A Slow Reading Month | August Wrap Up

Posted by angelreads Monthly Wrap Up No Comments

August was probably one of the worst reading months I have had in a while and it was just slow. I was in a massive reading slump, super busy with work, and didn’t know what I wanted to read. So here we are it’s the end of the month I only managed to read just over 10 books. For me that is very much on the smaller side of what I do normally read.

So here are the books that I read this month. It was a range of romance this month from contemporary to fantasy and more. I read a lot of series, and books from the same author. But it just made this slump a little easier to get through. So let’s go.

Wait With Me (Wait With Me #1) by Amy Daws – 3 Stars | Headcase (Necessary Evils #4) by Onley James – 4 Stars. | Ruthless Fae (Zodiac Academy #2) by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti – 3.5 Stars | The Reckoning (Zodiac Academy #3) by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti – 3 Stars.

Shadow Princess (Zodiac Academy #4) by Caroline Peckham Susanne Valenti – 4 Stars | Audrey (Castle Omega #1) by Elle Lincoln – 2 Stars. | Mixed Signals (Lovelight #3) by B.K. Borison – 4.5 Stars | Faking with Benefits by Lily Gold – 3.5 Stars.

Nanny for the Neighbors by Lily Gold – 4 Stars | Three Swedish Mountain Men by Lily Gold – 3.5 Stars.

And there we go. Those are the books that I read this August. Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? How was you reading this August? I’m hoping this pickup and I don’t have a slow September. I’m getting to the busiest time of the year at work. So it’s going to be interesting. Let’s Chat!

Books I Wish Were On My School Syllabus

Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 4 Comments

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

It’s school freebie time this week, and I thought I would share the books that if I was currently in school, I would love to be on my syllabus. I’ve been out of school for some time now, but I am doing this week’s list, as though I’m currently in school.

I honestly 0nly loved maybe two of the books that I read in high school. I didn’t hate all of the others but I also didn’t enjoy them. Today I’m sharing some modern books that I think would be perfect for school syllabuses. So let’s go. As always these are in no order.

The Hate U Give (The Hate U Give #1) by Angie Thomas | This is How We Change the Ending by Vikki Wakefield. | How It Feels to Float by Helena Fox | Some Girls Are by Courtney Summers.

Dear Martin (Dear Martin #1) by Nic Stone | The Poet X by Elizabeth Acevedo | The Surprising Power of a Good Dumpling by Wai Chim. | Disruption (Disruption #1) by Jessica Shirvington.

Heartstopper: Volume One (Heartstopper #1) by Alice Oseman | The Gaps by Leanne Hall.

And there we go. Those are the books that I wished were on my school syllabus when I was at school. If you didn’t notice a lot fo the books on here, are from Austalian authors. I think it’s so important that we not only read books from Aussie authors, but the life of an Australian. But there are also some other books on here, that I think are such important reads.

Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? What books did you wish were on your school syllabus? So, Let’s Chat!

Posted by angelreads TBR 1 Comment

There are so many books that I want to read. So many. But today I thought I would share with you the books I really want to read by the end of the year. I might not be able to read all of these but I am going to give it a go.

Some of these are from series that I have already started, some are from authors I love and some are ones that I really just want to read. Like most of the year, nearly all of the books on this list are romance. It’s honestly all I am reading at the moment. And I’m loving it. I hadn’t included books that are yet to be released. So let’s go. As always these are in no real order.

Wicked Beauty (Dark Olympus #3) by Katee Robert | Cursed Fates (Zodiac Academy #5) by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti. | Mad Man (Necessary Evils #5) by Onley James. | That Time I Got Drunk and Yeeted a Love Potion at a Werewolf (Mead Mishaps #2) by Kimberly Lemming.

All Rhodes Lead Here by Mariana Zapata | Rock Hard (Rock Kiss #2) by Nalini Singh | Promises and Pomegranates (Monsters & Muses #1) by Sav R. Miller. | Written in the Stars (Written in the Stars #1) by Alexandria Bellefleur.

And there we go. Those are the books that I would want to read by the end of the year. Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? What do you want to have read by the end of the year?
