Currently Reading

I'm reading two ebooks at the moment. One on my kindle and one on my phone because of Google Books on my smartphone.

Kindle book: The Beauty of Darkness by Mary E. Pearson the final book in the Remnant Chronicles.
Google book: The Book of Halloween by Ruth Kelley

Hoping to finish these both up over the weekend. Or atleast the first week of October.

What are you currently reading?

October TBR 2017

I love OCTOBER!!!!!!! The month I live for!! I love Halloween!! It has always been my favorite holiday. Even when I was a kid. I get sad when it is November 1st. Even though some of my family members make fun of me for not liking scary movies. I think you can still love Halloween without some of the spookiness.

My hopes for reading October. Is to read alot. I do have one weekend where I won't be focused on reading. My best friend is getting married. I'm the maid of honor.

Misty over at The Book Rat is doing the 30daybookbinge again. I am totally in. I know I should list the books I want to read. But we all know I never really stick to it. Instead of saying these are the books I want to read. I'm just going to go with the flow. I do want to read Halloween like books.

What are your reading plans for October? Will you be reading scary books? Or are you like me and keep it tame... I can read R.L. Stine. So yeah....


Happy Reading, Ashley

September Wrap Up 2017

Is it just me or is 2017 flying by way too fast? I feel like it was just the beginning of September and it will be over on Saturday. I know I'm posting this early. But I don't see myself finishing a 600 something page book before the month is over. I 'm a slow read at times. September wasn't a busy month for me. My brother had one race left for the season and then we were done for this racing season. He finished 7th in points!! Also visited a big fair that happens every year here. I scored a big bag of candy for 28.00. It is one of those stands you can choose what candy you want. 

Anyways here is all the books I read in September. 

1. Color Squared by Lee Meredith 4/5 books

I received this from Blogging For Books exchange for an honest review. This is an interesting coloring book. I liked the images and the ideas the author gives you.

2. Emblaze by Jessica Shirvington 4/5 stars

I struggled with this book. I honestly just wanted to give up on finishing the series.

3. Endless by Jessica Shirvington 5/5 stars

This was a lot better for me then book 4.

4. The Outskirts by T.M. Frazier

I am in love with anything Tracey writes. So when she released this gem, I needed to read it. Luckily I can person in the Frazierland group gifted it to me. To help deal with the scary hurricane weather going on. I loved this book. and the cliffhanger at the end. Grr..... good thing book 2 is going to be out November 1st.

5.Empower by Jessica Shirvington 5/5 stars

This was a crazy ride from start to finish. I am so happy to have completed this series. 

6. Sweet Tooth by R.M. Huffman 3/5 stars

A short story about a vampire going trick or treating at a hospital on Halloween night. I loved it.

7. Dirty Little Secret by Kendall Ryan 5/5 stars

I received this from NetGalley exchange for an honest review. This one gave me some 50 shades vibes. I enjoyed reading about Emma and Gavin. Eagerly awaiting for more in this series.This was my first time reading anything by Kendall. I hope to read a few more of her books before 2017 is over.

That's a wrap on September. I read everything on my kindle minus the coloring book. I go through phases of loving read on my kindle. It is so helpful at night. Especially with having Oliver in  my room still. 

What all did you read in September? Did you read any of the books I talked about in this post? Let me know in the comments or email at booksarediamonds@yahoo.com

Would love some feedback.

Happy Reading, Ashley 

Weekend Reading/Currently Reading

This post is me just updating you all on what I'm reading for the weekend/currently reading. I started Empower by Jessica Shirvington. The final book in the Embrace/The Violet Eden Chapters series. I'm 22% into the book. It picks up 2 years after the events in Endless. I'm looking forward to finish this book and the series. I still have to read the three review books I need to read for this month. But so far I've read the books I wanted to get read. Minus one book that I got to read unexpectedly. The Outskirts by T.M. Frazier. I read her King series a couple months back. I fell in love with her writing.

That is my weekend reading and currently reading for now. What are you all reading for the weekend? Are you tackling your TBR's for the month?

Let me know down in the comments. Would love to read some comments.

Happy Reading, Ashley
