A Day in Bookland

Guys, are you aware of the fact that tomorrow will be 2015? ARE YOU? On one hand, I want 2014 to end because it hasn't been the greatest, especially since the end of summer but on the other hand, I'm scared about 2015. Anyways, I'm here to talk about my reading this month and as most of you would know, it hasn't been the greatest but, to be honest, I don't care. Here you have them: 1. Shadow and Bone  by Leigh Bardugo 2. Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo 3. Paper Towns  by John Green 4. Gifted  by H. S. Stone 5. The Evolution of Mara Dyer  by Michelle Hodkin

November is over and there is only one month left before 2014 is over. I’m still trying to not think about it. Anyhow, this month I’ve read 11 books. Don’t ask me why, because I don’t know. I did participate in a read-a-thon but that still does not explain why I’ve read this much. Honestly, is still a mystery to me taking into account I’ve been quite stressed with Uni work. 1. Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve Tucholke 2. Opposition by Jennifer L. Armentrout 3. A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness 4. At First Sight by Heather Todd 5. The Monstrumologist by Rick Yancey 6. Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson 7. Saga vol. 1 by Brian K. Vaughan 8. Let’s Get Lost by Adi Alsaid 9. The Diviners by Libba Bray 10. Hearts to Follow by Dana Burkey 11. Snow Like Ashes by Sara Raasch

October is almost over and I wasn’t really planning on uploading my monthly wrap-up until tomorrow but, well, I have nothing better to do and I’m bored. I’ve read six books this month and I’m gonna start doing some sort of mini-reviews on my wrap-ups to make up for not fully reviewing every book I read. And I think just throwing titles here and there and just telling my rating and whether I like the book or not no longer seems enough for me in a way. So here we go: 1. The House of Hades by Rick Riordan 2. Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake 3. The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan 4. Girl of Nightmares by Kendare Blake 5. The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin 6. Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ramson Riggs

With October being almost over (I still need to process this…) I thought it was a good time to upload another monthly playlist, don’t you think? These 20 songs have been on repeat almost all month long. Some I discovered a week or so ago but they made it to the list because they were awesome and some others have been my favourites for a long time but I kind of rediscovered them this October. We also have instrumental. You guy know I can’t live with it; it’s what accompanies me while reading so of course some of them will be in the playlist.

By now you may know, or maybe not, that  music is a huge part of my life. I can’t live without her basically. It is my great companion. Ask anyone who knows me. I’m always with my headphones on, which is great when you are kind of an anti-social person. Or rather an introvert. So, what is all this rambling you might be wondering? Or maybe not since you’ve probably read the title… Well, I decided to start sharing with you guys what songs I’ve been listening during the month and if you like the idea I might make it a monthly thing, like a wrap-up or something. I’ll make a list of my 20 most listened songs. That way we can recommend each other music. Isn’t it great? Enough talking and more listing… A warning: there might be different songs from the same band or singer and they aren’t in any particular order. Also, they don’t have to be new releases or anything.
