I also got The Dysasters as I'll be participating in the blog tour for it! Ok guys, I really meant to post this week. I swear. It's just been one of those weeks. I've had a headache for 4 days now. It's like I think it's gone and its just dulled enough to where its not bothering me every few minutes. Ugh! Guys, I really hate headaches! They are so distracting! Hoping I can finally get rid of it this weekend. But I'm gonna try...

The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air #2) by Holly Black Tales From The Shadowhunter Academy by Cassandra Clare, Sarah Rees Brennan, Maureen Johnson, & Robin Wasserman I went and bought myself the pretty B&N Edition of The Wicked King. It's seriously so beautiful! And I found a nice used copy of Tales From The Shadowhunter Academy. I plan on reading all the Shadowhunter books this year to get completely caught up, so I've been buying the short story bind ups to have them ready!  Arctic Drift (Dirk Pitt #20) by Clive Cussler & Dirk Cussler Valhalla Rising (Dirk Pitt #16) by Clive Cussler Obviously I'm slowly collecting all the Dirk Pitt novels....

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Topic: Most Anticipated Releases For The First Half of 2019 Ok, I had a hard time narrowing this down to 10. So I tried to narrow it down to mostly books I haven't talked much about yet minus the first one.  1. The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air #2) by Holly Black - I loved The Cruel Prince and have been dying for The Wicked King since. I seriously cannot wait to see how things are going to go down after the way The Cruel Prince ended.  2. Aurora Rising (The Aurora Cycle #1) by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff - Guys, you know I fell in love with the Illuminae Files last year. After those books, I will literally buy any book these two write together no questions asked.  3. Four Dead Queens by Astrid Scholte - This book just sounds amazin...

The Wicked King (Folk of the Air #2)  Author: Holly Black Publisher: Little, Brown BYR Publication Date: January 8, 2019 The enchanting and bloodthirsty sequel to the New York Times bestselling novel The Cruel Prince. You must be strong enough to strike and strike and strike again without tiring. The first lesson is to make yourself strong. After the jaw-dropping revelation that Oak is the heir to Faerie, Jude must keep her younger brother safe. To do so, she has bound the wicked king, Cardan, to her, and made herself the power behind the throne. Navigating the constantly shifting political alliances of Faerie would be difficult enough if Cardan were easy to control. But he does everything in his power to humiliate and undermine her even as his fascination with her remains undiminished. When it becomes all too clear that someone close to Jude means to betray her, threatening her own life and the lives of everyone she loves, Jude must uncover the traitor and fight her own complic...

Queen of Air and Darkness (The Dark Artifices #3) by Cassandra Clare It has the art of the characters on the inside of the dust jacket.

I honestly enjoyed this a lot more than I originally thought I was! I haven't been the biggest reader of anything adult and kinda shied away from this since it's one of James absolute favorite books, but I'm so glad I finally decided to pick it up and read it! I have a huge interest now in reading more of the Dirk Pitt novels after reading this. So the thing that really interested me most about this was the Titanic! I have a huge interest in un...

So I'm still having a hard time with my mental health guys. There's issues going on in my personal life that quite honestly, I don't want to discuss with everyone on the blog. If you guys are truly concerned or want to reach out to talk to me, you're more than welcome to DM me on Twitter. But otherwise, I'm gonna try and have a better reading month in January to keep me distracted. Vixen 03 (Dirk Pitt #5) by Clive Cussler Archenemies (Renegades #2) by Marissa Meyer The Wicked King (Folk of the Air #2) by Holly Black Last of Her Name by Jessica Khoury So Vixen 03 and Archenemies are books carried over from 2018. I'm about halfway through both so I'm wanting to finish them first of all this month! Then, DUH, of course I want to read The Wicked King. That's a given. And Last of Her Name is one of my ARCs I want to get done.  Enchantée by Gita Trelease Warrior of the Wild by Tricia Levenseller The Deceivers (Vale Hall #1) by Kristen Simmons Spectacle ...
