Tentative July To Be Read

            I am so bad at to be read piles. I am mostly a mood reader, so I’ll sit staring at my bookshelves until something piques my interest. This month, however, I have a small stack of ARCS and library books that need to be read before school starts next month. Yikes. I don’t want to think about that. Mostly because I’ll be graduating in a year. Anyways, the books are much more important. I’m going to talk about the books I’m excited for this month/the books that I have to read and review. I don’t think I’m going to get too much in the synopsis of these because I’ve been trying to go into books blind. I’ll give a brief summary of the main plots, but I feel like too often the synopsis spoils a book. Without further ado, let’s get into the books!

Daughter of the Burning City by Amanda Foody:
            This is a murder mystery set in a fantasy circus. I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy of this (comes out July 25) and I’m already slightly behind. This is top priority.

A Torch Against the Night by Sabaa Tahir:
            This is the sequel to An Ember in the Ashes. It’s a fantasy inspired by ancient Rome, and the first book in this series was fantastic. I have this checked out from the library.

The Resurrection of Joan Ashby by Cherise Wolas:
            I have no idea what this is about really, I picked up this because the cover is stunning and I think it’s about a writer. This comes out September 2017, so you have a few months to wait.

White Bodies by Jane Robinson:
            I’ve been weirdly into thrillers lately. This is an adult thriller that comes out September 2017. If you liked Gone Girl or Girl on the Train you will probably want this on your radar.

Girls Made of Snow and Glass by Melissa Bashardoust:
            This is an LGBT fantasy retelling of Snow White, and I couldn’t be more excited to read this. This also comes out Setptember 2017. You definitely want this book on your radar.


            These are my tentative plans for reading this July. I’m hoping that I’ll be able to get to more than this, just because, like I mentioned before, school is starting in a month and a half and I won’t have hardly any time to read once it starts up again. Have you heard of any of these? Let me know in the comments!
