Not quite December wrap up…but still!

 

It’s another one of my late wrap up!!! Yes the September one!

I am running late! I am running late!

I cannot believe it’s December and I have still 3 wrap ups to go and probably a good 7 reviews to write. But that’s ok, plenty of time…right?! 😊
.

Well, since I have the power to stop time (…or at least I like to think so), let’s pretend that we’ve just landed in October so that I can go through what I read in September.

Well, it turns out I had not read that many books in September.

I clearly remember hitting a reading slump. Yes those happen even to me. But those few books I read turned out to be of 5* reads in my books.

The first one was True Fire by Gary Meehan from the #truetrilogy. Highly underrated series I think we really should talk about more. If you are into UKYA you will surely love this.

Here’s my thoughts on this and my interview with Gary which I had the opportunity to do back in September.

Next was Darkmere by Helen Maslin, a beautiful hunting story which will leave you wanting more.

What I really enjoyed about this book was that the ending was left in the end of the reader. Feel free to browse my review to see what I mean 😉.

I remember not being able to pick up another book for a while after Darkmere so I ended up reading a lovely children’s book entitled “Meet At The Ark At Eight” by Ulrich Hub which was a lovely retelling of the Great Flood….with a twist. It ended up being a favourite for me and my little one actually. Both adults and children can enjoy this fab little read.

And, that’s it for my September wrap up!

I will be sure to write up a couple more reviews and do my “Better late than never” October wrap up in the next few days so stay tuned!!!

    I’ve been umming and ahhing about whether to read Darkmere or not. I dunno.. I feel like it should be something I’d love. But there’s something about the blurb that keeps putting me off.

    I’ll read it eventually, I’m sure. 🙂
