My TBR List for September 2020

 


Recently, I have been going through some of the books which I have bought either not so long ago, or have been on my pile for a very long time. So, I have decided that today I will be going through some of books which have made their way onto my pile in the last couple of months.

THE MIDNIGHT LIBRARY BY MATT HAIG


Really excited about this one. Heard that there was rave reviews and have only received this in the post two days ago! I've read books by Haig before and they always are deep and interesting.

HOW TO SAVE A LIFE BY LIZ FENTON AND LISA STEINKE


This story is simply one that I stumbled upon on Goodreads. I don't tend to see anything of interest when looking around Goodreads, but this one seemed different as it has been described as it very own Groundhog Day.

PLEASE DON'T HUG ME BY KAY KERR


This book stood out to me because of Autism Spectrum Disorder (represent!) and DOUGHNUTS! The idea that the story seems to be thought-provoking is just the cherry on the cake!

PEACE AND TURMOIL BY ELLIOT BROOKS


I've had this bad boy on my wish list for a while now and have only recently taken the plunge to buy it. I'm not quite sure what will be in store, but I am definitely intrigued to see how this will play out.

THE LOST CITY BY AMANDA HOCKING


There is no secret that I have been invested in this particular universe by this author for such a long time. Just interested to see how this last trilogy will play out.

Sunburn by Darren Dash

This is the cover of the recently published book "Sunburn" by Darren Dash (yes, it actually does feature a character getting burnt), which was published earlier than expected on the 1st May. This truly seems like a momentous event. This author has probably influenced my reading patterns the most, since I first picked up a book just for leisure. He is truly an inspirational guy. The cover itself is very sinister. The mix of reds and oranges as well as the sun connotes that the sun plays an antagonising role in the story. Maybe even a factor to all of the characters downfall. The simplicity makes it very intriguing as well as making it feel very uncomforting. Simple but well executed. This demonic masterpiece does not fail to disappoint even the most biggest of horror fans. Set in a perfect setting, the characters are strong, that even the smallest mistake they make can be very vexing. It focuses on three characters: Dominic; Curran and Martini. Who despite

Frostfire by Amanda Hocking

It is back to Amanda Hocking this week, with her new book that I have recently been talking about, when reviewing her other series, the Trylle Trilogy. Although, this book is now in a new series, but set in the same universe. It is called the Kanin Chronicles... I must admit, when actually owning the book, the cover is very enchanting and beautiful. How for instance, the main character and protagonist, Bryn Aven, is at the centre of attention, with her coat covered in red. Whereas in the background, it is very muted colours, with the whites and blacks, but also having a sort of wonderland type of presence. Red to me also makes me feel quite uncomfortable and moreover is a colour for danger. So, onto the criticisms then! First of all, I don't know why but I felt a little bit out of place with this new world. Maybe it is because I read the other series in the same universe, I may have gotten used to them far too much. So when there are old characters appearing and being ment

The Fabulous Kiera Cass's Books!

Hey! I'm Kiki and my main objective for this blog is to go through with you, the reader, the books I am reading- as well as giving those tough old criticisms. Of course, if you have already scrutinised this blog quite a lot already, you would already know that this is true. So far I have read 20 books during this year. Yeah, I know not as much as the book tubers which on average they read 100 each year. But I'm not perfect- I'm only human! So who will be my first victim I see? I'm only joking! The first author who will be under my scrutiny will be the delightful and funny Kiera Cass with her entries including The Selection, The Elite and The One. Here we go... Genre : Dystopian Romance The Selection!- 3 stars The Criticisms! Throughout the whole of this book there was little going on. Probably because of the fact that there is two more books afterwards, and Kiera is trying to prolong the time when the action actually does happen, which is probably so then
