Books That Are Currently On My Wish List

Books That Are Currently On My Wish List

Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 4 Comments

This week I’m sharing the books currently on my wish list. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

As Christmas is near today I thought I would share the books that I would love physical copies of. Some of these I’ve read and I just want to have them in my hands. And some I haven’t read yet, but can’t wait to read.

While I work in a bookstore, there are some books that I can’t get in myself or just haven’t yet. I don’t always buy physical books right away, especially if the book is on Kindle Unlimited. And there was a time where I barely bought any romance books in physical form.

But now I’m starting to add to my collection and I love it. So today I’m sharing some of those books that are on my wish list. As always these are in no order. 

Sweet Omegaverse series by Kathryn Moon and Lana Kole | Fine Print, Volume 1 by Stjepan Šejić |Punderworld, Volume 1 (Punderworld #1) by  Linda Šejić | Dead Man Walking (The Fallen Men #6) by Giana Darling.

Wicked Villains series by Katee Robert | Promises and Pomegranates (Monsters & Muses #1) by Sav R. Miller | Only When It’s Us (Bergman Brothers #1) by Chloe Liese | The Luckiest Lady in London (The London Trilogy #1) by Sherry Thomas.

Gild (The Plated Prisoner #1) by Raven Kennedy | Diver’s Heart by K.A. Knight

 

Books I Didn’t Get To This Year But Need Too

Books I Didn’t Get To This Year But Need Too

Posted by angelreads Discussions, TBR 2 Comments

There are a lot of books that I want to read. My TBR is never-ending and I just keep on adding to it every day. So today I thought I would share some of the books that I wanted to read this year, but I didn’t get around to it. 

I didn’t read a lot of new releases in 2021, I’m not sure why. I just did a lot of reading of backlist titles from authors and books that have been on my physical tbr for a while now. So there are going to be quite a few books on this list that are new releases that I cannot wait to start. There are also some books on here that I’ve wanted to read for a while and just getting around to it this year. I’ve said this before but I’m a mood reader and sometimes I just don’t want to read something at all. 

But enough of all this, let’s get right into it. There is a mix of new releases and backlist titles. As always these are no order, let’s go. 

The Atlas Six (The Atlas #1) by Olivie Blake | Twisted Games (Twisted #2) by Ana Huang. | The Bridge Kingdom (The Bridge Kingdom #1) by Danielle L. Jensen | Under the Whispering Door by T.J. Klune.

The Jasmine Throne (Burning Kingdoms #1) by Tasha Suri | The Unbroken (Magic of the Lost #1) by C.L. Clark. | Gild (The Plated Prisoner #1) by Raven Kennedy | Ariadne by Jennifer Saint.

Promises and Pomegranates (Monsters & Muses #1) by Sav R. Miller | Firekeeper’s Daughter by Angeline Boulley. | Last Night at the Telegraph Club by Malinda Lo | Iron Widow (Iron Widow #1) by Xiran Jay Zhao.

Daughter of the Deep by Rick Riordan | A Lesson in Thorns (Thornchapel #1) by Sierra Simone. | A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor (Tempting Monsters #1) by Kathryn Moon | Air Awakens (Air Awakens #1) by Elise Kova.

And there we go. Those are the books that I didn’t get to in 2021 but I want to get to next year! Have you read any of these books, what did you think of them? Are you planning on reading them? So, let’s chat! 

My Last Five Reads – December 2021

My Last Five Reads – December 2021

Posted by angelreads Last 5 Reads No Comments

I haven’t done one of these in a while so I thought I would share the last five books that I have read. It’s been up and down so far this month.

December is my busiest time of the year and I just want to go to sleep when I get home from work. But I have managed to read some books recently. In saying that, I’ve been binging two series, so most of what I’ve read are from the same authors and series. Anyway, let’s get into it. 

Kit Davenport #1-3 by Tate James: I finally picked up my next Tate James book. I’ve been trying to figure out what one I wanted to pick up next, and I was in a supernatural book. So I picked up the first in this series The Vixen’s Lead. It took me a little while to get into it, but once everyone was introduced and things started to roll, I enjoyed it a lot more. I think book 3, Tiger’s Ambush is my favourite at the moment. 

Famine (The Four Horsemen #3) by Laura Thalassa: I read Pestilence towards the start of the year, but over the past few weeks I’ve read War and Famine. I was really surprised with how much I enjoyed reading this one. I loved the female protagonist so much. She wasn’t what I expected and I think that is why I loved her so much. This series is intense and it’s not for everyone, but I am loving it so much. So far, War has been my favourite. 

The Sweetest Oblivion (Made #1) by Danielle Lori: This is the latest book that I’ve read as I write this post. this has been on my tbr for some time now, but I wanted to read a contemporary book to break up my supernatural and fantasy reading. Again I enjoyed this more than I was planning on liking it. While I say this, I was expecting it to be a little darker. It’s a mafia romance and there are a lot of questionable things that do happen. It’s wasn’t as dark as I heard it would be. I think the later books get a little darker. I’m really intrigued and cannot wait to read more.

And there we go. Those are my last five reads! What have you read recently? What did you think of them? Have you read any of these books? Let’s chat!

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.
…

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!
