Hi friends! It’s time for another Friday Favorites hosted by Kibby @ Something of the Book! This weekly meme is where you get to share a list of all your favorites based on the list of prompts on Kibby’s page. Sounds fun, right? This week’s prompt is: favorite books that define you. Since this week has been so super busy with family time after office hours I’m going to keep this one really short. Here are the books that come to mind when I think of reads that have impacted my life in some way. Some have made appreciate the privileged life I lead more. Some have made me consider how I see the world and what role I can play in making it ‘better’ place to live. Some have made me question my own thoughts and opinions. Some have got me through some really hard times. Some have fuelled my love for books and magic. All I have learned so much from in one way or another.
What are some of your favorite books that define you? Would any of these make your list? Leave me a comment below and let’s chat!
Hi friends! It’s time for another Friday Favorites hosted by Kibby @ Something of the Book! This weekly meme is where you get to share a list of all your favorites based on the list of prompts on Kibby’s page. Sounds fun, right? This week’s prompt is: favorite sequels. So… I didn’t think I’d struggle this one but… It made me realize that while I thought I’ve read quite a lot of series in full, I actually haven’t? There are a few series that I’ve started and even though I thoroughly enjoyed the first book, I still haven’t read the sequel. There’s no particular reason for that other than there are just so many books and too little time! I’m sure many of you can relate. Here are just some of my favorite sequels!
This book was just… Insanity! That ending? I can’t even! And the fact that we’ve had to wait for what feels like FOREVER for the next book to come out is killing me. I’m so ready for November 2019! *Remember, remember the 5th of November* and all that jazz.
I didn’t think that anything could top my love for Caraval but then Legendary came out and I was INVESTED. I thought Tella was a great heroine and I can’t even with Dante (yes, I am on his team). Ugh, that ending! When it ended and I realized that there was actually three books I almost cried because that was painful. Talk about a cliffhanger! So, why haven’t I read Finale yet? 🙈
I don’t even think I have to explain here. The Illuminae Files is one of my all time favorite series (and actually Sammie of The Writerly Way has made a list of 10 reasons to read the book, so I suggest you head on over there to learn why you should read it, then GO & READ IT!) and after the first book, I didn’t think I could love this series any more, but I was dead wrong. Just when you think this series couldn’t get any crazier and creepier, it really does! Ugh, my feels…
This is one of my all time favorite series and I loved the sequel to ADSOM just as much. The incredible world building expands, there’s a lot more great character development and oh, the adventures! I also loved all the new characters that were introduced in this one, namely Allucard!
Am I trash for this series? Yes, yes I am! My love for Throne of Glass only continued to grow with every sequel that I read in this series. Although the series is so freaking long I actually liked it a lot more than ACOTAR! There are so many incredible characters and storylines and I was here for it. I admit I haven’t read the last book yet because I don’t want this series to be over!
Bonus: Sequels I’m looking forward to reading
There are so many sequels I’m really looking forward, some already released and some that I’m waiting desperately for, some that are even not fantasy but contemporary romance too. I would name them all, but we might be here forever, so these are just some of the ones that I’m very excited to get my read on with 🙂
