Well, January is officially over. It’s crazy that we’re already a month into 2018! But with another month done, comes my January 2018 reading wrap-up! While I post my book reviews to my blog, I figured a monthly wrap-up is a great way to catch up on my recent reads! Here is my January 2018 reading wrap-up!
S.T.A.G.S by M.A. Bennett Blog Tour
When PenguinTeen Canada reached out to me to join in this tour, I jumped at the change. S.T.A.G.S seemed so different from anything I’ve ever read. S.T.A.G.S follows Greer, a teenage girl who is new at a prestigious and elite boarding school. The school prefrects, also known as the Medievals, invite Greer for a weekend away.
Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard
The hype surrounding Red Queen really led me to reading the book. Because it was so similar to the Divergent series and The Hunger Games series, I was hoping for more in the sequel. Unfortunately, I’m still wanting more from this series in general.
Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas
After hearing about Sarah J Maas for a while, I figured it was time to finally read one of her books! I’m so glad I did, because her books are totally addicting! Throne of Glass follows Celaena Sardothien who is removed from the salt mines and taken to the castle. She discovers that the Crown Prince has chosen her as his champion in a new competition.
I See London, I See France by Sarah Mlynowski
We all know by now that I love contemporary books. When combined with travel, it’s usually a book that I’ll love. Heading into this book, I had really high hopes. But it ultimately fell a little flat. I See London, I See France follows Sydney as she travels in Europe with her best friend.
The Afterlife of Holly Chase by Cynthia Hand
I absolutely love Christmas – the movies, the decorations, the music. The overall atmosphere is the best. Because of this, I was looking for a great holiday read. And let me tell you, this young adult book, is perfect! One of my favourite Christmas movies is Scrooged with Bill Murray. It’s a modern retelling of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens and it’s just always been a favourite.
