Month in Review: November
November absolutely flew by and now I am officially in Christmas mode. I am happy the semester is almost over, but it will still be not exactly a holiday for me as I still have to work. *sigh.* Anyways, here's what happened in November!
What I Read:
Shatter Me by: Tahereh Mafi: 4/5 stars
Lies You Never Told Me by: Jennifer Donaldson: 3/5 stars
Look who got up to a lot of reading in November!!! *sobs.* Hopefully with Christmas rolling around, I will get to buy a lot more books and reading will be more a priority.
Favourite Book: I re-read Shatter Me because I first read it about two years ago and wanted to give it a second shot. It was really good, although I don't think it will be a series that I will obsess over.
What I Blogged:
My favourite blog post of the month was my Rant About my Creative Writing Course. It felt GREAT to get some things off my chest.
Favourite Blog Posts of the Month:
Cee asks that we Remember Them, Too
Veronika and Clare try to Beat the Backlist
Life Stuff:
Nothing major, just work and school. I have a lot of end of term essays to do, and it is evident that I am not doing as well as I did in first year. But alas, we will persevere and hopefully get through the term with semi-ok marks!
That was my November! How was yours?

Ughhh I had the same kind of reading month. I think I read a total of three books and wrote zero (yeah ZERO) blog posts (I'm basically running around like a headless chicken right now). Now that you mention it, I also really want to do a reread of the Shatter Me series! With the new installments coming out, I want to refresh on some of the built up relationships and histories before continuing. I hope you have a much better reading month in December, Emily!

I have completely lost track on how many Shatter Me books there currently are but I’m glad you enjoy the books nonetheless! Hope you can write some more!
DeleteI really liked Shatter Me when I read it a few years ago and never continued on in the series. I guess I should do that. Hope you have a good December.
ReplyDeleteI never continued with the series either! It’s just kinda: meh for me. Hope you have a good December as well :)
DeleteThanks for the shout-out Em!!! And yes, Christmas-time!!!!! XD
ReplyDeleteNo problem, Cee :D
DeleteHope December is a great month for you, despite all the work! Ugh it sucks you have to work, but sigh. Life is a pain sometimes. Haha. Hope all goes pretty smoothly, though!
ReplyDeleteI agree about Shatter Me. I mean, I like the series, but I'll never be someone who flails over it :)
Thanks Amy! Hope your December is great too :)
DeleteI still haven't read the Shatter Me series!! *sobs*
ReplyDeleteYou’re not missing much in my opinion, idk I’m on the fence about it.
