Hey guys its Ashley, and today we're
going to be doing my December wrap up and
January TBR. So I've actually been kind of
thinking, should I just do wrap-ups from
now on? When I first started this channel
and I did TBRs I would stick to them
consistently, but toward the end of the
year my TBRs had almost nothing to do
with the books that i was actually
reading in that month (if i was reading
any at all) so I'm trying to decide...
should I just stop doing TBRs and
just tell you guys what I read and what
I liked about the book and everything
like that, or should I keep doing like
these consistent TBR/wrap-ups combined
into one? So please let me know what your
preference is because i really don't care
either way as long as you guys are okay
with me giving a TBR and maybe not
sticking to it all the time? For
future reference, just let me know!
So anyway, December was a really good
reading month for me; i read three books. I
kicked no-book-November in the ass and
I actually completed my Goodreads
reading challenge of 30 books! I'm so so
happy to show you guys what I read and
talk about them with you so let's just
go ahead and get started! The first book
that I read in december and actually
finished finally was Magnus Chase
and the Hammer of Thor. This is book two
in the gods of asgard series and this
book was so good! I don't think that this
series is perhaps as great as the Heroes
of Olympus series or the Percy Jackson
series in general, it might just be that
I like those characters more. I really
really love what he's doing with the
story and i love how he's intertwining
the two stories and making everybody
come together and it's amazing, but I
have to say I probably prefer the percy
series more over the magnus series.
I still gave this book 5 stars though
because it was so funny and so so great!
I was extremely ecstatic about the end
and i will have a booktalk up for it
soon I promise! The next book that I read
was Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy
by Cassandra Clare and friends. This book
obviously got five stars from me,
everything by Cassandra Clare ends up
getting five stars. It isn't just because
it was written by Cassandra Clare that
it automatically gets five stars guys I
just really really love these books and
i love the story and the characters. If you
haven't read up to City of Heavenly
Fire, you don't want to hear this, so
mute until I put the book down! This book
is basically about Simon after the
events of City of Heavenly Fire when he
loses all his memories and he decides to
ascend to become a Shadowhunter
and it is just amazing and it's like 12
short stories filled with nothing but
him at the Shadowhunter Academy. Every
single chapter is either a flashback to
something that we know and love or
characters come in that we love: Izzy, Jace,
Clary, Helen blackthorn, Jules and
Emma... Tessa comes back in, we get a
flashback with Will and Jem and their
kids, we get James Herondale who's Will's
son! It's just amazing and i love this so
so much!
Oh my goodness, ok, I'm done, I'm done. The
final book that i read in December to
wrap up my reading challenge was the
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
original screenplay by JK Rowling. I
figured this book wouldn't take me that
long to read it's pretty short and it's
a screenplay so I could get through it
really fast just like I would a graphic
novel, and i did, and i finished it like a
couple days before december was over and
i was so happy! I definitely, definitely,
recommend this if you love to the movie
or want to know more about the movie,
it's so so good! So those are the three
books that i read in December, I'm really
happy with everything that i read and
i'm super excited for what I'm gonna get
into in my January TBR so let's just go
ahead. Out of these five books, i have
fully read one and i'm in the process of
reading 2 and the other 2 i haven't
started yet, but just keep that in mind.
Okay so the first book that I had
planned and have actually already
finished in january is A Court of
Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Maas. This
got five stars from me, it was so good, i'm
still counting in my TBR because i did
read it in January but it was so good
you guys. I know that everybody is so
hyped about the series and has been
raving about this series from the moment
it came out especially, ACOMAF not
just ACOTAR, but I still don't fully
understand the Rhys hype and the
Rhysand obsession that everybody seems to
have... it's probably because i haven't
gotten into ACOMAF yet, and once i will
i'm probably going to be complete Rhysand
trash, but I mean as of right now I
like Tamlin better from this book at
least so I'm really interested to see
how everything changes in the second
book. The next book that I'm planning on
reading and i'm currently in the process
of reading actually is Wayfarer by
Alexandra Bracken. It's not one that i had
actually planned on reading previously
before this video but as soon as I
picked
it up at barnes and noble and put it in
my hands I was like there's no way you
are not going to read this this month
you've been waiting for it for over six
months now so you're gonna pick it up
and you're gonna finish the duology and
so I'm about 150 pages in right now and it
is really really good and I'm so happy I
picked it up and I should be done with
it soon. So the next book that I have
plans to read that I have not actually
start yet is Of Fire and Stars by Audrey
Colthurst. This was the december owlcrate
book box of the box, you know what
i mean. i received it in the December owlcrate
is what i'm trying to say. i'm so
excited to get into this book it sounds
so amazing. it's basically about like a
bisexual main character i think in this
fantasy kingdom and I am so excited so
excited. And the next book that I want to
read this month that i haven't actually
started yet is The Sun is Also a Star by
Nicola Yoon. So many people have been
raving about this book and I cannot wait
to jump into it hits some hard points
that we need to be talking about and the
story is just something so interesting and
i have yet to read a contemporary book
since I started this channel so i figure
its the new year
I should probably start now. The most
that I've heard about this book is that
it is about a main character whose
family is about to be deported to
jamaica and she falls in love with a
boy, i'm assuming, or she meets a boy and
everything just happens after that and
it sounds really interesting and it's
been getting a lot of good reviews and I
cannot wait to get into it! And so the
final book that I'm actually reading
this month i have already started,
no surprise, is actually City of
Bones by Cassandra Clare. This is book
one in the mortal instruments series. if
you're watching my channel and you don't
know that, where have you been? i have six
copies of this book, this one single
book, and I decided to hold up the most
battered, broken spine book I have. Go figure.
like i said in my reading resolutions
video i really want to make an effort to
try to reread the series this year
actually tried starting to read this
book this year on audiobook and I
realized about a hundred and fifty pages
into the book that audio books are just
not for me. I get really bad
headaches when I'm listening to
audiobooks and I don't want to just sit
there and listen to somebody reading the
book so i'm just gonna go ahead
just physically read them again which
i'm so excited about! There's one other
thing I wanted to mention / announced
with this book. Amber over at readinginfinitely
and i'll leave her channel
and the rest of these people that i'm
going to mention down below
she actually started a group chat on
twitter with a bunch of different people
and asked if we wanted to do like a
Mortal Instruments read along with like
possible live shows occasionally either
every month or every two months or
something like that and i immediately
said hell yeah I'm in so i'm going to be
a part of that. I have no idea what we're
doing it's a pretty casual thing there's
no like YouTube page or twitter page
revolved around it there's probably not
going to be any sprints
the goal is just one book a month in the
series in publication order so that
includes the Infernal Devices. I'll just give
you more information as the time goes on.
read it at your own pace, if you don't
finish it within the month
it's no big deal, nobody's going to
penalize you for it. So I mean if any of
you want to join us
just let me know because I'm really
interested to see how many people want
to actually read the series with us! i'll
leave all the people that I know were
in the group chat down below if you
wanted to see if they had posted
anything? i know that a couple people
said they were going to include a little
announcement in their TBR video which is
what i'm doing now,
so if you want to go check that out you
can and i'll give you more information
when I have it. so that's actually going
to be everything for my December wrap up
and January TBR... for two months this is
this is a lot of books and I'm pretty
psyched! i am so excited to be getting
into books that I honestly haven't been
expecting to read, but suddenly just decided
to pick up you know? I recently have
gained a whole bunch more subscribers
