On Tour with Prism Book Tours Sword of Soter (Sacred Armor Trilogy #2) By Ralene Burke YA Fantasy, Christian Paperback & ebook, 275 Pages September 25th 2019 by Elk Lake Publishing Inc NEW KINGDOM. NEW FRIENDS. NEW DANGERS. NOT EVERYONE CAN BE TRUSTED … Karina, Tristian, Rashka, and Sam venture forth into the wilderness of Soter on the next leg of their quest to retrieve the Armor of the Creator. With the ancient evil already affecting the kingdom, nothing in Soter is what it seems—from what skulks beneath the canopies of the woods to what lies within the sleek white and gold of the capitol city to the people Karina and Tristan have known since they were children. Danger lurks around every corner. Discerning who to trust is paramount to staying alive and discovering the location of the Temple of Soter. Yet, to Karina’s horror, Faramos’s reach finds them time and again. The longer they are forced to dawdle, the more people are affected by the growing panic in Soter, and the ...
Hey everyone! Welcome to June!
Books read this month:
Boys Don't Knit and After Iris was this month's library haul, and I'm very much looking forward to both! I've had the sequel to After Iris for a little while now so I'm looking forward to being able to finally read it. I've also heard really good things about Boys Don't Knit so I'm hoping that will be a fun read. I was super excited when Say Her Name dropped through my letterbox - definitely will be reading that one as soon as I can! Lastly does anyone know if I can read The Maleficent Seven without having read the other Skulduggery Pleasant books? I'd like to read them, of course, but there are so many of them... :P I also got a sneaky preview of Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo but that's not pictured - which reminds me I need to catch up with Siege and Storm! Huge thanks to Hot Key Books, HarperCollins, Simon and Schuster, Indigo and Chicken House for all of my goodies this month!
Books read this month:
1. Allegiant by Veronica Roth
2. The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde (reread)
3. We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
Exams started on 12th May so I've not had that much time to read lately, but I've got a break in between exams now for half term so hopefully I'll be able to get lots of books read in between revision! This month I finally read Allegiant and finished Tris' story. I LOVED it and thought the ending was really well done, despite what a lot of other people have said about it. I definitely recommend this series! I had to reread Dorian Gray for my English exam (which went okayish I think) but that's all done now so I NEVER HAVE TO READ IT AGAIN WOOOO because I hate it. I loathe it with a passion, from the bottom of my heart... Don't shoot me! ;) Anyway, strong feelings for Dorian aside, I also read We Were Liars, as part of the #liarsliveread that took place on Twitter on 17th May. It was SUPER FUN and a really great book too! Out of Control was also fabulous and I really enjoyed it. I have a fun guest post from Sarah too, which you should definitely check out (link below)!
My favourite book of the month though was Lobsters, which I read in one sitting after my longest and most feared exam. It was just sooo good and so awkward and so lovable and gah it was FABULOUS. I also interviewed the authors this month, and you can read that here. (Although Out of Control and We Were Liars also deserve an honourable mention here!)
