May Wrap-up

May was again not my best reading month. I read 2 books and I'm more than 800 pages into A Storm of Swords by George R. R. Martin. I hear more and more of GOT because season 7 is coming somewhere next month and I can't wait. To fill the void I started the 3th book.

April Wrap-up

I know I’m very late with this wrap-up. I just didn’t feel like writing for my blog this month. I can’t really tell you why. I hoop I get better at it. Summer is coming and we had our first warm weather of 2017. This makes me want to read more. I don’t know why but I associate warm weather with reading, probably because I love reading in my backyard when the sun shines. That’s a perfect summer day to me. April wasn’t my best reading month. I read 2 books. Hopefully next month will be better!

March Wrap-Up

April has come. Yes, it’s April already, and I’m back!

March was a busy month for me, I was graduating from college. But it was not for nothing because I have bachelor degree now. Well I don’t have the piece of paper just yet but I have passed all the test etc. I only have to pick it up :P


I also started in March to get out of my reading slump so I didn’t want to push myself to hard. Considering, I did fairly well. I read 4 books and finished my first series of this year. All in all, not bad.

February Wrap-up

I didn't have a good reading month. I was a lot busier with school and I got sick. Nothing bad, just the flu. I kind of got in a reading slump as well. I haven’t poste anything this month either because of all this. Sorry for that. This month I won’t post much either. I’m currently finishing my bachelor degree, so I’ll be focusing on that this month. I hoop to post more in April.  

I have a feeling my reading will be better next month will. I’m already reading my second book of the month March, but my tests are coming up so I don’t know if I’m able to keep it up. Let’s hoop :P

Here are the books that I read in the month of February and how I rated them.

January Wrap-up

The first month of this year is already over. I had a normal reading month, nothing special. I'm kind of getting in a reading slump so I hoop to read more next month, but I'm not so sure. I feel like I'm concentrating too much on the goals I set for myself this year. I think I should just read what I want to read and not concentrate on books that accomplish these goals. 

Here are the books that I read in the month of December and how I rated them. I added links for books I have a review on.

December Wrap-up

Last month I started The Lunar Chronicles and I finished it on the 1st of December. In the first week I also finished The Corrigan Falls Raiders trilogy. Apart from that I didn't have a great reading month. I was sick in the second and third week. After that I had an exam so I was a bit stressed and didn't have the time to read much.I'm also a bit behind on my reviews so there are coming a few this month. 

Here are the books that I read in the month of December and how I rated them. I added links for books I have a review on.

November Wrap-up

I read a lot this month. Thanks to all my procrastinating, because I was supposed to work on school but I didn’t have the concentration to work on it. :)

This month I started The Lunar Chronicles and I really got obsessed. I already finished the series but I finished winter on the first of December so you will see that in my December wrap-up. Now I’m kind of in a reading slump, The Lunar Chronicles was so good how can I top that? If you have any recommendations please, apparently I need it.

Here are the books that I read in the month of November and how I rated them. I added links for books I have a review on.

August Wrap-Up

I didn’t have much reading time this month. I went on vacation 2 times this month. Ones to Czech Republic for 10 days with friends, and ones with a nonprofit where I volunteer for a week. Because of this I didn’t have much time to read. I only read 1 book and in the end of this month I picked up 3 graphic novels. I flew thought them in a few hours. So these are the things I read in the month of August and what I rated them.

July Wrap-up

Normally I read about a book a week, so 4 book per month. But this month I participated in the Booktube-A-Thon, and because of this I challenged myself to read more,
Since I can't read 7 books in one week I decided to try to complete all the challenges in one month instead of one week. I did this last year and that worked well for me. This year I completed all the challenges again.

Below you find the books I read, their rating and which challenges they completed.
