January Reads✨

I read so many books (for me) last month!!

• Belladonna ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I started this in December but didn’t finish it until January!

• The Inheritance Games⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I liked this book way more then I thought I would

• A Court of Thorns and Roses⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Loved it!! & that’s all I’m gonna say about that!

• The Hawthorn Legacy ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Still good, but the 1st one was better!

• The Final Gambit ⭐️⭐️⭐️

felt very repetitive/ lots of filler / beating around the bush

Im currently reading A Court of Mist and Fury and I’m absolutely loving it, but I have significantly less time to read this month😭 I’m hoping to finish it this weekend though!!
