I can't believe another month has already passed, it's crazy. I really like doing these recap blogposts and I remember thinking 'Ahw I have to wait a whole month to write another month of these', but it literally feels like only a week has passed.
This month went A LOT different than what I was first expecting. I was planning on reading four books: Outlander, A Court Of Mist And Fury, Me Before You and The Burning Sky. What I didn't know, was that my life WOULD BE COMPLETELY RUINED BY A COURT OF MIST AND FURY AND THAT I COULD NOT DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN READ THIS AND CRY AND THINK ABOUT IT.
Yes, the moment I got A Court Of Mist And Fury in the mail, I stopped reading Outlander around page 480 or something and started reading, probably not a good idea because now I am really not in the mood to finish Outlander. I finished ACOMAF the first time FAR too quick, in only 3 days. I just lay on my bed starring at the ceiling because what was I going to do with my life now. I would never read another book that was as good as this one. The solution: JUST READ IT AGAIN YAY.
And so I read the amazing epicness that is ACOMAF for a second time in a row. Never have I done this with a book before. I have reread books, like all the Throne Of Glass books, but never have I ever closed the book because I finished it, turned it around and just started reading again. It was even better the second time. FULL REVIEW HERE
I tried to continue Outlander, because I only have a little over 100 pages left, but I just can't do it at the moment. It's quite a slow book and I just need something quick and fun, so I chose to read Me Before You, which I am currently reading. I'm on page 250 and I'm really liking this. I'm not sure if it will get me over my ACOMAF reading slump, because I really want to reread it again.
What will I read in June? Honestly I have no idea. I'll probably end up reading A Court Of Mist And Fury for a third time bc I just can't leave this world yet. I need more of Feyre and Rhys. I never experienced anything like this while reading a book before. I just can't think about anything else.
I really want to read The Burning Sky by Sherry Thomas, which I was already planning on reading this month. I know I'll love this book so I hope I'll get to it this month. If I like this, I'll probably end up buying the other two books in the trilogy as well and read those.
I also want read The Bane Chronicles by Cassandra Clare. I love Magnus and if Me Before You and The Burning Sky won't get me over my ACOMAF slump, this one surely will.
I promised myself (and my friend and my mom) not to buy any more books till my birthday on the 21st of June....but then I found myself in a bookstore and I may have gotten one new book............
Yeah, I bought The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss. I already own the first book in this series called The Name Of The Wind and I am planning to read that one this summer when I have the time for a nice long fantasy read (because these books are enormous) and I just wanted the second book too...I have book buying problems okay. I don't want to call myself a book hoarder, but I have my issues.
I finally finished my Jamie Fraser drawing, which took me waaaay too long to finish. I just want to get all the details and such correct, so my drawing take so long to finish. But this is the end result, what do you think? :)
Book Depository is now sending you colouring bookmarks with every order, which is awesome. I love adult colouring books, so I took the first chance I had to colour mine. I'm actually considering buying the colouring book this was based off, because this art is amazing.
These are some of my most reblogged and liked posts of this month.
AHHHH YOU ARE AN AMAZING ARTIST OMG!! And I love your coloured dragon bookmark. ;D I have one of those but I didn't colour it because I didn't want to accidentally ruin it. haha.a I know. I'm terrible.
ReplyDeleteOmg I really want to read Name of the Wind!
And I'm glad you loved ACOMAF. ;D I felt that way when I finished the Raven King...I just wanted to re-read it 93839 times and not read anything else. xD HANGOVER TIME!!
