Short Hiatus

Short Hiatus

September 6, 2014 Posted by angelreads Announcements 8 Comments

Hey Everyone. So as the title says I am going on a Short Hiatus. And by short I mean to the end of November. I would not do this if I didn’t have to, but my final end of year exams are coming up very soon and I have so much studying to do.  These exams are worth more than half of my mark, so I need to do quite well in them. Hence I am going to be studying a lot.

I just won’t be able to focus on Angel Reads to the standard I want, and do well in my exams aswell. There will be some guest posts here and there, and I might get a few up, but I cannot say how many and when.

I am sorry for doing this to you guys and I hope that you stick by me. But once the end of November is over I am all yours!!! I will have finished high school, and I have at least 3 months off before I go to University. So we are going to have some fun. I have so many new and exciting things coming next year that I hope that you all will love.

Although my hiatus will be a few months I will make it up to you. I promise.

Thank you all for understanding.

Angel

    UNI! Sounds so scary, I can’t imagine being in your shoes. I’m in year 10 and the teachers are all about “know what you want to be when your older!” Good luck on your exams, I’m sure you’ll do great. Don’t worry, all your followers will be here when you get back 😉

    Woah, good luck with the HSC. I did it 3 years ago, and I still remember how much I hated it.
    And it totally makes sense that you’re taking time off to focus on exams. I barely had time to think during my HSC exams (even though by that point I had pretty much given up on caring and was fully prepared to take a back-way into uni, which I did).

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?

January was a really solid reading month. I read s January was a really solid reading month. I read some books that had been on my tbr for some time, reread a few things that peaked my interest. I also started a few new series. And just had a good time!

I just had a really good start to the year. While February is a little slow so far I’m looking forward to what I can pick up.
