Today I want to share with you some things that really irk my nerves when reading. Some things just get to me in a book, and here are some examples: Not having chapter numbers - I don’t really have a valid explanation as to why this gets to me, but it does. Sometimes I get motivation to finish a book by calculating how many chapters I have left based on how many chapters there are total. I CAN’T DO THAT WITHOUT CHAPTER NUMBERS!! Not naming the POV’s- If your book has multiple points of view… PLEASE LABEL THEM. I hate having to figure out whose chapters I’m reading. If you don’t make it insanely obvious, please assume I don’t know who is who, okay? Dog-eared pages- This one is pretty self-explanitory. I like to keep my books very pristine and in tip-top shape, so don’t go around messing up the corners of my pages. Unless you want a very angry Madi Monster on your hands 😊 . Bent paperback covers- Most of the time after I read a paperback, ...
So, I decided to tell you guys a little bit about myself through book related stuff, so you can get to know me a little better. So, let’s just jump right in! I would really love to be in Dauntless but I’m probably more Erudite. (Divergent by Veronica Roth) I’m a SLYTHERIN!!! Yeah! My patronus is a white swan I always have at least two books on me at all times I will read anywhere and everywhere (No joke) I usually like to get all my reading done during the day, I’m not a huge night owl (Unless it comes to a read-a-thon, then I never sleep) The first booktuber I ever watched was Katytastic I’m not quite sure which book or series got me into reading, but I know I love it now! ...
Goodreads Summary *NO SPOILERS* I don’t know if I have ever told you this, but re-tellings of fairy-tales and classics are some of my favorite reads. What makes this book even better is that it is a Peter Pan re-telling! Although it is from Hook’s point of view, this book is still extremely intriguing. I always love tales from the supposed “villain” and this is a darker tale than the original. I really liked this book but if I were to change anything, it would be that we got to read more about Jamie with the pirates. This story focuses more on the relationship Jamie and Peter had as kids, and how Jamie came to hate Peter, and then eventually became Hook. I felt like there could have been a little more of the grown-up pirate and not the lost boy in Peter’s band of wildlings. I liked this view of my favorite fairy-tale, and was glad the author kept most of the things from the original story. She also added some new elements that made this book completely her own. So,...
