September TBR

It is September now!!
Time is passing by so quickly! Since I am going to have my Final year exams soon, I will just be planning to read 2 books! Also, in my previous blog post, I mentioned about me having a one week term break, so hopefully I can get some reading done!

The two books I am aiming to finish will be:

- The Forever Song by Julie Kagawa
(I am already halfway through this book and it is just so amazing!! So I guess there is no problem in finishing this book in September!)
Next is:
-Don't Look Back by Jennnifer L. Armentrout!
(I love her books and her writing style, so hopefully I can immerse myself in this book and enjoy it!)

I have 2 other books which I am planning to read, but don't really have high hopes of finishing it so let's get on with it!
1. Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
2. Pulled Under ( the sequel to Sixteenth Summer ) by Michelle Dalton

So hope you enjoy this blog post and have a fun time reading!

August to be read!

Woah! Time you got to slow down! It felt like it was only July yesterday! Well yeah, July did only ended yesterday... Oh shucks, forget it. Let's get started on what I am going to read this August! :D

I am just going to try and read as much as possible, but I have exams coming up soon so let's just not get too ambitious about reading plans for now.

So I am going to only read one book this month: 1. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire!
It's a huge book so pardon me if it takes me *cough a year cough* to finish it. Hehes, I hope it won't be that long. Hopefully I can maximise my reading period this month and finish reading it! :)

Once again, happy reading and I hope you enjoy the books that you are planning to read this month! :D

July Wrap Up

Hi guys!

July has ended so quickly once again! Sadly, I didn't manage to read a lot. 1 book which is quite shameful for me. And that book is *drum roll* Eleanor&Park! That was kind of obvious...
Well nevermind that, moving on, I do hope you guys enjoy your reading time in July, although I didn't because I didn't have any time to read!! Oh well, its okay, I just hope you guys did! :)

So once again, Happy reading in the month of August until next time! :D

Late Friday Reads #4

Hi guys! What are you all reading now? I just finished Eleanor&Park today(Saturday) and I think I will be reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Huge book so I don't think I can finish it any time sooner, but it's going to be fun! XD

Happy reading until next time! :)

Review : Eleanor and Park ( NO SPOILERS)

I just finished reading Eleanor and Park today and I felt a need to write out how I feel about it.

I give this book 4.5 Stars! Really worth the time reading and I really enjoyed it a lot.

At first I was sort of hesitant about finishing this book but now, I think that it was really worth it, putting all my time into this book and actually finish reading it and understood everything about Eleanor. Although I didn't like the writing of Rainbow Rowell in this book, but the story line was great so I guess it is still quite OK.
The way Eleanor dressed and did not mind how the others around her think of her. She is practically in her own world until Park came into her life. Park treated her so carefully, like she was a fragile doll that could break any moment. It was so sweet every time they talked together and hanged out.
However I did not liked the way Rainbow Rowell chose the country of birth of her characters like Park's mother being a Korean. I mean it is a nice way to represent them being Asian but the way she talked, it does not really show that she is Asian but more of like a kid trying to talk for the first time. Her English made it hard for me to understand but it is still readable.
What I don't really get was why Eleanor's mother had to re-marry. I mean if she can divorce her previous husband, then why can't she do it again? How is she even able to withstand the sight of her children being abused everyday and is still able to live with this kind of person? Especially when she herself is also being mistreated. Why doesn't she just divorce this guy so she can have a much happier life together with her children?
I felt that Eleanor is a very unique girl which cannot be found in other books. Her life is quite similar to ours, it is common in the real life, cases where the children are being abused by their step-parents. The way Eleanor felt, all the pain and how she suffered all the time when she got humiliated by her stepfather and her classmates, I totally understood it and felt it myself too.
However, initially I though that she was a bit messed up in the head. She should be feeling happy whenever Park complimented her, yet she acted weirdly by crying instead of being happy. But I understood why she acted like this all the time, now that I have read the book.

Late Friday Reads #3

Hi guys! It's Friday again! Time is passing by so quickly that I am losing track of it already! Which explains why it's posted late. ^_^''' So here is an update on what I am currently reading!

Scarlet by Marissa Meyer! Determined to finish this book this weekend!

After that might be continuing with Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

 I am so busy with school and stuff right now, hardly able to find a time to squeeze in my reading time into my schedule!

What are you guys reading? Share with me too!

Until then, enjoy your time with your books! :)
