Review: The Iron Trial

The Iron Trial by Holly Black
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I haven't read anything by Holly Black yet but I picked up this book because Cassandra Clare was co-writing it. I'm a little bias when it comes to her writing, only because I'm in love with her Shadowhunters Series(no matter how many she will make.) When I heard the third book of this series was coming out, I figured I should hurry up and finish this first one then buy the next two. I first got this book a few months after it came out in 2014 and it's just taking me a few years to get into it and read it.

At first it was hard to read, I've been in a slight reading slump for a while and I haven't been reading a lot (very sad about that) but anyway, thanks to Audio books I was able to finish this book.

When I picked up this book and started to read it, I thought Callum was going to be about 17, only because that's the ages in Shadowhunters. Now that I'm 18, it felt weird reading about a younger character. It was harder to relate to some things. I also figured out that Callum is not pronounced like Calum (Only going by how the audio book says it). Anyway, the whole storyline felt a little like Harry Potter. I don't know why, but it might've been because they were 12 and could do magic? Nethertheless, it was still a great fun little read to help me get into reading about. Now I just have to pick up the second and third book and get all caught up!

Janurauy Wrap Up

Hey everyone! ( γεια σε όλους ! ) January seemed to go on forever, right? I manged to read six books! So i reread my last blog post about reading and I noticed I didn't complete any of those to read or currently reading. Whoops? That's besides the point because i'm almost finished with those books now! I've listened to a few books last month so those are included in the six! If you're not aware, I made a book club on Goodreads (Just Another Book Club) and the current book of the month is Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi. I have had this book for years and I have been wanting to pick it up so i'm glad we are reading this! I'm also reading a book for my college English class that I won't finish this month due to the fact she wants us to read it all together. Read : Percy Jackson and the Singer of Apollo by Rick Riordan (e-book) Knight of the Word by Terry Brooks (audio book/physical) Ilse Witch by Terry Brooks (audio book/ physical) Angel Fi

Review: Username: Regenerated

Username: Regenerated by Joe Sugg My rating: 0 of 5 stars When he announced he was releasing another book, I literally jumped up and down. I'm not one to read graphic novels but honestly, I really want to start reading them. Can't wait to get my hands on this! View all my reviews
