Finally, we are in October! The best month of the year. Do you want to know why? No.1: Autumn. The greatest season of all. No.2: It’s my birth month, and everyone loves their birth month, especially since it means gifts – I already have books that I’m giving to myself on the way. No.3: It’s when I started my blog and also these monthly wrap-ups (changes coming next month!). No, I’m not going to say Halloween not because I don’t like it, instead because it’s not celebrated in Portugal the same way it’s celebrated in other countries. Although, I’m still planning on reading some spooky books – I might not do Halloween, but I’m not a monster. Before I continue to talk about my passion for October, I need to tell you all about the books from September. Wrap-Up When I think about September, I think I had a pretty good month. I wanted to read all the time, was in the best mood, no reading slumps, but then I really thought about what I actually read, and then I realised it was just okay. I read two books, and I still need to finish another. Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs, the third book in the Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children series, was a long stretch to finish at the beginning of the month. I may write a post more in detail about the whole series, but summing up, I didn’t want to actually read the rest of the series so it was a bit boring. I skimmed a few parts of it to move the story along and get over it as quickly as I could. And I finally can say I’ve read the entire series – no I’m not counting the upcoming books nor will I read them. Then I started reading Welcome to Rosie Hopkins’ Sweet Shop of Dreams by Jenny Colgan, and I have yet to finish it. The pacing is slow for at least half of the book which is taking me more time then I was expecting to. In between, I read Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia as a breeze. In three days, I was done with it. I loved it and… hated it. I know it doesn’t make any sense, but I’ll talk about it in another post – my goodness, I have a lot of posts to write....
