβs all for now, I hope you enjoyed this post, see you soon, stay safe,

Oh i hope you enjoy The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, it is one of my top books this year!
Thank you, so far I’m about 100 pages in and I’m intrigued!!
Happy reading! I love your mix of books – I quite fancy To sleep in a sea of stars but I have heard it is quite a slow starter/burner.
Thank you Jules! It is quite slow, I’m about 230 pages in and it’s only now actually getting going but a lot of things happen before so it’s still enjoyable and it doesn’t really drag in my opinion!
I just added To Sleep in a Sea of Stars to my TBR sounds interesting, can’t wait to hear your full thoughts on it.

YAS!! So glad aha, I hope you enjoy it! π
Ooo, I’m interested to see how you feel about the Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle. I’ve been so intrigued by the synopsis but still haven’t picked it up π Great post, Ellie!
I’m about 100 pages in so far and it’s so intriguing!! Thank you Kerri! π
I read Five Feet Apart earlier (last year? this year? what is time?) and I agree that The Fault in Our Stars was way more of a tearjerker.
Hehehe, I have no idea what day it is lol! Yeah, it was good but I didn’t cry π
Lots of books here, Ellie! The Stuart Turton one is good – I can recommend that one π
Yes aha, crazy crazy!!! Oh brilliant, thank you! π
Evelyn Hardcastle was definitely an interesting and memorable read for me. I’m curious to hear your thoughts on it!
I’m currently about 100 pages in and already really intrigued!
A lot good books! Hope you enjoy!
Thank you!
