October Wrap-Up (2018)

Hey everyone,  Victoria here! Today I'm going to be sharing with you my October wrap-up! I only read 1 book in October, which I'm a bit disappointed with, but I was in a reading slump for most of the month. I've also been very busy and tired lately, so it's been hard to find the time and motivation to read. Anyways, let's talk about what I read this month...


1.) Heretics Anonymous by Katie Henry
Rating: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️  . 5 / ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️  (3.5/5)













I finished this book a while ago, so I don't remember everything that happened in this book but I'll do my best. I really enjoyed this book! I liked the storyline (since it was like nothing I've ever read before) and the characters were really relatable. Even though I've never gone to a Catholic school, I found the situations the main character was going through really interesting and relatable. The aspects of this that lowered my rating were that I thought it dragged on a bit and some of the plot points felt a bit unnecessary. The best thing about this book was the DRY HUMOR! The sarcasm was spot on and I was constantly chuckling while reading it. Overall, I would definitely recommend this book to you if you're looking for a pick me up read!



These are all the books that I read in October! Be sure to check out my TBR for November to see what I'm planning on reading this month and let me know in the comments if you read any of these books! See you next week with another new post!

-xoxo Victoria

Library Book Sale Book Haul!

Hey everyone, Victoria here! Today I wanted to do a haul of the books I got from a book sale that my library had. All of these books were super cheap (paperbacks were $1.00 and hardcovers were $1.50), so I went a bit crazy! Let's just get right into the haul! Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn I just realized that this is being adapted into a TV mini-series (I think), but when I picked this up, I thought it would be a creepy and mysterious read to explore during October! All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr Y'ALL! I FOUND THIS IN HARDCOVER FOR ONLY $1.50! WHAT A STEAL!! I've been wanting to read this book for such a long time and I've heard nothing but great things about it. So glad I was able to pick it up for such a good price! The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern I know so many Booktubers that love this book and constantly hype it up, and I want to see how I'll like it. I think this would be a good one to read in spooky month (aka October...

Hi everyone, Victoria here! Sorry, I didn't have a post go up last week but today I'm going to be doing the finally fall book tag!!  I'm so happy that its finally fall, as fall is my favorite season! Anyways, let's jump right into the questions!  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the fall, the air is crisp and clear: name a book with a vivid setting!  For this one, I'm gonna have to go with Sea Witch by Sarah Henning! The seaside town setting was just so eerie and enhanced the story and made it such an enjoyable read!  Nature is beautiful...but also dying: name a book that is beautifully written but also deals with a heavy topic like loss or grief  Girl Made of Stars by Ashley Henning Blake. This book talks about the main character's brother raping her best friend. Our main character, Mara, has to deal with a lot of grief and feelings surrounding the whole situation.   Fall is bac...
