My Reading Week 05/08/19


One of the things I enjoy in this community is hearing about what people are reading and their in the moment thoughts. My favourite things to watch on Booktube are reading vlogs because of this so, I thought I would do my own version on my blog. 

Welcome to my reading week. In these posts I will be sharing with you all of the bookish things that happen to me over the week. What I've been reading, my thoughts and any book post I receive.

I enjoyed this one a bit more than the first, it definitely wasn't so graphic but it was still a bit gory in places. I still wish we knew more about The Kin but there were some plot twists that surprised me.

I'm enjoying Wonderland. All of the stories I've read so far are very different which I like. My favourite so far is Dream Alice, I liked the sci-fi elements in this one. 
The Sacrifice Box is very strange, the build up was quite slow but a whole lot of crazy happens all at once. It's not quite what I was expecting at the moment.

  11. I love these kinds of posts! I am definitely a curious person so I'm always like HELLO STRANGER WHAT ARE YOU ENJOYING THIS WEEK? You know? Haha.

    But, oh, The Sacrifice Box sounds pretty intriguing. My interest is piqued. It's always such a mixed bag when books aren't what we expect them to be but I hope you are enjoying it and the slowness/strangeness charms you in the end.
