May, June and July 2012 Round-Up

I've been a bad blogger, everybody, I know... But it's August now, it's the holidays, and I want to get back into blogging properly! So here is a round-up of everything I've read since I last did one of these round-ups... ;P

MAY

1. Black Heart Blue by Louisa Reid
2. Struck by Jennifer Bosworth
3. The Gathering Dark by Leigh Bardugo

Only four that month! This was my first exam month though, so that's why... Now, onto June! 

JUNE

The Glimpse  Emma Hearts LA  The Golden Lily (Bloodlines, #2)

2. Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson
3. The Glimpse by Claire Merle
4. Devilish by Maureen Johnson
5. Emma Hearts LA by Keris Stainton

But I guess I can't use exams as an excuse... As in June I had three compared to the one I had in May and still read a whole two more books! Lastly, July! 

JULY

Starcrossed  Dreamless (Starcrossed, #2)  Debutantes

1. Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini (reread)
2. Dreamless by Josephine Angelini
3. Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler
4. Debutantes by Cora Harrison
5. Endlessly by Kiersten White

So July wasn't that great either... Oh well! School's over, and I'm going on holiday for two weeks and am planning to do nothing but read and watch Doctor Who so I should get lots read in August, hopefully! 

Oh my goodness, next is my monthly maths... 

Number of pages read in May: 1311

Well that was fun... ;P So my favourite books of these months were: 

May: THE GATHERING DARK by Leigh Bardugo
June: SECOND CHANCE SUMMER by Morgan Matson
July: ENDLESSLY by Kiersten White

The Gathering Dark  Second Chance Summer  Endlessly (Paranormalcy, #3)


And these are the books I'm most looking forward to reading in August: 

Foretold (The Demon Trappers, #4)  Speechless  Amy & Roger's Epic Detour

And I'm not going to count up all the comments... I can't be bothered and I'm tired ;P Also decided to put some new releases in August at the bottom so that you can see what is coming out instead of just a whole post on it because they take AGES. So sorry for lots to read but I hope it's interesting and a break from just the reviews that I've been posting the last couple of months or so! I love you guys for sticking with me, if you're still here, you are officially AWESOME. And now, with those new releases! 

Rift  Debutantes  Foretold (The Demon Trappers, #4)
Endlessly (Paranormalcy, #3)  Pushing the Limits  Gods And Warriors (Gods And Warriors, #1)
  Losing Lila (Lila, #2)  Everneath

Book Review: Insight by Jamie Magee

Title: Insight Author: Jamie Magee Series: Insight #1 Pages: 314 Date of UK Publications: July 20th 2010 Source: Received free for a blog tour/event Synopsis from Goodreads: Before that fateful summer night, Willow had balanced the insight of emotion, and the vivid images.

In order to save them, she must weave through broken myths and the undeniable power of the Zodiac. In the end, Willow discovers that at the moment of our birth we are all given a divine gift. My Thoughts: Insight was a good book. The plot was well thought out, and the characters were complex and real. It was a strong debut novel,
