Wrap-Up: December 2013


 


Hey book nerds! :) I've finally managed to film, edit and upload my wrap-up for the last month of last year. ^.^ I apologise if the editing is a little choppy, I've recently gotten a new editing software, and I'm still learning how to use it properly! :P I'm afraid I haven't really gotten a whole lot else to say to you today, things are pretty much exactly how they were yesterday, especially with my reading! I've been procrastinating, even though I really should be reading my review book.. ^^; Oh well, that's it for today - I hope you all have a great week and I'll chat to you again soon. ^.^

Christmas 2013 Book Haul


 


Hey book nerds! ^.^ It's time for another book haul - Christmas edition! :D I'm so excited to be able to share with you guys you books I received for Christmas this year, because they're just so pretty and I want to read them all now. :3 I'm so thankful to my parents and my friends who gave me these books - please note, that this is in no way bragging! As for my reading status, I finally completed my 100 book challenge on Good Reads the day before yesterday, with my 100th book being Easy by Tammara Webber. I'm now reading another book called Stella by Helen Eve - but I'm really not far enough into it yet to comment. :P Well, that's it for today - I hope you guys had a great Christmas - I certainly did! :D

Thoughts


I also received a £10 Amazon Gift card from my other best friend, Emmie - and I bet you can all guess what I'm going to spend it on! :P I LOVE my friends and family! And I'm so excited to have all of these books in my collection. I want to read them all now, but I'm not sure which to start first, they all look so amazing. :D They also all have some seriously gorgeous covers! I don't know which covers are my favourites, as they're all so pretty - but Across the Universe and A Million Suns are beautiful, but I also really love the cover for Embrace. Ahh, I can't decide - what do you think? Have you read any of these books? Let me know! ^.^

December 2013 Book Haul


 


Hey book nerds! :D I bring to you today, one of the biggest book hauls I've hauled yet! ^.^ I've final managed to get around to filming with my new camera, and taken the pictures with it too. :D As for my reading status, last night I finished reading Trapped by Michael Northrop, and I enjoyed it - it was good book, but very slow and I didn't feel like anything happened until the ending! Also, the characters just sort of sat around and did nothing, which was quite boring.. o.O So yeah, I gave it 3.5/5 stars. As for what I’m going to be reading next, I’m not entirely sure, but it’ll be a review book. :D That's it for today, I haven't got a whole lot to say, as nothing really is going on at all - I've just been getting ready for Christmas! Have a good week all of you. :)

Thoughts


So many books, so little time! I brought and received so many books this month, I don't know where to begin. :D Unfortunately I'm on a strict book buying ban from now on until way after Christmas. This is because of two reasons; 1) I'm getting lots of books for Christmas and 2) I've run out of room to store them, and I mean this literally. There is NO more room. D: However, I am really excited to have all of these books in my collection, and I can't decide which I'm the most excited for! They all have such gorgeous covers as well... As for the e-books, you know the drill. ;P All of them were freebies on Amazon at the time of purchase, and if you go check - they still might be! As for my favourite e-book covers, it's probably a toss-up between A Summer to Remember, Deadborn and Astral Essence - they're just so pretty. :) Have you read any of these books? Let me know! ^.^
