It’s Sunday night which means my Spring Break has come to an end! 🌸 The only books I’ll be cracking open now are my textbooks. 😢 (JK college textbooks are a scam)
This past week was my university’s spring break, so I flew back home to Los Angeles where it was raining #salty. 🌧️ Since I had an excuse to stay indoors, I binged SO MANY BOOKS. In the end, I read a total of *drumroll* 7 books! 🎉 I finished the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Mass and Just Listen by Sarah Dessen.
The Throne of Glass series was absolutely amazing. 11/10 would recommend. 🌟 The first two books are good, but once you hit Book 3 (Heir of Fire) things get insane in the best way possible. I’m currently in my book mourning phase after finishing Book 5 (Empire of Storms), so check out my Tumblr for all the latest TOG memes. Just Listen by Sarah Dessen was the perfect short and sweet contemporary book I needed in between the Throne of Glass madness/darkness. 💕 Book reviews and discussions to come. 👀
I also watched Love, Simon! My friends and I bought Oreos to eat during the movie. We also got the mini cup Oreos and milk (almond milk though) to eat like Simon and his friends did in the book.
How has your week been? Did you get any reading done? Let me know in the comments! 💕
Well done! I can’t believe you finished that whole series. I am impressed!
I wish I had bought oreos for Love, Simon. That movie was amazing!

Just saying girl, don’t mourn the series just yet. It’s not finished haha in case you didn’t know. There’s Tower of Dawn which follows Chaol and cmae out last year. It was originally a novella but got turned into well…a full length book. But I still count it as a novella because of how the UK editions are colour coded. Assassins Blade was blue, the other books in the series are white and Tower of Dawn is also blue. So I count it as a novella still. BUT on goodreads it does come up as book 6 in the series. And then there’s book 7 to come out still. It says it’s due to come out this year in October soooo. I’ll leave the goodreads link to it below for you 🙂 But congrats on getting so much reading done and I also love Sarah Dessen’s books

(BTW I’ve only read until ToG #3, but I agree that the books get better–book 1 was such a snoozefest for me, then the next 2 were really good.)
