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!

I'm going to Greece?!

Hey guys! Sorry it's been awhile since my last blog post, I've been busy with work and I just started college again. Speaking of college, I have some interesting news! If you can't tell by the title, I have the chance to go to one of my dream places in the world .I'm making this blog to inform you about an International Education program offered at my college; SUNY Adirondack. This coming May, the Anthropology classes(along with students from different majors) are taking a trip to Greece. This trip is for 2 weeks in May and will count as a credit for college. As of now I don't have a lot of information due to the fact college just started. I do know the main reason we're going is to "visit the heartland of art, science, anthropology, archaeology, and the humanities."(got this off the poster I was given) In this group i'll keep everyone updates and different fundraisers I'll be doing until the end of April.Feel free to share this blog/any even...

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
