Day 9: Happy Saturday. If you’ve seen my insta stories, you’ll know I’m in Prague right now. It’s the last day here, tomorrow I fly back to the UK. Fortunately the flights not very long - it’ll be spent reading or playing on my Switch. How’s your weekend been? I hope you are all having a a wonderful day. Happy reading.
Day 5: Who else is excited for the release of Blood of Empire? The third and final book in this fantastic trilogy. I’m debating on whether or not to reread these two before it’s release next month... I’ve probably left it a bit late for a reread really. Either way I’m super hyped to see how things conclude. I also love the covers of these books! Anyway have you guys read this one yet? If you haven’t you should really check it out - this trilogy is fantastic. I hope you are all having a wonderful day! Happy reading.
Day 3: Happy Sunday! It’s time for another His Dark Materials post... the tv show starts tonight and I’m away 😭. I will be watching as soon as I get back though. I guess I don’t need to worry about spoilers though since I’ve read the books. I’m always skeptical of bookish adaptations but the trailer and cast looks amazing so I’m hyped for this one. It’s also one of my all time favourite trilogies so I’m excited and nervous at the same time! Are you guys excited for it? I hope you’re all having a wonderful day! Happy reading.
Day 31: I can’t believe it’s getting so close to the end of the year. I don’t think I’m goodreads goal this year... ah well I haven’t been reading as much as I did last year. I’ve still read 60 books so far this year which I’m pretty happy with. Anyway I read three books this month and they were all fantastic. Missing of Clairdelune - 4🌟 Theonite Orbit - 4🌟 The Secret Commonwealth - 4🌟 What have you guys been reading? I hope you’re all having a wonderful day. Happy reading
Day 29: I haven’t done any rereading so far this year... back in my late teens it was pretty much all the reading I did 😂. Anyway hopefully I’ll get some rereading done at some point since there are quite a few books I’d like to revisit! What do you guys think of rereading? Do you do it or is it not your thing? I hope you’re all having a wonderful day. Happy reading.
Day 27: Happy Sunday. I’m currently reading Theonite: Orbit by M. L. Wang, the second book in the Theonite series. I think I’m about a quarter or so of the way in right now and I’m really enjoying it so far. My weekend has consisted of blogging, reading and playing Octopath traveler on my switch. I’m also going for a nice long dog walk later on. How’s your weekend been? I hope you’re all having a wonderful day. Happy reading.
