Review: Lord of Shadows

Lord of Shadows by Cassandra Clare
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

(9.28.17) I'll write a review when I have time but right now my heart is torn into pieces. How can so much happen in just 10 pages?!

Review (12.4.17). Read June 15th-September 28th 2017

It took me a while to finish this, mainly because I was working and got into a huge reading slump. I' writing the review now because I completly forgot to.

I honestly enjoyed this more than LM! I loved the way we learnt more about Diana and Dru. I've been waiting so long( actually over a year since LM) to hear what was up with Diana. I wont go into detail because spoilers, but lets just say i'm glad Clare is incorporating basically everything with the LGBTQ+ community. Back to Dru, can I just say that I love how this 13yr old basically told her brother(who is basically their parent) "Nah i'm going with you. idc". She's grown up so much in just a book, honestly.
Character development in general is amazing and I really love how one thing can affect someone/thing and just change everything.

I was hoping they would be able to help Annabel but you know, nothing goes how you want it too.

Reading Goals for 2018

Hey everyone! ( γεια σε όλους ! [gotta practice that Greek]) I haven't written about books in awhile mainly about how i'm going to Greece in the spring. Last year I read 44 books out of my goal of 40, which is surprising because I took about 2 months of not reading anything due to the end of the semester and working. In September when I started driving back and forth to college again, instead of listening to music, I decided to listen to books. Audible really helped me get out of my book lump and I've read 10 books in 3 months and two weeks of driving back and forth. I would also listen to the books during the weekend when I was cleaning my room or if I had to drive somewhere. On Goodreads, I wanted to clean up my selves a bit, so I created a new shelf "own not read" and I marked all the books I currently own( e-books and physical) instead of marking them as "to read". I currently have 239 physical books, minus a few textbooks from college, most...

What I'm Doing in Greece 7-9

Day 07: 26 May PYLOS Half day Sfaktiria Island Boat Trip. Archaeological Museum This morning we rise early and transfer to the wharf and at 08h00 board our private chartered boat (exclusive to our group) for our half day boat tour to Sfaktiria Island. Between 1821 and 1832 CE, the Greeks fought a war of independence against the occupying Ottoman Turks. On 20 th October, 1827 CE a naval battle was fought in the bay at Pylos. The Battle of Navarino was fought by the Greeks and their allies; Britain, France and Russia, against the Ottoman Turks. This was a decisive defeat for the Ottoman and Egyptian forces, and a pivotal victory for the Greeks, who’s success at Navarino led to eventual Greek independence. The Battle of Navarino was the last major naval battle in history to be fought entirely with sailing ships, although most ships fought whilst at anchor. The Allies' victory was achieved through superior firepower and gunnery. The involvement of the English and French was pr...
