Read this month: October

It's still not going to well for me and my reading goals, guys.

This month I reviewed: The Blood of Olympus, In the After Light, and The Retribution of Mara Dyer.

The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan

Overall rating: 85%

There were no Percy or Annabeth chapters and I have unanswered questions! It was still super fun to read and I really enjoyed reading from Nico's POV.

In the After Light by Alexandra Bracken

Overall rating: 70%

I had many issues with this book unfortunately.

The Retribution of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin

Overall rating: 90%

It was really worth the wait. It was witty and dark. Intriguing and entertaining. The characters developed beautifully and the ending was satisfying.

Heir of Fire review and discussion

All of the stars because Celaena rattles the stars. Spoiler free review Celaena returns bent and broken but damn she made a speedy recovery. We are introduced to new characters and new plots in this installment of the series. It was formidable. All of it. The writing was amazing, the character development was better than ever and the story is beyond words. I highly highly recommend every book in this series. Novellas and everything. I think it's safe to say that this is my favourite series of all time. I love it even more than The Infernal Devices trilogy. I'm so sorry Will but it's the truth. If I go into any detail at all it will spoil you so I'm just going to leave this hoping that you all get the message.

Onyx by Jennifer L. Armentrout review/discussion

These books are really good to read over a longer period of time. I read a few pages every night before going to bed and it was the highlight of my day. I think that if you read it in one sitting you'll get way too annoyed with the characters and then you'll end up hating the book. Sooooo if you have yet to read these books (or if you tried reading them but just couldn't because of hair pulling and book throwing all the frustration it caused, I recommend taking on a new approach. Take baby steps. Don't bite off more than you can chew, if you will. Try reading it little by little. No spoilers section (I don't think anyone's reading this seeing as I am the last person on earth to read these books) Daemon earned serious brownie points in this book and Katy didn't even see it. HE BUYS HER A STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE !!! I'd marry him right then and there. I found Katy and Dee's relationship lacking though. They addressed this issue near the end but it ...
