I have recently been in a reading slump. School is literally draining me of all other desires besides sleep and food. Nevertheless, I have somehow managed to read a bit... I recently finished:
A Separate Peace by John Knowles
One of the most tragic books I have ever read. Literally laid on bed crying over. Its a classic and I have already written a small something about it. (You can find that below or click here)
I am also in the process of reading a few different books. For Example...
#Scandal by Sarah Ockler
I have actually been wanting to read this for a while and our school library finally got it! I am almost done and will probably pull a late-nighter to finish it tonight. It's Romance, of course. I don't really read anything other than that. But there is also a mystery sort of vibe going on as well as high school vibe. In my opinion, most books don't portray highschoolers and the atmosphere accurately but I could truly relate some of the characters to myself or people that I know. Great read and another score for Mrs. Ockler! (I also ordered her book, The Summer of Chasing Mermaids and can't wait to get that in the mail and start reading it!
The Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard
Unfortunately, my copy of this sequel is not signed like its predecessor. I know, I know... tears. Victoria is awesome. But I am in the middle of this book and just can not move on. Like, I want to, but the story is just so slow. And I feel so dedicated to the Red Queen Series that I feel like a traitor for not finishing yet. It has been well over two months since I started. Girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do and I WILL FINISH IT! I AM A STRONG INDEPENDENT WOMAN AND I CAN DO THIS! But one of my friends (Who reads ahead and almost every book she reads), has already partially let slip what happens at the end so I am sorta happy and feel even more obligated to finish. GAH, Laken. Now you have to go read. Well bye Lovelies! I guess I am going to go drool over Prince Calore for a few hours as I finish this dang book!
