September Wrap-Up!

Considering previous months, September can’t be considered a great reading month for me but I’m happy with the result. My knee has not improved and so it has made me a little bit moody all month long which affected my reading, not gonna lie. Fortunately the seven books I’ve read were great and I’m pleased about it.



1. Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
2. Onyx by Jennifer L. Armentrout
3. Ready Player One by Ernest Cline
4. Opal by Jennifer L. Armentrout
5. Origin by Jennifer L. Armentrout
6. I Was a Teenage Ghost Hunter by Brian K. Henry (ebook)
7. The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan


I decided to read Obsidian because it was the Little Book Club pick of the month and I enjoyed it a lot. It is true it has some similarities with Twilight but I honestly prefer Obsidian. After that I picked up Onyx to know how the story continued. I gave Obsidian 5 stars and Onyx 4.

So, I needed a break from the whole alien world and I made up my mind and finally read ReadyPlayer One and holy molly that book was amazing. I did a review in case you wanna know more about my thoughts but I gave it 4.5 stars.

Immediately after I read Opal and Origin, books 3 and 4 in the Lux series and they were perfect to lighten up my mood even though the ending of Opal was heart-breaking. I gave them both 5 stars. And one might think that after that I would dive into Opposition straightaway but no. Instead I picked up I Was aTeenage Ghost Hunter and I loved it, 5 stars. Perfect ghost story and I also did a review of it.

Finally, I read The Mark of Athena and of course I gave it 5 stars. My plan was to read that and The House of Hades but I only managed to finish the third book (and now I’m currently reading The House of Hades) in preparation for the fifth and final book in the Heroes of Olympus series. And I’m sad that it is coming to an end because I love those books and is gonna be hard to say goodbye.

Go follow me on Goodreads!

And that’s all I’ve read in September. How did you do this month? Are you happy with your reading? Let me know!

    Book Review // The Improbability of Love by Hannah Rothschild

    The Improbability of Love  by Hannah Rothschild { Goodreads } Published by Bloomsbury in 2016 Paperback edition; 479 pages { BookDepository } The Improbability of Love follows a bunch of different characters all involved in different ways with the art-world scene in London when a very famous painting –which gives name to the novel – is found by Annie, the main protagonist we could say, in a thrift shop. Don’t be fooled by the cover which screams chick-lit through and through; the novel deals with so much more.

    Weekend Reads

    This weekend I'm planning on finishing El día de año nuevo y otros cuentos maravillosos  - a short story collection by Vladímir Odóievski that so far it's simply okay nothing really special- and reading a chunk of Outlander . I'm halfway through the latter and so far, it's a very enjoyable read; I started watching the TV show last year when it premiered but stopped after some episodes because I wanted to read the book. I'm finally caught up with what I saw and from now on I don't know what's going to happen which makes me wanna read even more. What are your plans for the weekend?
