March Wrap-Up 2019

This was a weird month. I expected myself to read a lot and then didn’t. Which was especially weird cause none of the books I read were bad, they just didn’t make me feel that much and took way longer than I thought. Anyway, here is the Wrap-Up. Again, all my reviews will be linked with the names of the books.

So this was a weird month. I don’t remember if I ever had a month with so many 4 star ratings. It’s definitely one of my better months rating wise, but I was kinda out of a reading mood. The books I read were good, but I couldn’t get myself to actually feel something.

So let’s start with the worst book I read, before we talk about the one that made me remember I could truly love reading.

It was hard deciding which one of these I liked least, but I had to go with Timo the Adventurer, cause out of all of them I felt least connected to this story. It’s still good, a cute comic for younger teens and an overall enjoyable story.

And now my favourite of the month: The Fever King. I can seriously just scream forever about how much I enjoyed it. I read 80% of this story in one day and I’ll definitely buy a physical copy of it as soon as possible. I loved the romance, the story, the characters, JUST EVERYTHING. And I’m dying to get my hands on the sequel. 2020 can’t be here soon enough.

As for this, I had to push Nevernight over into April. I really wanted to read it this month, but somehow other things always had priority. Well now it’s the first read of April.

I‘m again trying to keep this one short and sensible, but let’s see how that will work out.
