Shiver // Maggie Stiefvater
For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf—her wolf—is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without.
Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human… until the cold makes him shift back again.
Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human—or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.

I'm actually currently reading this one right now! I love Maggie's books, she's so creative and the plots always blow me away and her characters are always so lovable, I can't wait to see where this one goes.
Lady Midnight // Cassandra Clare
Emma Carstairs is a warrior, a Shadowhunter, and the best in her generation. She lives for battle. Shoulder to shoulder with her parabatai, Julian Blackthorn, she patrols the streets of Los Angeles, where vampires party on the Sunset Strip, and faeries—the most powerful of supernatural creatures—teeter on the edge of open war with Shadowhunters. When the bodies of humans and faeries turn up murdered in the same way Emma’s parents were when she was a child, an uneasy alliance is formed. This is Emma’s chance for revenge—and Julian’s chance to get back his brother Mark, who is being held prisoner by the faerie Courts. All Emma, Mark, and Julian have to do is solve the murders within two weeks…and before the murderer targets them.
Their search takes Emma from sea caves full of sorcery to a dark lottery where death is dispensed. And each clue she unravels uncovers more secrets. What has Julian been hiding from her all these years? Why does Shadowhunter Law forbid parabatai to fall in love? Who really killed her parents—and can she bear to know the truth?

I'm always a sucker for anything Cassandra Clare, and I really loved Julian's character in the City of Heavenly Fire. (Also Emma is a Carstairs.. enough said)
This book is 700 pages, aka one of the only reasons why my TBR is so short this month. *sigh*
Six of Crows // Leigh Bardugo
Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price—and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can't pull it off alone...
A convict with a thirst for revenge. A sharpshooter who can't walk away from a wager. A runaway with a privileged past. A spy known as the Wraith. A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums. A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes.
Kaz's crew are the only ones who might stand between the world and destruction—if they don't kill each other first.

I LOVED the first book in the Grisha series (I should get back to reading that..) And I've had this book on my shelves since April. AND I love Leigh Bardugo's writing style. So why not give this book a shot.
My TBR is so short this month *glares at Lady Midnight* but I don't even know if I'm going to get it done *glares at school and me last month for deciding to do blogtember* ahem. I'll try though!
What books are you planning to read this month? Are you a fan of any of these authors? Let me know!
Thanks for reading,
Noor
linkup for today :D
Ive heard a lot about Maggie Stiefvater but Ive never read any of her books. theres also a huge hype about Lady Midnight. I tried to read the Mortal Instruments at one point but the first book didnt sit well with me. *shrugs*
ReplyDeleteI hope you like them though :)
as for my tbr list...I have to read Macbeth for school, but Im also kinda feeling like I want to re-read Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell. Im just remembering how much I love that book
I really need to read some Maggie Stiefvater- I hear about her everywhere, but I haven't read any myself yet:) Adding to the tbr!
ReplyDeleteLady Midnight and Six of Crows are both amazing books, I love both of them. I hope you enjoy reading both of those.
ReplyDeleteI'm don't really know much about Shiver, I read the first book of the The Raven Cycle and liked it, but I wasn't able to get into the second book or any other of Stiefvater's writing.
These all look great! I'm planning on reading Six of Crows this month as well, I found a copy of it at my local thrift store ♥

These books all look really good!!!! I've never read any of them though. And what you said at the end about school-I feel you! Grrrrrr-school. What's the point of being taught how to read if we never have time to do it???
