Welcome to my August Wrap Up. I have had a good reading month, finishing 7 books (3 books off my TBR). I also received 1 ARC this month, and I continued my new goal of reading 1 Shakespeare play.
I have reviews up or coming up for these books so as usual this is just going to be a brief run down on each book I read.
Without further ado, let’s get into my August Wrap Up:
Tiny White Lies by Fiona Palmer: This book was amazing. It had everything I hoped it would. A wonderful and emotional story, a beautiful setting, relatable characters and fantastic writing. I loved every page of this book and I will be re reading it many times in the future.
A Tale Of Magic by Chris Colfer: This book was magical! The story was wonderful, the characters were different and lovable, and the writing was perfect. I loved the underlying message that this book had and I cannot wait to read the next book it what I know will be a wonderful new series.
The Paper & Hearts Society Read With Pride by Lucy Powrie: This book was wonderful. I loved its predecessor, so I was very excited to dive into this book. I am happy to say it was everything I hoped it would be. I loved catching up with the original crew and I loved meeting new characters. The story was amazing and as expected the writing was fantastic. A must read book.
Fatal Faults by Eric Braun: This book was great. I knew the basics of this story before going into this book so I was excited to learn more. I really love the way this story was told; by the people who lived it, and I really enjoyed getting to hear the opinions or the various people involved. I am excited to learn more about this now.
Smooth Sea and a Fighting Chance by Steven Otfinoski: This was a great read. I think everyone is familiar with the story of Titanic; but I loved getting to read about it through the voices of the people who were there. I learnt a lot from reading this book and now I want to learn more.
Th Ethics Toolkit by Julian Baggini: This was require reading for my Ethics University class this Trimester and I actually enjoyed reading it. I likes the way it was broken into segments so that you could read different parts without having to read entire chapters. I doubt that I would have picked this book up if I didn’t have to for University but I am glad that I have read it.
10 Things I Hate About Pinky by Sandhya Menon: I really enjoyed this book. I probably should have read There’s Something About Sweetie first as there is spoilers in this book; but that didn’t affect this book and I doubt it will really bother me when I read There’s Something About Sweetie. After reading this book I am now even more excited to continue working my way through Sandhya Menon’s novels.
Shakespeare: I read 1 Shakespeare plays in August. I read the following Shakespeare Play This Month:
Coriolanus
That’s it for my August Wrap Up. I hope you all had a great reading month. Let me know what you guys read this month in the comments section.
Until my September Wrap Up…
Happy Reading…
