Book Log!

January

@HereComesDaSun22 thx for the idea!!!

So these are the books I've read so far this month... it seems like a lot but I only read this much in the beginning of the year 'cause like... motivation hits harder right after New Years. I still can't believe January is already over though. That went by fast.

Pointe by Brandy Colbert

Okay this took me a while to get through. Mainly because I kept on procrastinating in between, but it really was a great read. It has some mature content, and it approached some sensitive topics like food disorders and grooming, but I really did love the character development and how realistic it was.

7.5/10

Lightlark by Alex Aster (#1 in Lightlark Series)

Originally, I thought I wouldn't really like this at all. Mainly because one of my friends who read it said that the writing wasn't very good even though the idea was. But I absolutely fell in love with the world and the characters. Once again, a tad bit mature, but I loved it. The beginning wasn't very hooking, but it's impossible to put it down after a while.

9.5/10

NightBane by Alex Aster (#2 in Lightlark Series)

Just like the first book, I loved it and I cannot wait for the next book to come out because there were so many enticing plot twists and so many questions I want answered. Again, it was not very interesting at first, but you really get immersed after a while. The format was a little bit hard to understand, but once you get the hang of the difference between flashbacks and the present, it's amazhang.

9/10

The False Prince by Jennifer A. Nielson (#1 in Ascendance Series)

LOVED IT. Okay so I really picked it up because my friend gave me the Cruel Prince for my birthday but it was the second in the series, and I didn't check for some reason so I thought this was the first book. Don't regret it though. Some of the things were overused, but for a reason and I really loved how the author played some of the plot twists through.

9.75/10

Why am I not rating any of these a perfect 10/10-

The Runaway King by Jennifer A. Nielson (#2 in Ascendance Series)

Just like the first one, loved it. Some parts made me cringe with second hand embarrassment but that's like every book, really.

9.5/10

The Shadow Throne by Jennifer A. Nielson (#3 in Ascendance Series)

Some parts really made me want to scream. I loved it, but to be honest, all the books in the series kind of blurred together for me so I had to search up a summary to remember the boundaries between the plots of the books.

8/10

Let the Sky Fall by Shannon Messenger (#1 in Skyfall Series)

Okay, this was a reread, but I just love the series. It's amazhang and Shannon Messenger always delivers. it's definitely a lot more mature than the KOTLC series, but I really love it and it's always a classic.
