Weekly Wrap Up #4

Posted on

I started watching K-drama because of some colleagues, and then I struggled finding a balance between watching and reading haha! 

Also I reorganised my shelves yesterday! Now it looks like this:

What I read this week (books with * have a review coming!):
Raybearer – Jordan Ifueko – 4.5 stars! Really enjoyed this one! Curious about the sequel, although I feel like there does not have to be one!
Fable* – Adrienne Young (audio) – DNF! Wasn’t really enjoying this one!
Wild Beauty – Anna-Marie McLemore – 3.5 stars! I loved the writing! I will definitely check out more from this author!
The Black Tides of Heaven – Neon Yang – 5 stars! Favourite read of the month! I loved this!

What I’m currently reading:
Stamped from the Beginning – Ibrahim X Kendi (audio) – Made a start on my February TBR, which is a good thing, since I do not want to rush through this one!
The Red Threads of Fortune – Neon Yang – Had to start this one immediately, will hopefully finish later today!

  4. Your shelves look amazing!
    Also, I totally understand the struggle of balancing Kdrama’s and reading haha. 🙂
    Hope you have a great week, Evelyn!

  6. Pretty shelves! There’s something so satisfying about reorgnizing books. 🙂 Have a great week!

  8. You’re shelves look amazing! It also looks like you read some awesome books this past week and are reading some good ones. I have been on the look out for Stamped from the Beginning at my bookstore. I hope it pops up soon.

  9. I love your bookshelves, they look so nice! I am surprised you weren’t enjoying Fable… I’ve not read it myself yet but a lot of people seem to be lately and most people seem to have really liked to and yours is the first dnf I’ve seen… was it the story or the narration that was the problem do you think? An audiobook can be so broken by a bad narrator!

    1. I was not hating it or anything, but I just didn’t feel compelled to pick it up.. And I knew there are other books out there that I would enjoy more!
      To me the book felt very generic?! So far it went exactly as I expected and the characters didn’t feel very special to me.But of course loads could have happened in the second half!
      (The narration of the audiobook was good!)

  10. Your bookshelves turned out great! I love the aesthetic and just generally the amount of fantasy on there 🙂 And I totally get your reading/watching dilemma!!

  11. Ooh k-dramas! What are you currently watching?

    This post reminds me that I need to read Red Threads of Fortune!

  12. What K dramas have you been watching? I can always recommend more if you want and and you can join me in the endless struggle to find a balance between reading and dramas

    1. So far only It´s Okay Not to be Okay, and really enjoying it! So if you know more like that, let me know! They told me Crash Landing on You, Healer, Busted, Suspicious Partner (mainly because these are on Netflix haha)

      1. There are so many on Netflix and I can recommend other places to watch, free and paid. Some of may faves are Heirs(sometimes called Inheritors), Cinderella and the Four Knights, Boys over Flowers and To the Beautiful You. I think all but the last one are on Netflix
