Book Tag: August Wrap Up

Every month i was planning on doing a monthly wrap up, and recap the books i read for the month, along with my top reads. My top reads for July were young Love by Alyson Santos, Four Day Fling by Emma Hart, Someone Else's Ocean by Kate Stewart, End Game by Emily Goodwin and my rereads of Broken by Ellie Messe and Crowned With Guilt by S.K. Rose Seriously, I loved them all. (You can find my full recap  Here ). In August I read a total of 10 books.  The first book I read was the Room Mate by Kendall Ryan.  I enjoyed this book. And although it wasn't my favorite and there was much to be desired it was still a great read. 3.5⭐ out of 5⭐.  Review Then I moved on to Wild by Nanna Malone and M Malone.  This book was a quick read. I love best friends sibling books, it has that touch of forbiddeness, and sometimes even has that hint of fun or lightness to it. The dynamic to Talia and Cage was a little more rushed than I would have liked but still a great fun read....

Review: Nightingale

Title: Nightingale Author: Amy Lukavics Release Date: Sept 25 Blurb: At seventeen, June Hardie is everything a young woman in 1951 shouldn’t be—independent, rebellious, a dreamer.

Review: Black Wings Beating

Title: Black Wings Beating Series: Skybound Author: Alex London Release Date: September 25  Blurb: The people of Uztar have long looked to the sky with hope and wonder. Nothing in their world is more revered than the birds of prey and no one more honored than the falconers who call them to their fists. Brysen strives to be a great falconer--while his twin sister, Kylee, rejects her ancient gifts for the sport and wishes to be free of falconry. She's nearly made it out, too, but a war is rolling toward their home in the Six Villages, and no bird or falconer will be safe. Together the twins must journey into the treacherous mountains to trap the Ghost Eagle, the greatest of the Uztari birds and a solitary killer. Brysen goes for the boy he loves and the glory he's long craved, and Kylee to atone for her past and to protect her brother's future. But both are hunted by those who seek one thing: power. Review: Ok, first things first. Alex London is a new to me au...
