Hello fellow bookworms… It’s been ages since I’ve done a tag — However the Mid-year freakout is a staple. It lets us know how our reading year is going so I wasn’t passing it up..
Let’s get tagging
Best book you’ve read so far in
I have quite a few that have been incredible.. Books I came upon quite by accident, requested for reviews and my mangas.. I can’t just pick one that’s so rude…
- A Court of Crows by Eliza Eveland
- A Dream of Flame and Shadows by Eliza Eveland
- Forgotten Vows by Lily Mayne
- Windy City Ruins By Brett Salter
- Sasaki to Miyano by Shou Harusono
Best sequel you’ve read so far in
Most of the books I have been reading aren’t ongoing series but mostly companion ones.. so the lucky winners are:
- Forgotten Vows by Lily Mayne
- Gleam by Raven Kennedy
New release you haven’t read yet, but want to
I’m excited to pick this one up soon…
- Glow by Raven Kennedy
Most anticipated release for the second half of the year
I’m trying not to pay too much attention to all the books that are coming out and just going with the flow.. Once I see they are available it’s an awesome surprise and it gets me giddy like a kid and with no stress at all, nor high expectations..
However I am very excited for a new release by Laura Thalassa that might be coming out in November – no cover yet.
Biggest disappointment
- The Next Competitor by Keira Andrews
This book was awful for me.. I hated the characters, there was no growth to them or their relationship and I was really hoping that having a figure skating setting would be so cool but it wasn’t
Biggest surprise
- Promised in Fire by Jasmine Walt
I haven0t been reading a lot of YA fantasy lately.. I was a bit burnout on the same tropes over and over ..but this book reminded me of why I used to love these kind of books
Favourite new author (debut or new to you)
- Eliza Eveland
I’m obsessed, I’m working my way on her little backlist.. she’s a newish author when it comes to romance..
Newest fictional crush and Newest favourite character
More like I want a friend like him.. so it’s a friendship crush
- Sebastian Vogel from Dare you to Try by Ella Frank
Book that made you cry
Not a single one yet, I’m not an easy bookish crier..
Book that made you happy
Every single book I read makes me happy even the ones that I want to throw agaisnt a wall.. It’s a great relaxation tecnique..
The most beautiful book you’ve bought so far this year
- Glow by Raven Kennedy
What books do you need to read by the end of the year?
None whatsoever.. i just read what I want… zero pressure
Favourite book to movie adaptation you’ve seen this year?
More like an Manga to Anime adaptation… My dress up Darling and Sasaki to miyano. I loved these Anime and their Mangas..
Tag you’re it… How ‘s you reading year going so far?
