Yayy! It’s almost Halloween and if you have seen my post you’ll know that I love Halloween, I might be my favourite holiday. The best part of Halloween is costumes and that’s what this post is all about, basically you have to let me know of some characters that you would like to dress up as.

 

  1. NEWT SCAMANDER

Newt-Meeting-Harry-1200x675

I love Newt Scamander he is adorable and he’s my favourite character in Fantastic Beast, I think being newt is a super cool costume, its kinda hard to pull off (because of the coat) but an awesome costume. it’s a bit harder to do 

 

 

2. KELL MARESH

I feel like this could be pretty simple, I put this on here because I love his coat, I mean wouldn’t be awesome that you had 1 coat the could book like 100? You would most probably need red hair which I don’t have  but you could just get a wig.

 

 

 

 

3. KATNISS EVERDEEN

Hunger-Games-Movie-Katniss-Everdeen-Jacket-1-450x600

This is a pretty easy costume, you just wear leather and a black shirt/pants, of course the hard part of this costume is the bow but you could most probably find one at a Halloween store, and of course you can’t forget the classic mocking jay pin.

 

 

 

 

 

Well I can’t think of any other ones so that’s all for today,

Do you dress up for Halloween?

What are you’re favourite bookish costumes?

Happy Reading

September Wrap Up

bookworms20192 Comments

Hey guys I’m back for my September wrap up. This month passed by super quick I started my blog a month ago. ALSO October = Fall = Halloween. I love Halloween and fall. Anyway back to the wrap up I didn’t read that many books as I usually do because school started and its killing me on the inside. But I did read quite a few ebooks

 

BOOKS

  1. Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell

download (15)

4🌟🌟 🌟🌟

This was my second Rainbow Rowell book, I read Fangirl and fell in love with her writing. A friend has also recommended Eleanor and Park so I decided to pick it up and I was blown away, I loved this book .The ending had me shook, the romance wasnt my fave but still you don’t have to love it to enjoy this book.

 

 

2.  The Last of August by Brittany Cavallaro

30256105

 

3 🌟🌟🌟

This is the second book in the Study in Charlotte series. I read the first book in the series a while ago and I  really enjoyed it, sadly I didn’t enjoy the second book as much. I listened to this book instead of reading it and I think that’s why I didnt enjoy it as much. I’ll probably read the third one instead of listening to it.

 

 

3. The Loneliest Girl in the Universe by Lauren James

31lkOrVZAPL._SX329_BO1,204,203,200_

4.5🌟 🌟🌟🌟

This book is totally not what I expected. I completely blew me away, It’s a science fiction book set in space but It’s not like any other science book I’ve ever read, I don’t even think you have to like science-fiction to enjoy this book. As I’ve said this before I’m being super vague but I don’t want to spoil anything. But i totally recommend.

 

 

4. Letters to the Lost by Brigid Kemmerer

download (16)

5🌟🌟 🌟🌟🌟

I Loved this book, It was so sad and such a beautiful contemporary. I love the friendship in this book and how it didn’t feature romance as the main theme, I find this book expresses grief so clearly and realistically. You guys should check it out on goodreads

 

 

 

5 The Wicker King by K. Ancrum

 

61URfCNsYTL._SX331_BO1,204,203,200_

5 🌟🌟 🌟🌟🌟

This book crushed my heart. I love the mentle heath rep in this book.  The romance in this book melted my heart. It was such an emotional book that just hits you so hard. I don’t know how else to explain it, but I’m totally gonna reread it.

 

 

 

6. What if its us by Becky Allbertalli and Adam Silvera

download (14)

4.8🌟 🌟🌟🌟

I already wrote a review for this book so you can go check that out if you wanna see it. This was one of my most anticipated releases and It was worth the wait, I did think that it was a bit two predictable but I still really liked it.

 

 

 

7. The Last Wish of Sasha Cade

34802290

3.5 🌟🌟🌟

So I have a lot of mixed feelings for this book, I was sent a e-copy of this on NetGalley.  I liked the book overral but I didn’t really  enjoy the romance I felt that it was force and too much of insta-love for me.

 

 

 

8. Turtles All the Way Down by John Green

download (17)

5 🌟🌟 🌟🌟🌟

I havent technically finished this book I have about 60 pages left but I’m probably gonna finish it tonight so I’m gonna put it in my wrap up anyway. I am loving this book I love the mentle health side of this book, I wasnt the hugest fan of John Greens other books but I’m really loving this one. I’ll probably put up a review when I’m done.

 

 

Well that’s it for Books I’m gonna do a little wrap up of all the movies I’ve loved before.

