Hey everyone! Hope you're having a good summer so far! Sorry for not posting for a while, again, but I've been busy! I'll tell you about that later on in the post though. Also, I won't be posting anything this week, but I'm hoping to start up again around the 4th August. So, onto what I've been reading this month!
I've had Anna Dressed In Blood for so long and I've only ever heard good things, so I thought it was about time I read it! It was super awesome so I went on to read the sequel, Girl of Nightmares, straight away. While not as good as the first, I still really enjoyed it! All Our Yesterdays was really, really good, and hopefully I'll get my review of that up soon. I absolutely loved Vivian Versus the Apocalypse, which was from Hot Key Books and out in September, as is The Rig. Those two books were last year's winner of the Young Writers Prize award and they're definitely worthy, I think!
I didn't read as much as I wanted to this month, because it was my first month of holiday and I've been busy doing lots of things with friends and family and haven't really had that much time to myself. Also, I did some work experience! It was for four days at Usborne Publishing, and it was super fun and I really enjoyed it. I did it for school, and there's a blogging competition for it, so if I blog about my experience for school I'll be sure to post it here too, for you all to read if you're interested!
My book of the month was...
ALL OUR YESTERDAYS by Cristin Terrill
Hopefully I'll be reviewing this one soon! It's a time travel thriller, and it's awesome.
I only posted a couple of reviews this month, and you can read those here:

Thanks for reading! What have you been up to this July?
Have fun on holiday, Bella! I finished The Fifth Wave a few days ago and absolutely adored it. It's so unique. I really can't praise it enough.
ReplyDeleteYour work experience sounds really good, so I'd happily read your post.
Good luck for August!
I'm nearly finished with All Our Yesterdays and although I've enjoyed it, I'm not completely in love with it. Glad you were though!
