Read This Month

January, February & March


As I stated in the beginning of the year, I had my final exams so I wasn't reading or posting that often. So I gathered my monthly wrap-ups for the start of the year in this one.

Part of not reading also meant that I didn't read a classic-a-month like I usually do, but I'll get back to that in April.

Also for this year I decided to add some other data into the wrap-ups, so we'll see how that goes.

Book Cake, TAG

THE INGREDIENTS


Flour – A book that was slow in the beginning, but then really picked up.
The Cardturner by Louis Sachar. It reads like a non-fiction but once you get into it you start liking it

Butter or Margarine – A book that has a really good rich plot.
Harry Potter Going back and reading them always somehow brings more depth and things you didn't notice at first
Eggs – A book you thought you weren’t going to like but ended up loving.
I didn't exactly end up loving them, but I was really pleasantly suprised when I read The Infernal Devices especially because I didn't like the Mortal Instruments as everyone else it seemed
Sugar – A super sweet book.
Stephanie Perkins & Kasie West are two authors whose books I reach when in need of a fluffy book
Icing – A book that covers everything you enjoy in a book (sad, funny, action,…etc.)
Alice in Zombieland has the sadness, funniness, action and fairytaleness that I love
Sprinkles – A book that you can turn to to make you feel better.
Roald Dahl and Dr Seuss books always makes me feel better, even after all my rereads, since they take me back to my childhood
Cherry on Top – The best book you’ve read so far this year.
I've only read a couple of books so far this year, but I'll go with Cinder and Ella
Read on lovelies,
Sally
