Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell - AWESOME AUGUST WEEK 2

HELLO WELCOME TO THE FIRST DAY OF AWESOME AUGUST WEEK TWO!!!

Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell

Goodreads review: 5/5 stars

Recommended: Highly recommended! If you are a Fangirl, then this is obviously the novel for you. Great characters and heartwarming story. 

Review: 

You probably won’t be able to find a bigger Simon Snow fan than Cath. You can try, but her massive following on her Fanfiction, Carry On, Simon, will probably beg to differ. Cath just gets the characters. College, not so much. It doesn’t help that her roommate of forever, her ‘built-in best friend’ always there twin sister, Wren, decided that she wanted a change this year and is rooming with someone else. She’s left feeling completely alone in a brand new environment, with a new roommate, and her new roommate’s ever present boyfriend. The only constant in Cath’s life is Simon, but when her favourite professor disses fanfiction, Cath isn’t even sure she can count on Simon anymore. 

The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness AWESOME AUGUST WEEK ONE

AWESOME AUGUST DAY 3!!!!

The Knife of Never Letting Go
by Patrick Ness

5/5 stars on Goodreads

Recommended: If you liked the Dustlands series by Moira Young and sci-fi 

Review: 

"The Noise is a man unfiltered, and without a filter, a man is just chaos walking."

Todd Hewitt lives in Prentisstown, a town where privacy is impossible. Every resident in the town of all men can hear each other’s thoughts. It’s not as simple as hearing the inner dialogue of everyone as if they’re talking; their thoughts come out in a choppy, unorganized stream of Noise. One afternoon, Todd and his dog Manchee (whose thoughts Todd can hear) come across a peculiar patch of Noiseless quiet in the swamp, and their lives change dramatically as they uncover dark secrets about Prentisstown and the men that live there. 

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater: AWESOME AUGUST WEEK ONE

WELCOME TO THE FIRST DAY OF AWESOME AUGUST

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater

Goodreads Rating: 5/5 stars

Recommended: I recommend this novel for anyone that is interested in a new adventure to read about. It's new, and exciting, and psychics.

Review.

Psychics and prep school boys. Did that peak your interest?
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater was an intriguing novel right from the start. The first couple of pages had me hooked right away, and once I started, I couldn’t put it down. Granted, that happens a lot when you’re not doing anything on summer break, BUT that doesn’t take away from how good this novel was at all.

BOOKTUBE-A-THON 2014: TBR

BOOKTUBE-A-THON 2014 

YES my friends, it is THAT time of the year again..... BOOKTUBE-A-THON!!!

Though I am not really a BookTuber (I've only posted one video to date), I REALLY like BookTube-A-Thon! I think that the whole idea of a week-long book reading marathon is SO fun, and naturally, I want to participate! 

Unearthly Series by Cynthia Hand

Overall series: 4/5 stars on Goodreads

Recommended: If you like angels, this is a great angel story.... without sounding incredibly obvious.

Review:

I read this series in a really weird way. I read Unearthly nearly two years ago, and I just finished Boundless last week. I read this entire series over the span of two years, and I still enjoyed it all the same. Normally, a series loses me if I have to wait too long to read the next book, but this series didn't.

Blood Red Road (Dust Lands #1) by Moira Young

Blood Red Road
 by Moira Young

5/5 Stars on Goodreads

100%

Recommended if you liked: The Hunger Games/ Katniss Everdeen, Awesome protagonists, unique worlds, dystopian/post-apocalyptic.

Review: SPOILER FREE

I originally had borrowed Blood Red Road from my friend who had it sitting out on her side table forever. She had never read it, and I was curious enough. So, I borrowed it, and in my book club we decided that it would be our BOTM. I'd never heard anybody talk about it before, and I had never heard of Moira Young. We decided that it would be an adventure to read a novel completely unknown to us for our first book club book. Once we read it, we were very glad that we indulged.
