The Last Star (The 5th Wave #3) By: Rick Yancey Published: May 24, 2016 by G.P. Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers 339 pages Source: Personal Kindle Library ( Goodreads / Amazon ) Summary: The heart-stopping finale to the  New York Times  bestselling 5th Wave series, just in time for the major motion picture release. We’re here, then we’re gone, and that was true before they came. That’s always been true. The Others didn’t invent death; they just perfected it. Gave death a face to put back in our face, because they knew that was the only way to crush us. It won’t end on any continent or ocean, no mountain or plain, jungle or desert. It will end where it began, where it had been from the beginning, on the battlefield of the last beating human heart. Master storyteller Rick Yancey invokes triumph, loss, and unrelenting action as the fate of the planet is decided in the conclusion to this epic series. MY REVIEW: I've been putting off reading this. Had it ...

The first of those weeks I just was super busy and forgot to type up a post. Then the next week I was on vacation in St Augustine, Florida. Now I'm back and surprisingly still don't have any new books. I'm on a roll! No new books for me since June 5th. Unfortunately I haven't exactly read a lot during that time either though. I have a few preordered over the next few months that I'm excited about. In non book related news I celebrated my 37th birthday this weeke...

And I Darken (The Conqueror's Saga #1) By: Kiersten White Published: June 28, 2016 by Delacorte Press 498 pages Source: Netgalley ARC from publisher ( Goodreads / Amazon ) Summary: This vividly rendered novel reads like HBO’s  Game of Thrones  . . . if it were set in the Ottoman Empire. Ambitious in scope and intimate in execution, the story’s atmospheric setting is rife with political intrigue, with a deftly plotted narrative driven by fiercely passionate characters. Fans of Victoria Aveyard’s THE RED QUEEN, Kristin Cashore’s GRACELING, and Sabaa Tahir’s AN EMBER IN THE ASHES won’t want to miss this visceral, immersive, and mesmerizing novel, the first in a trilogy. NO ONE EXPECTS A PRINCESS TO BE BRUTAL. And Lada Dragwlya likes it that way. Ever since she and her gentle younger brother, Radu, were wrenched from their homeland of Wallachia and abandoned by their father to be raised in the Ottoman courts, Lada has known that being ruthless is the key to su...
