    APRIL RECAP // new theme, movies + becoming a rep

    I know I said it last time, but WHERE HAS THE YEAR GONE? I’ve got a busy two months coming up because of exams so like dreading it. SEND HELP TO A POOR GIRL PLEASE?! I’ll talk about them in a book haul but like I GOT SO MANY AWESOME AND BEAUTIFUL BOOKS omg. Like I need to read them NOW. It’s been a pretty decent reading month in terms of books I enjoyed. I didn’t read much (I’ll tell you why later) but what I did read were books that I loved.   – Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken {★★★★★}: If ya’ll didn’t know, I was on a dystopian and super power high last month and read The Darkest Minds which I LOVED. It was an amazing time so READ IT IF YOU HAVEN’T! Anyways I love these books even though they can drag a little bit. I read it for Liam okay?!

    MARCH RECAP // studying, holidays & binge reading

Like REALLY good and I’m proud of myself. We’re also on Easter break and I’ve been reading a heck load and bombarding ya’ll with reviews. Okay, I read 5 books and 3 novellas (!!). And Goodreads tells me I’m 5 books ahead of schedule. Don’t ask me how I read more in one month when I also had to study how I read more than Jan & Feb combined. None of the books I read have a rating lower than 4 stars so I consider this a very successful month.      – Opal by Maggie Stiefvater {★★★★★}:  SO. GOOD. I am starved of this world and I need more. A novella isn’t enough!! (review here) – City of Bones by Cassandra Clare {★★★★★}: Of course it was amazing and I will forever gush and be nostalgic about this series. I read it with Lu which was also really fun (review here) – Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi {★★★★☆}: As you can see I binged these…
