Weekly Wrap Up: 26/04-02/05

Welcome to my weekly wrap up where I share my reading progress and week in general!

My Week

One month to go until exams and college is over! It’s been a rough week revising for exams and I’m feeling the pressure, but we’ve just got to keep going and push for the next 4 weeks. I haven’t done much else except slowly continue with Shadow and Bone– normally I binge TV shows otherwise I never finish them, but I really want to make it last for as long as I can to get me through May!

This week, I shared my hopeful May TBR, which I had a little head start on because I started a few books from my TBR early this week! Next week, I’ve got my April Wrap Up lined up.

My Week in Books

I finished Siege and Storm at the start of the week and I ended up giving it 3.5 stars. I think I was much more invested in the story because of the TV series, but this book felt like the typical filler 2nd book in a trilogy. I did enjoy the characters and their relationships but did Alina really need 3 potential love interests??

I was tempted to immediately read Ruin and Rising but I gave myself a break from the Grishaverse and started my ARC of Sorrowland. I didn’t know anything going into the book, only that I wanted to try the author’s books, and I actually recommend doing that. It took me a while to get into the story but I love the direction it’s going in. Hopefully I can write a full review when I finish!

Next I started Fence Vol 3. I feel like there could be many many volumes of this graphic novel because honestly not a lot has happened when you step back from the story. However, it’s very engaging and I’m learning lots about fencing as well as getting to know the characters more!
