Wishlist Wednesday…ghosts and reincarnation…..

I can’t remember where I saw this post so I’m sorry if I haven’t credited you (let me know and I’ll add on!!)

I saw a post for Wishlist Wednesday and it had books that were coming up in the next month but I decided to change this up a bit for me.

In July I’ll be showing books that are on my Amazon wishlist. The books I’ve added on but haven’t got round to buying yet….I don’t why though!!!

 

Penmort Castle (Ghosts and Reincarnations #3) by Kristen Ashley

I read the first book in this series, Sommersgate House last year and loved it!  I automatically brought book 2 (which is still on my tbr) and wish listed the rest of the series.

Have you read this?

Top 5 Tuesday: U to Z…the hardest of all of them!

Top 5 Tuesday is brought to you by Shanah at the Bionic Bookworm – you can find her July topic post here.

The July Theme…….

The themed topics in July are books that start with a letter of the alphabet that I’ve read!!! I’ve gone through all my books I’ve read and tried to find some books that maybe I dont choose for these types of challenges/tags typically…….so……

U to Z


Until November by Aurora Rose Reynolds

The start of what only can be described as the best series ever….with added BOOM!



Verum by Courtney Cole

This series twisted my melon and I was so addictive!


 

Winter by Marissa Meyer

Need I say anymore? Cress was my utter fave but this comes in a close second!


 

Xavier Cold by Michelle Valentine

Ok I admit to grasping at straws here. I read Phenomenal X and loved it….and I know I read this, but I cant actually remember it. Maybe I need a reread!


 

Yumi by Renee Ahdieh

Dont you just love little tidbits of the book worlds you love? This was that! A little snack!


 

Zenith by Amity Cross

This was book 3 in a modern day historical romance (I know I was like whaaaaat?) But I loved it! Full of deceit and treachery!


Have you read any of these?

Stacking the Shelves: July

Stacking The Shelves is hosted at Tynga’s Reviews & Reading Reality. It’s all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!

I hate to say it but I was almost controlled this month, 4 books only! I don’t for one minute think that I’m turning over a new leaf though 😂😂


An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

I’ve actually already read this and I got it as the blurb intrigued me and it was on sale. It was utterly fabulous!

The Evil Queen Gena Showalter

I don’t know why I bought this! Maybe sucked in by the blurb, but hey ho, its mine to read now!!!


Wilder Girls by Rory Power

The minute I saw this I knew I wanted to get it and I save for Halloween for my spooky reads!!!

Wicked Fox by Kat Cho

I got this from a book box (named withheld as to not spoil for others!) I have seen some glowing reports on this so need to read it soon.

What books did you get this month?

Beach, swimming and reading…..my week!

Welcome to The Weekly Epilogue!

Hope you all had a good week?

I had a lovely week at the beach, it was so hot that it was a week of lazing about, diving in the sea/pool and READING!!!! I was disappointed that I had to come home to normality!

My apologies as I didnt get a chance to blog hop, read posts or hardly reply to any comments mainly due to the fact that there was no signal!!!


For my holiday reads I decided I wanted rereads and the Rock Chicks came to mind……

P to T

Paper Princess by Erin Watt

I read this many moons ago and I was infatuated! Sadly I didnt really like the rest of the series 😭


 

Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas

Oh come on, I had to sneak a Maas book in here somewhere…and what better than this belter!


 

Rock Chick by Kristen Ashley

This series is just everything. Everything I tell you! And so fun! It is my (imagined!) soundtrack to my life!


 

Sweetwater by Rivi Jacks

You know when you pick up a book that someone has recommended and you really dont know if it’s your cup of tea? Well I was like this with this book. I was literally obsessed with it and stalled the author for months looking for a release date for book 2!!!


 

Transcendence by Shay Savage

A caveman romance? Say whaaaaat? But this was it. And I’m not ashamed to say that it was such a great read, and just so unimaginably sweet!

Review: Lies by Kylie Scott

I literally love this author and I am honoured to be on her review team. This book is a different step for the author but still filled with the great humour I’ve come to expect!

Title: Lies

Author: Kylie Scott

Betty Dawsey knows that breaking things off with Thom Lange is for the best. He’s nice, but boring, and their relationship has lost its spark. But steady and predictable Thom, suddenly doesn’t seem so steady and predictable when their condo explodes and she’s kidnapped by a couple of crazies claiming that Thom isn’t who he says he is.

Thom is having a hellish week. Not only is he hunting a double agent, but his fiancé dumped him, and thanks to his undercover life, she’s been kidnapped.

Turns out Thom is Operative Thom and he’s got more than a few secrets to share with Betty if he’s going to keep her alive. With both their lives on the line, their lackluster connection is suddenly replaced by an intense one. But in his line of work, feelings aren’t wanted or desired. Because feelings can be a lethal distraction.

‘It turns out that being in a relationship with the wrong person can be even lonelier.’

Never a truer word spoken Betty, I thought to myself when she finds herself with a fiancee who is basically emotionally detached……..and then her world explodes….literally……
This was such a fun read! A lot of action, drama, secrets and an epic flop of a relationship that does a quick 360!
Betty is hilarious and it was great seeing confident (almost robotic!) Thom struggle with his emotions! But I loved him……
‘I don’t think anyone’s undressed me since I was a child.
I undress you constantly in my mind, if that counts.’

Holidays, books and migraines!!!!

Welcome to The Weekly Epilogue!

Hope you all had a good week?

I’M GOING ON HOLIDAY TOMORROW!

I cannot wait, swimming, fun, excitement and just a different setting (unforts no rest as I have kids!)

You will have to forgive me for my short update this week but I’m on day 3 of a horrible migraine which I am hoping goes before tomorrow as I’m the driver!

Also forgive me if I’m not that active this week as there is no wifi or signal where we are going so I’ll need to catch up when I get back! Have a great week everyone!


An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir


You know when a book you have read is calling you for a reread? Well this series is doing that to me so I’m starting on book 2 (didn’t fancy the first one!!)
