Welcome to my July Wrap Up. I had an okay reading month, finishing 5 books (5 books off my TBR).
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 July Wrap Up:
When You Are Mine by Michael Robotham: I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I am not usually one for crime thrillers but this book had such fantastic characters and a great story that hooked my from the first page. I really liked Michael Robotham’s writing; it was fast paced and full of emotion, which worked well for this story. I am glad that I decided to pic this book up and I am looking forward to reading more of Michael Robotham’s work in the future.
The Fountains Of Silence by Ruta Sepetys: This book was really interesting. I have never read a book set after the Spanish Civil War and I went into this book with very little knowledge of this time period. Ruta Sepetys is the master of both Historical Fiction and creating amazing characters. The characters she created for this book radiated emotion which added an extra layer to this heartbreaking story.
The Sweetness of Water by Nathan Harris: This book was fantastic. The story was thought-provoking, the characters were flawed and human, and the writing was both lyrical and emotional. I cant remember the last time a book made me feel the way this one did. This is easily one of the best novels I have read this year. I am so excited to see what Nathan Harris comes up with next.
Unwell Women by Elinor Cleghorn: This book was fantastic. I was afraid that this book was going to be difficult to read, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. It was well written, well researched, easy to read, and thoroughly eye-opening. I am so glad that I picked this book up. I honestly don’t have a bad word to say about this wonderful book. This book is a must read for everyone.
Season Of Storms by Andrzej Sapkowski: This book has been on my TBR for so long and now that I have finally read it I’m angry that I didn’t pick it up sooner. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The story was great, the writing was amazing, and I loved getting to journey with Geralt again. I how have to get myself the rest of the series and read the remaining books as soon as I get them.
That’s it for my July 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 August Wrap Up…
Happy Reading…
