The end of summer is always bittersweet, even now that I live in the adult world with a full-time job and a house. It feels like I’m back at university and returning to school. 

I’ve gotten a lot of reading done this year but not so many reviews. I’m slowly trying to recitfy that. I’ll be working on the ARCs I have for releases in November and trying not to devour the books I’m most excited about for September.

What I Read

• The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin ★★
• The Southern Book Clubs Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix ★ DNF
• Salt by Hannah Moskowitz ★ DNF
• Ash Princess (Ash Princess Trilogy, #1) by Laura Sebastian ★★★
• The Night Country (The Hazel Wood, #2) by Melissa Albert ★★
• A Burning by Megha Majumdar ★★★★
• A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2) ★★★★
• Ink & Sigil (Ink & Sigil, #1) by Kevin Hearne
• The World That We Know by Alice Hoffman ★★★
• Lady Smoke (Ash Princess Trilogy, #2) by Laura Sebastian ★★★

This month did not start off great – two books that have been on my TBR list were do not finishes. I randomly decided to reread A Court of Mist and Fury – I still don’t know why but again a favorite of mine. I have to say the The World That We Knew by Alice Hoffman was a disappointing read for me and I really love

Currently Reading

• Helm of Darkness (War on the Gods, #1) by A.P. Mobley
• Ember Queen (Ash Princess Trilogy, #3) by Laura Sebastian

 

September Releases

• Fable (Fable, #1) by Adrienne Young
• The Left-handed Booksellers of London by Garth Nix

There are a lot of books being released this month that I can’t wait for. I think I’ve pre-ordered ever one except Skyhunter!
