October Wrap Up - FTM



The first book I read this month was The Maze Runner by: James Dashner. I would rate it a 3.8 out of 5 stars. I also read the rest of the trilogy. 


The second book I read this month was The Last Sacrifice by: Richelle Mead. I already knew Lissa was going to become queen and I also knew that Rose and Adrian were going to break up. Now I can go onto Bloodlines now because you know.... Adrian. 4.5 out of 5 stars.




The third book I read this month was Shatter Me by: Tahereh Mafi. I quite enjoyed this book and I would rate it a 4 out of 5 stars. 



The fourth book I read this month was Cruel Beauty by: Rosamund Hodge. This is a re-telling of the classic fairy tale Beauty & The Beast. If you didn't know I love fairy tale re tellings and this is one of my most anticipated books of 2014. I would rate it a 4 out of 5 stars.


The fifth book I read this month was Bloodlines by: Richelle Mead. It was just as good as Vampire Academy! I would rate it a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars. Spoiler-free review going up soon!


The sixth book I read this month was The Golden Lily by: Richelle Mead. This is the second book in the Bloodlines series which is the spin off series for Vampire Academy series. I would rate it a 4 out of 5 stars. 


The seventh book I read this month was Blood of Olympus by: Rick Riordan. I would rate it a 4.5 out of 5 stars. 


The eighth book I read this month was Uglies by: Scott Westerfeld. I have been wanting to read this book for a couple of years now and I think that the whole idea of the novel was really interesting but I found things a little predictable. I would rate it a 3.5 out of 5 stars. I really don't know if I'm going to read the rest of the series. 


The ninth book I read this month was Stolen: A letter to my captor by: Lucy Christopher. I read this book for a book club I recently joined called "The Narwhals" and I believe this is our December book but I just wanted to get a head start. This book was very intriguing and it is just wonderful. I would rate it a 4 out of 5 stars. You can read my SPOILER FREE review HERE!



                                                   

The tenth book I read this month was Unravel Me by: Tahereh Mafi. I would rate it a 4.5 out of 5 
stars.





I hope you enjoyed reading this!

Stolen: Lucy Christopher - FTM





It happened like this. I was stolen from an airport. Taken from everything I knew, everything I was used to. Taken to sand and heat, dirt and danger. And he expected me to love him.

This is my story.
A letter from nowhere. 

Sixteen year old Gemma is kidnapped from Bangkok airport and taken to the Australian Outback. This wild and desolate landscape becomes almost a character in the book, so vividly is it described. Ty, her captor, is no stereotype. He is young, fit and completely gorgeous. This new life in the wilderness has been years in the planning. He loves only her, wants only her. Under the hot glare of the Australian sun, cut off from the world outside, can the force of his love make Gemma love him back? 

The story takes the form of a letter, written by Gemma to Ty, reflecting on those strange and disturbing months in the outback. Months when the lines between love and obsession, and love and dependency, blur until they don't exist - almost.

The review is SPOILER FREE!
