February 2023: Read

February has been a pretty good month for reading. Though it didn’t start off great. I had my first five-star of the year.

Books read:

  1. The Days of Elijah by John Noble (2/5 star)
  2. Vanished by Irene Hannon (3/5 star)
  3. The Queen Trials by Penelope Wright (DNF)
  4. Rooted in Wonder by Eryn Lynum (4/5 star)
  5. Anatomy: A Love Story by Dana Schwartz (Putting back for October)
  6. In the Field of Grace by Tessa Afshar (5/5 star)
  7. The Selection by Kiera Cass (2.5/5 star)
  8. Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard (Putting back until physical copy)
  9. Gods & Kings by Lynn Austin (4/5 star)
  10. The Nerd & the Quarterback by M.L. Collins (3/5 star)
  11. The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins (5/5 star)

Favorites of the month:

I loved Rooted in Wonder. My all-time favorite would have to be In the Fields of Grace. That made an already powerful story even more powerful.

Disappointments:

The Days of Elijah sounded amazing, but the writing was too modern so it took me out of Ancient Israel set. The Queen Trials was a disappointment because it had potential but there were too many elements that I did not like in the plot. Plus taking the Lord’s name in vain.
The Selection was a hyped book that I felt didn’t really deserve all the hate but didn’t deserve all the love either. It wasn’t completely amazing. I would have liked the book if it wasn’t for Aspen.
