Last Sunday we had so much snow! I love it! Then the whole week it was freezing (which again I love!), which caused lots of drama on the roads haha.. Netherlands is not prepared for real winter weather!
What I read this week (books with * have a review coming!):
The Promised Neverland vol. 5 – Kaiu Shirai – 4 stars! I’m absolutely in love with this manga series, and for some reason I cannot buy the 6th volume anywhere..
A Winter’s Promise* – Christelle Dabos (audio) – 1 star! Really really disliked this one.. Wasn’t planning on reviewing this, but I needed to! It will come soon!
A Desolation Called Peace* – Arkady Martine – 3 stars! I enjoyed this one, but I preferred book 1!
What I’m currently reading:
The Black Prism – Brent Weeks – Started my buddy read for this this week. We’re reading around 40 pages, so it will take until the end of the month to finish this!
Stamped from the beginning – Ibram X Kendi (audio) – Over halfway through now! But taking another little break from it, I notice that if I listen to long to non-fiction my minds starts to wonder off..
The House in the Cerulean Sea – TJ Klune – I’m absolutely loving this one! I will finish it later today!
Labyrinth Lost – Zoraida Cordova (audio) – not far in, but really liking it so far!

None! I feel like I’m doing quite good on this not buying books, but then I realize lots of books are coming haha!..
What I watched:
Gilmore Girls – Season 1, episode 7 to 9
Wasn’t really in the mood to watch anything this week haha!
Glad you enjoy the snow! I’m kind over winter, myself, but that’s because I just dislike the cold and having to clean snow off my car LOL. Have a great week, Evelyn!
Haha I love the snow! And we don´t have it vry often here in the Netherlands!
Have a great week too!
Too bad about A Winter’s Promise — the advertising for it kept comparing it to Harry Potter, but I’ve seen mostly negative reviews from actual readers. Hope you have a great week!
I really don´t see how this compares to Harry Potter, like not even in the slightest..
Everyone keeps talking about A Winter’s Promise. Not really sure if I’ll be reading it anytime soon tbh. Really looking forward to The House in the Cerulean Sea! I’ve heard amazing things about it. Hope you have a fun reading week!
Well, since I gave it 1 star, I do not really recommend it haha!
The House in the Cerulean Sea is a new favourite, it was amazing!
I loved The House in the Cerulean Sea! I’m glad you are enjoying it too!
I have now finished it, and it is a new favourite of mine! So good!
I just bought the audiobook for The Black Prism (audible sale). Hoping to start it soon!
So far in loving it!
I’m picking up a desolation called peace next!! Looking forward to your review
I hope you will love it!
My husband has been watching The Promised Land! He has been enjoying it. Enjoy your reading!
Ooh I should watch it as well!
Enjoy your reading!
