I Was Doing So Well… | December Haul

Posted by angelreads Book Hauls 1 Comment

I can’t believe it’s already the end of the year. I seriously don’t know where it’s gone. It’s been up and down that is for sure. In and out of lockdown. Becoming a manager of my bookstore. Some great things happened, some not so much. But here is the last haul for the year. This month I bought and received quite a few books. Some of these books were preorders from November, some were just from work. Nevertheless, it happened. 

And this one is a bad one. I just bought a lot of books this month and you know what I love it. I’ve been up and down this whole year buying wise, and I let loose this month. Anyway, let’s go. As always these are in a particular order.

Most Anticipated Books Releasing In the First Half of 2022

Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 10 Comments

This week I’m sharing some of my most anticipated books releasing in the first half of 2022. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I love and hate making this list. It’s a great way for me to figure out what is coming out, but I also miss so many books that I also want to read that are coming out at the start of the year. I’m not at the best at always keeping up to date when books are coming out, so I just forget so many books.  But anyway here are some of the ones that I want to read early 2022. 

There is a mix of young adult and romance, but I’m not going to lie, I think it’s going to be another romance reading year. And I’m so ready for it. Anyway, let’s get right into it. Here are some of my most anticipated reads for the first half of 2022. 

Electric Idol (Dark Olympus #2) by Katee Robert | Beautiful Nightmare (Dark Dream Duet #2) by Giana Darling | Always Jane by Jenn Bennett | So This Is Ever After by F.T. Lukens.

Untitled (The Fallen Men #7) by Giana Darling | The Savage (Kingmakers) by Sophie Lark | Secrets We Hunt (One Night #2) by Dana Isaly | I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston.

Under One Roof by Ali Hazelwood | A Duke for Diana (Designing Debutantes #1) by Sabrina Jeffries

And there we go. Those are just some of the books that I am looking forward to reading in the first half of 2022. What books made it to your list? Do we share any books that are the same? Let’s have a chat! 

Happy New Year | Welcome to 2022

Happy New Year | Welcome to 2022

Posted by angelreads Uncategorized No Comments

happy new year 2022

2021 was a year that was very up and down. We never knew what was going to be thrown at us, we never do. But let’s hope that 2022 is just a little better. 

I wanted to quickly jump on and wish everyone here a happy new year. I wish that you all have a lovely day and hope that 2022 will be a fantastic year for you all. The last two years have been rough on all of us and a global pandemic that just doesn’t want to stop has made everything that more difficult. I hope that you are all finding something bright in your lives to get you through. 

There are so many books already on my 2022 tbr that I cannot wait to read and share my thoughts with you all. With so many books coming out I don’t even know where to start. I want to make 2022 another year and just read what I want and not care about what others think. I hope that you all can do the same. 

What were some of your favourite books that you read in 2021? I’m still debating and trying to figure out mine right now. What books are you looking forward to reading in 2022? What’s at the top of your list? There are so many amazing romances and young adult books that have already made it onto my tbr that I cannot wait to read. 

I also want to expand my reading in 2022 and start reading more manga, comics and graphic novels. I think that is my plan for the year – that’s for sure. What are some of your favourites? What should I read? 

Well, that is all from me. I hope that 2021 wasn’t a horrible year for you and if it was I hope that 2022 brings your some more joy. I hope that you all have a fantastic year this year. And read as many books as you want.

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
… 

How Race Week Reads Will Work 

On Monday of race week I’ll announce the book I’ll be reading for the week, then throughout the week I’ll be posting stories and my thoughts. And then on Sunday, race day my review and final thoughts will go up.

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