MOVIES

  1. Fantastic Beast

I rewatched fantastic beast earlier this month and  re-fell in love with it. I love Newt Scamander he is one of my favourite characters from the Wizarding World universe. I am so excited for Crimes of Grindelwald I cannot wait till Nov. 16th.

2. Infinity Wars

I re-watched Infinity wars cause I was in the mood, I am also a huge Marvel fan and well the movie made my laugh and cry at the same time

3. The Hunger Games

OH MY GOD…So I rewatched the hunger games because I was in the mood for a book to movie adaptation so I decided to re-watch it and I am now again Hunger Game TRASH I forgot how much I loved the movie. I love Peeta in the movie (FIGHT ME) ok so one of my best friends hates Peeta so we had a very long debate over who was better Peeta or Gale I think Peeta what do you think??

4. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part Two

This movie crushed me as it did the fist few times I watched it. Honest I love the “Always” scene always hits me hard. It was an emotional experience and I was so happy to be back in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

Well that is my september wrap up. What did you guys read/watch this month let me know in the comments.

Happy Reading

Review: What If Its Us

bookworms20191 Comment

Hey guys so today im gonna be doing a review of what if its us by  Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera. I was giving an e-ARC of this book on Edelweiss.

WHAT IF ITS US-by BECKY ALBERTALLI and ADAM SILVERA

 

download (14).jpeg

Before I get into it, I just wanted to talk a little bit about the authors. I read They Both Die In the End last year and loved it (4/5). The only reason i didnt give it 5/5 was because there were two many POVs and it dragged on abit. but other than that I love his writing. I read Simon vrs The Homo Sapiens Agenda and Leah on the offbeat. earlier this year and LOVED them Simon-(5/5) and Leah-(4/5) I fell in love  with becky’s writing and all her HP refences. So yeah before I get off topic, This was of my most anticipated releases because I love both authors.

 

 What If Its Us – 4🌟

This book was super adorable. Its everything you expect it to be. Knowing Adam Silvera I was super scared that it would crush my heart in am million pieces, but it only shattered in half so it’s not that bad. I loved all the Harry Potter refencees ad DEH and Hamilton references. (I get so excited when books have references lol)

I loved the romance between Ben and Arthur (two main protagonist).  I felt that Adam’s and Becky’s writing styles just worked so well together. Also can we talked about that DIVERSITY. I love when books include LGBTQ+ or DIVERSITY (which this book has). Arthur was jewish and had ADHD, and Ben was Puerto Rican and also was not-rich. Sometimes I have noticed that in books everyone is high-middle class (!!THIS IS NOT EVERY BOOK, JUST A FEW THAT I HAVE NOTICED) and its fine cause authors write what they know , but I was very happy see that. In summary this book was super cute.

DISLIKES: I did give this book a 4/5🌟 so I’m just gonna say why.

I felt that this book was a bit predictable. So yes it was a love story but I think that from the begging you could already tell how it ended. It did you keep always on your toes and didn’t necessarily have moments that it dragged on. But if you’re a reader that doesn’t like predictable books than this one is a bit but its still awesome.

I didn’t like the ending. Ok so yes Adam Silvera co-wrote this book so there is no happy ending. But I felt that the ending was heart-breaking but in a good way. but then the epilogue ruined it….I felt that the ending was like “the end of an era” type ending and the epilogue just like started a new era even though there isn’t a 2nd book. Anyway I’m very bad at explaining it so just read it and you’ll hopefully get what I’m saying.

CHARACTERS: I’m just gonna talk about the characters real quick

I love arthur. Arthur is my precious no-chill cinnamon roll. I love how he is obseesed with Hamilton and how nerdy he is. He was so real-like, lol im horrible at this. Honestly he just reminds me so much of me. I have zero chill and he was just so adorable.

Ben: He wasn’t my fav but still I love how the they both nerds. Ill leave it to that cause I don’t want too spoil.

I also really liked Ben friends they were hilarious.

Well that concludes my review and thank you for sticking with me. I think in the end I give it a 4.5🌟

-Happy Reading

I love this book its a great mystery/thriller.

It was founded by Albert Ellingham, he wanted to make a wonderful place full of riddles, twisting pathways, and gardens. “A place where learning is a game.” Shortly after the school opened, his wife and daughter were kidnapped. The only real clue was a mocking riddle listing methods of murder, signed with the pseudonym, Truly Devious. It became one of the great unsolved crimes of American history. True-crime aficionado Stevie Bell is set to begin her first year at Ellingham Academy, and she has an ambitious plan: She will solve this cold case. But something strange is happening.
