i read 13 books in july 📚 monthly wrap up

I gave Anna Karina 4 out of 5 Stars it was an incredible experience I definitely prefer it over Warren peace because you know instead of focusing so much on the war side of things and like the consequences of lore this focuses more on The Human Condition and the dualities that exist inside all of us and the different love stories that are developed how different types of love can be toxic and they can ruin a person

I think the author does a really incredible job at depicting what it's like for not only the person that it affects but also the people that are around you and it's a very beautiful insight into family and love and grief and I really enjoyed this

I will forever be grateful that I gave Heaven officials blessing a try or a chance even after hating Grand Master of demonic cultivation

this was a good one it was a good installment I liked learning about xia Liang and his asked and how he came to be the person he is today

I will be so honest though reading this felt like I was going through this fever dream because I read this so fast I think I literally finished it in like a day because I started it I blacked out and then it was done don't know what happened I just know that I loved this so much I gave this four stars it was everything

I think that Emily Henry does such a fantastic job and making these characters feel so realistic making them feel like they sort of speak for that part of yourself that you haven't really found words for and I just felt so connected to this book and to these characters and this story and I loved it

I just couldn't connect to the story I didn't really care about these characters which like sucks because I feel like these characters had so much potential

it's so incredible to me how Carissa Broadbent can make me care about these characters and how she can develop them in such a way that they feel so real in less than 150 Pages like not many people can do that and the fact that I'm not the biggest fan of novellas but I still gave this one 4.5 out of 5 stars like that has to tell you something

Riley Sager just does an incredible job with creating this claustrophobic atmosphere and making you feel like you're right there with them like you feel like you're in this car and you feel like you can't breathe at times because it is so like your anxiety is building the Panic is settling in it's just so well done and I haven't really felt that way too many times when I'm reading Thrillers

the ashes and the star cursed King was a 4 out of 5 Star it was a very good follow-up to the first book I was expecting a little bit more like I was expecting to see the characters from the novela that I read at the beginning of the month I expected them to have a little bit more of page time but like overall it was a good follow-up to the first book

even though the pacing wasn't my favorite thing like yeah at times I was just like can we please just fix this car and get a move on like we don't need 22 pages of you trying to find a car part but apart from those few moments where I was like this pacing is not a bestie I still feel like Steinbeck does an incredible job at depicting this dark time in American history

I really enjoyed reading The Kite Runner it's not a book that I would ever reread it's not a book that I would read for fun but I am so glad that I read this book because even though I went through the ringer through the emotional ringer reading this book yeah it was worth it

it was just a very funny reading experience it was very fun and I just love that I didn't take it seriously and as soon as I finished this one I ordered the other two volumes

I think I enjoyed the first book more than the second one because the first one does have the element of a tournament and I am a very big fan of tournaments it's just very bloody and very violent and you know I love me some action and Gore

I felt a lot of things reading this book I cried I got mad I was angry I was happy I was enjoying myself I had fun there were a couple of flaws and a couple of setbacks but overall I really did enjoy this book
