2017: A Year in (Book) Review

Image
I'm going to be honest...I did such a shit job at fulfilling my 2017 TBR. I feel as if all I did in 2017 was complain about how much school work I had to do and then proceed to forget to read ANY books. But don't worry everyone, there's always 2018! 1. To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han I'm going to blame this on my friend Sarah. She bought this series for me for my birthday and has managed to give it to me like a week ago (my birthday was in June). SO, I haven't been able to start reading the series until yesterday. However I just finished the first book and I love it already. Jenny Han always does really good YA series' that explores not only love but also the themes of family and friendship. SO GOOD. 2. The Darkest Mind Series by Alexandra Bracken  I read Never Fade in January and thought it was pretty awesome. However, I then proceeded to forget this series ever existed. I have the last book on my phone, I just haven't pushed myself...

2016; A Year in (Book) Review & 2017 ULTIMATE TBR

So, I have a  list of books  that I wanted to read in 2016. And I decided to do a follow up blog post to see what I've done this year. I can't believe that it's 2017. I still think it's 2014 and I'm still in high school. And I have my 2017 TBR for you which hopefully I manage to actually get all read this year! I haven't done a good job of reading what was on my TBR in 2016, I'll be honest. I just got sidetracked with reading other things (see The Mortal Instruments). But I did read some of the books on my list. 1. The Maze Runner Series by James Dashner I tried to read this series. And from memory I got through 30 pages before I just couldn't read anymore. The slang and language the character's use is so confusing. I don't understand what they are trying to say and I feel as if I need a glossary of terms to understand their slang. Maybe I will try to read this book again but right now I prefer the movies. 2. To All The Boys I've Lov...
