Number of books I’ve read today: 0
Total number of books I’ve read: 0
Books: Read 76 pages of The Scourge
Challenge: Bookish Survey @ Writing My Own Fairy Tale

1. How do you organize your shelves?

I’m ashamed to say I don’t have a method… I do have my portuguese and english books in different bookshelves, but other than that, randomness.

2. What is one of your favorite book that’s not in one of your favorite genres?

Saga by Brian K.Vaughn. I don’t really read graphic novels and I was shocked when I started reading this series and got totally addicted to it.

3. What is the last 5 star book you read?

Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers. SO GOOD.

4. What book are you most excited to read during the read-a-thon?

Illusions of Fate by Kiersten White. I read The Chaos of Stars last year and I was not expecting to love it like I did, so I’m very excited to read a new book by this author.

5. What book do you recommend the most?

Oh my goodness, my favorite book of all time, Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier. You guys, DO IT. Sorcha’s story will shred your heart and soul into tiny pieces, and then put it all back together again, and you’ll never be the same again. + THE ROMANCE*****

Saga, Vol.1

Illusions of Fate

Grave Mercy

Daughter of the Forest
