My Reading Week | 15th - 21st November | Ali Smith, Erin Sterling & Tolstoy



NOV, 19th - Earlier this morning I finished Summer by Ali Smith. I felt its ending was a bit rushed and I wouldn't have minded staying with these characters a bit longer but all in all I was satisfied with it. Spring remains my favourite out of the four novels. 

NOV, 21st - After being sick for a few days my brain was less foggy to read for longer than a few minutes so I took full advantage of that and managed to read a bit. I finished The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling and although it was a cute and quick read and thankfully the juicy scenes didn't make me cringe, I found that the author use of HP terms a couple of times to explain magical things instead of coming up with her own terms is just very lazy. I also got enough time to finish book II of War&Peace, which means I finished volume I and can continue with volume II.

The Gif Tag!

Jess over at My Reading Dress – seriously, go follow her! – tagged me a while ago to do the Gif Tag and I haven’t been able to post it earlier because I have no clue about technology and I couldn’t make the gifs work so I had to investigate a bit. Also, I haven’t read most of the books of the list. I really hope this works out alright so without further ado, let’s get started! Oh, I might have used more than one gif for some of the books...
