I didn’t read as much as I wanted this month, I think thats because of work and the start of another reading slump. I just didn’t feel the urge to pick up a book a to read. Its not because of the books, because all the books I read this month were such great reads. I am hoping that next month I manage to read a few more books because I didn’t get to read all the books I wanted too this month. I am happy with the books I did manage to get read because they were all brilliant reads.
The books I did manage to read in October were-
Wonder Woman- Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo
A really interesting take on the Wonder Woman character and a story that could easily be shown on the big screen. Cant wait to read more of these origin stories.
Review coming soon
I rated this book 4/5 stars
The Warrior in the Mist by Ruth Eastham
A fun children’s book that I managed to read in just one sitting. It hit on some really interesting and important points, which I really enjoyed reading about.

Turtles All The Way Down by John Green
I have been wanting to read this book for a while now, and in some ways this book was worth the wait, but I think my expectations were a little too high.

The Bloodprint by Ausma Zehanat Khan

Warcross by Marie Lu
My first Marie Lu book and I found it an exciting and engaging book with a plot that will leave you on the edge of your seat, and leave you wanting the next book in the series.

The Book of Dust by Philip Pullman
An epic new instalment to the His Dark Materials. I loved every minute reading this and cannot wait to read the next book.

Book of the Month
It was hard choosing my favourite book this month because all the books I managed to read were at least four star reads. But I decided to go with The Book of Dust by Philip Pullman. I chose this book because I absolutely loved this book from the very start. The His Dark Materials series is one of my favourite book series, and I was so excited to start reading this new instalment. Everything from the writing, the story and the characters, make this book an fantastic read that everyone will love to read. If you have not started this series yet, I would highly suggest you go out and buy all three books, you will not regret it.
