July Book Wrap Up

Hello everyone it's Nicole Henderson here, and this is my July Book Wrap Up. This month was a good reading month for me, however it kind of ended on a not-so-good note. I read a total of 5 books this month which is not to bad considering I read more books last month. So now let's get into the books I read in the month of July.

The first book I finished in July was Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon. I initially started this in June but I managed to finish it this month, and I have to say it was a pretty good book. It made me realize that we take all the simple things we have for granted and that we should be grateful for what we do have and experience in life (like the ability to go outside). I really enjoyed this book and I'm looking forward to reading her next book coming out in November 2016. And I highly recommend this book to all of you. I rated it a 4/5 stars.

The second book I finished this month was Through to You by Lauren Barnholdt. When I started this book, I was in a pretty bad reading slump so this was a nice contemporary read to get me out of it. Anyways, I enjoyed this book for its cute romance, and how relatable it is to the teen demographic. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the main characters. They were both irritating and a little over-the-top at times. But other then that, this was a good book that I recommend for you guys. I rated it a 4/5 stars.

The third book I read this month was Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn't Have) by Sarah Mlynowski. This was another contemporary I read in order to balance out another book I was reading (which I did end up finishing this month), and this book was an okay read. It was still entertaining because of its simple concept, but it wasn't the best contemporary I've read. I gave this book a 3/5 stars.

The fourth book I read this month was Entwined by Heather Dixon. This was originally the first book I started this month but I didn't finish it until the end of the month basically. When I started this book I entered a huge reading slump and I had a hard time getting into the book as a result. But I pushed through and read it, and it was surprisingly an enjoyable read. It was one of the best fairytale retellings I have read in a long time and I recommend it to all of you. In case you guys didn't know, the retelling is of the Twelve Dancing Princesses. And I rated this a 4/5 stars.




The final book I read in the month of July, was The Best Night of Your (Pathetic) Life by Tara Altebrando. Since there was a full week left of this month, I thought I would start another book that would be a short/quick read. So, I obviously picked this one up. I expected this book to be great because of its interesting concept but i didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. This is mainly because of the main characters and how annoying and irritating they all were (especially Mary). The only person I liked out of all of them was Dez. Anyways, if you want something quick and light to read then give this book a chance. I rated this a 2/5 stars.



So that is pretty much it for my book wrap-up, I hoped you all enjoyed reading it. Let me know any of the books you've read this month in the comments below. I have full reviews on 4 out of the 5 books I read, so if you do wanna know more on my thoughts on those books then check them out. Until my next post goodbye for now.
