This month, I read 5 books, which totaled only about 1019 pages, almost 1500 pages LESS than the previous month 😬 To be fair, this was a terrible month for me in general. I have been SO stressed out that my brain cannot focus on reading (or blogging) right now. Anyway...
- 2 were full-length novels, 2 novellas, and 1 manga
- 3 were part of a series and 2 were standalone
- I started 2 series this month and caught up on 1
- 3 were finished copies and 2 ARCs
- 1 was a physical book and 4 were an ebooks
- 1 was a 5-star book, 3 were 4 stars, and 1 was 3 stars
- 1 was indie published and 4 were traditionally published
- 1 was by a new-to-me author and 4 were by authors I've previously read
- 4 were adult books and 1 YA
- 1 was nonfiction and 4 were fiction
- 3 were sci-fi, 1 adventure, and 1 about writing
Books read this month:
Write Your Own Cake was a very interesting essay with very helpful tips on writing series. As I mentioned in my review of the book though, as a reader, I just really liked getting an insight into how my favorite author writes some of my favorite series 😆
Cold Eternity was a pretty good sci-fi horror. All three of S.A. Barnes's sci-fi horrors have been solid 4-star reads for me. They aren't amazing, but they always hit the spot when it comes to horror set in space.
Salvation Day though, not great. Also not terrible, but not great. It was just kinda... meh 🤷♀️
On the other hand, I loved Full Speed to a Crash Landing! It was SO much fun! I loved the protagonist and the interactions between the characters. I also liked that it was a novella, so it was short. Lol.
And A Gentle Noble's Vacation Recommendation I just read today because I needed to read something before the week was over due to the 52 books in 52 weeks challenge I'm doing, so I fell back on manga... again 😆 And I liked it! It was fun! It was giving me gay vibes, which I was loving, but then I read that the author mentioned that this is not meant to be BL (boy love) which was severely disappointing to me. The author saying that it's NOT gay makes it even MORE gay tbh, and the internet agrees with me, so there 😂
