Hey Guys! I am actually quite proud of myself because I finished reading 3 books last month which were: The Wheel Mages by Aimee Davis, The Ghost Of Heaven by Marcus Sedgwick and Chewy Noh and The Fall Of The Mu-Dang by Tim Learn. I will be linking the reviews down below:
- The Ghost Of Heaven By Marcus Sedgwick
- Chewy Noh and The Fall Of The Mu-Dang By Tim Learn
- The Wheel Mages By Aimee Davis
So, without further ado, let’s get into my May TBR!
1. King’s Cage by Victoria Aveyard
(BEAUTIFUL COVER!)
*Do not read King’s Cage synopsis if you have not read Red Queen!*
Synopsis:
In this breathless third installment to Victoria Aveyard’s bestselling Red Queen series, allegiances are tested on every side. And when the Lightning Girl’s spark is gone, who will light the way for the rebellion?
Mare Barrow is a prisoner, powerless without her lightning, tormented by her lethal mistakes. She lives at the mercy of a boy she once loved, a boy made of lies and betrayal. Now a king, Maven Calore continues weaving his dead mother’s web in an attempt to maintain control over his country—and his prisoner.
As Mare bears the weight of Silent Stone in the palace, her once-ragtag band of newbloods and Reds continue organizing, training, and expanding. They prepare for war, no longer able to linger in the shadows. And Cal, the exiled prince with his own claim on Mare’s heart, will stop at nothing to bring her back.
When blood turns on blood, and ability on ability, there may be no one left to put out the fire—leaving Norta as Mare knows it to burn all the way down.
I will be reading this book with my friend over at @thegeekybookgirl. Feel free to join us if you want to and you guys should totally check out her Instagram page! Her pictures are marvelous!
2. Select by Marit Wiesenberg
Synopsis:
Coming from a race of highly-evolved humans, Julia Jaynes has the perfect life. The perfect family. The perfect destiny. But there’s something rotten beneath the surface—dangerous secrets her father is keeping; abilities she was never meant to have; and an elite society of people determined to keep their talents hidden and who care nothing for the rest of humanity. So when Julia accidentally disrupts the Jaynes’ delicate anonymity, she’s banished to the one place meant to make her feel inferior: public high school.
Julia’s goal is to lay low and blend in. Then she meets him—John Ford, tennis prodigy, all-around good guy. When Julia discovers a knack for reading his mind, and also manipulating his life, school suddenly becomes a temporary escape from the cold grip of her manipulative father. But as Julia’s powers over John grow, so do her feelings. For the first time in her life, Julia begins to develop a sense of self, to question her restrictive upbringing and her family prejudices. She must decide: can a perfect love be worth more than a perfect life?
Actually, I am currently this book and I am very confused with the characters and the world. But anyways, I will finish up this book soon.
3. Strange the dreamer by Laini Taylor
(GORGEOUS COVER!)
Synopsis:
The dream chooses the dreamer, not the other way around—and Lazlo Strange, war orphan and junior librarian, has always feared that his dream chose poorly. Since he was five years old he’s been obsessed with the mythic lost city of Weep, but it would take someone bolder than he to cross half the world in search of it. Then a stunning opportunity presents itself, in the person of a hero called the Godslayer and a band of legendary warriors, and he has to seize his chance or lose his dream forever.
What happened in Weep two hundred years ago to cut it off from the rest of the world? What exactly did the Godslayer slay that went by the name of god? And what is the mysterious problem he now seeks help in solving?
The answers await in Weep, but so do more mysteries—including the blue-skinned goddess who appears in Lazlo’s dreams. How did he dream her before he knew she existed? And if all the gods are dead, why does she seem so real?
Welcome to Weep.
I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR THIS BOOK! I love the ‘Daughter of Smoke and Bone’ trilogy by Laini Taylor and therefore, I have high hopes!
This is the end of my May TBR post! I hope you all enjoyed it and follow me with your email/wordpress account to get notifications when I post a new article! Bye!
You are delightful and I am an author of many books. Check them out on Amazon. One day, you may decide to read and enjoy a book written by me.

I was approved for Select too. I keep putting off reading it because I’ve seen a lot of my friends giving it iffy reviews. It’s a shame too, because I was so looking forward to it. Hope it improves for you!

I’m trying to squeeze 4 to 6 books in each month, but it’s not quite working out as planned. Need to dedicate more time to reading and less to the pub!

Life has a habit of getting on the way. Solution? Read a bunch of short books – plenty of classics out there (Crying of Lot 49, Naked Lunch, The Haunting of Hill House, The Rats, etc)

Nice write-ups. I’m guessing from your picture that you may be a Middle Schooler or High Schooler youself, but I certainly wouldn’t make that guess from the quality of your writing.
