Is there a series that disappointed you or that you really wanted to like but just didn't? For me, that's Caraval. • I LOVED the first book but thought the quality reduced with Legendary and Finale...it did enjoy it for the most part however in the end I just found it all a bit too predictable and trying too hard to be something it wasn't. I was left feeling very 'meh'. So, I'm mildly disappointed for all the potential this series had that I just don't think books two and three fulfilled. Excited to see what Stephanie Garber will write next but I think it's highly unlikely I will re-read the Caraval series again.
Can anyone recommend some YA Murder Mystery type novels you've enjoyed please?? Karen M. McManus has started me on a reading trend I am LOVING at the moment. • Yes, I'm back! I've had an unplanned hiatus due to a difficult final few weeks at uni, but I'm done moping and I'm back. Hopefully I can schedule all of my backdated blog posts and get back to some sort of bookstagram/book blogging normality. • In the past two months I've read all three books in the Caraval series by @stephanie_garber , One of Us is Lying and Two Can Keep a Secret by @writerkmc , Everything I Never Told You by @pronounced_ing , and a handful of Agatha Christie books. • Keep an eye out on my blog for reviews! I cannot wait to share my thoughts on these books with you all.
Happy April! As my dissertation and other uni essays are due at the end of this month/beginning of May, I'm combining my April and May TBR into just the Grisha series and Six of Crows Duology. • Trying not to give myself too many reasons to procrastinate 😂 • #books #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #allthebooks #booksforever #readstagram #bookishlife #bookcollector #literarylove #sixofcrows #crookedkingdom #shadowandbone #seigeandstorm #ruinandrising #leighbardugo #bookphotography #booklover #reader #bookworm #toberead
Last day at work for a few days 🎉 • This week I really want to try to write a review for The Priory of the Orange Tree which I finished reading at the end of February (!). I don't want to end up forgetting things and fall too far behind on my reviews. • #books #bookstagram #bookish #flatlay #cuppa #cupoftea #teadrinker #bookreader #booklover #prioryoftheorangetree #samanthashannon #fiction #mustread #bookrecommendations #fictionaddiction #booksbooksbooks #allthebooks #bookishlife #readersofinsta #bookpic #bookphotography #bookaesthetic

I'm obsessed with the hidden covers of the UK editions of Caraval. I have two of them: The top hat and the clock. • Do you have any special edition books or any #nakedbooks with a pretty design or a surprise under the dust jacket? • #hardbacks #caraval #stephaniegarber #specialeditionbook #hiddencover #coverdesign #itsonlyagame #books
Today is my last day of lessons at uni. Ever. Three years just gone. Poof. Cue the impending quarter life crisis of what the hell I'm supposed to do after I submit all my final essays in May 😂 • Anyone else graduating soon? • #books #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #allthebooks #booksonbooks #cuppa #cupoftea #teadrinker
Happy World Theatre Day! Today is a great day to be working in the theatre industry. • Double show day for me at work, which means I'll have to take some literature reinforcements! • Everyone tell me your favourite musical below 🥰👇 • #book #openbook #mug #cuppa #cupoftea

Happy Map Monday! • This weeks map is from @stephanie_garber 's Caraval, a series I am starting to re-read before the Finale (see what I did there 😉) is released in May. • #mapmonday #caraval #stephaniegarber #fiction #hardbacks #bookmap #hiddencover #ireadya #yabooks #fantasy #booksonbooks #bookworm #bibliophile #reading #toberead #bookphotography #bookaddict #booksbooksbooks #allthebooks #booksforever #readstagram #bookishlife #reread #itsonlyagame
Are you reading any series at the moment? • Last year I read the first step books in the Three Dark Crowns series by @kendareblake and loved them! Book three (Two Dark Reigns) is on my TBR and I hope to get to it soon. • If you've read this series, who is your favourite Queen? #teamarsinoe • #books #flatlay #bookpile #cupoftea #teadrinker #cuppa #bookaddict
