July Round Up and Book of the Month


July's Book of the Month is Dark Triumph by Robin LaFevers



*Drums head against desk* In all seriousness though, why did none of you tie me down and make me read this series sooner!? I finally decided to pick up Grave Mercy (the first in this series) in May and I loved it so much. To my surprise Dark Triumph was even better. It's such a "Jess book" and I loved everything about it. If you haven't read this series yet YOU NEED TO! Especially if you're a fan of books like Throne of Glass and Shadow and Bone. I seriously can't wait for Mortal Heart to be released in November, although, I can't see it surpassing my love for Dark Triumph - then again that's what I thought after Grave Mercy. NEW FAVOURITE SERIES ALERT PEOPLE!!!!!


*** Sybella and Beast though, am I right? ***
