“You do not follow me because I am the strongest. Pax is. You do not follow me because I am the brightest. Mustang is. You follow me because you do not know where you are going. I do.”
Red Rising by Pierce Brown. I have been hearing about this book for ages and it has some amazing reviews on Goodreads so I finally picked it up from my local library. I’m only on page 80 but I already feel hooked. Brown’s writing style makes the story vivid and the characters relatable. The world building is flowing as well for me but hopefully that will change as the story progresses.
What did you recently finish reading?
Following a bloody battle against foes on every side, Paige Mahoney has risen to the dangerous position of Underqueen, ruling over London’s criminal population. –from Goodreads
The Song Rising by Samantha Shannon. I had been waiting for this book, the third in Shannon’s Bone Season series, to be released for two years. When I finally got to read it I was not disappointed. This third book is easily the best of the series so far and I cannot wait to for her write more. It feels like waiting for the Harry Potter books to come out all over again. What a good feeling.
What do you think you’ll read next?
Adrienne doesn’t believe in ghosts, but it’s hard to ignore the unease that grows as she explores her new home. Strange messages have been etched into the wallpaper, an old grave is hidden in the forest behind the house, and eerie portraits in the upstairs hall seem to watch her every movement. – from Goodreads
The Haunting of Ashburn House by Darcy Coates. I have been wanting to read this one for a while but haven’t been able to get my hands on it. Can’t find it at libraries and even Amazon doesn’t have it currently available as a purchase. You know what? That just makes me want it more. I need a good horror/thriller read.
What books have had your interest recently? Happy reading, everyone!
My husband read Red Rising and was hooked, too! He had us but the second one from the store last week haha. Happy reading and thanks for participating in WWW Wednesday!

Waiting for Harry Potter? That is a good feeling! I haven’t read Red Rising, either. I saw Pierce a couple years ago at Texas Teen Book Festival and he was hilarious! I hope you’re able to get your hands on a copy of The Haunting of Ashburn House.

Glad to hear you enjoyed The Song Rising! The Bone Season is my all time favorite and that book ended up being so worth the two year wait. Definitely like waiting for HP. Now we just need the next four books asap! 😂

Really do. I love the story Shannon is writing. Can’t wait to see what happens with everyone. Feel like something fishy is up Jaxon’s sleeve and I NEED TO KNOW what he it is.

Me too, her writing is incredible! Oh there definitely has to be something up Jaxon’s sleeve. And knowing him it’s going to be very bad for Paige. I need to know too.
