Biggest Book Hangovers



So a book hangover is when you’ve read a really good book (a good night out) but now you’ve got a really bad hangover (didn’t want the book to finish)


- Dorothy Koomson 
Ok so I know she is an author, but every book I’ve read by her I just didn’t want it to end. With her books because they are stand alone books (which are sometimes better then series) I find myself wanting her to revisit some of those characters because I want to know where they are now. What they are doing, feeling, I just wanna know. 














- The Devil Wears Prada
I don’t know why I loved this book so much. I think it’s got something to do with the fact it was the first book I remember reading that wasn’t Harry Potter or a book that was considered a children’s book/young teenager book.





- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 

HP and the Deathly Hallows gives me such big hangover because it’s the last book in the series. Before you always had another book to read. But when it came to the Deathly Hallows there isn’t another book the the series. Sure you could read The Cursed Child or Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them. But for me the first seven books are the ones.




- The Great Gatsby 
For a book to keep me interested after seeing the movie and not particularly like the genre it’s in is brilliant. It’s not a book that leaves me wanting to know more about any of the characters but one that I felt as if I knew them in some way.

August Wrap Up



Books Read: 3 Books
Book Challenge Complete % 27 books read. 90% complete 
Am I Ahead? And By How Many Books: Yes and by 8 books

Welcome to August’s wrap up, as each month ends I can’t believe it’s over. It’s gone so quickly and I always think the summer months go super quickly. So it’s goodbye to another August. 

- Me Before You
Possibly one of the worst books I’ve read in a while. Cheesey, predictable, not well written and I wanted to scream at every point. It’s one of those books that people rush to because its being made into a movie.  



- Marshmallows For Breakfast 
Ok so I didn’t realize that I already read the book earlier in the year so it’s on my list twice. It doesn’t matter though because it’s such a beautiful book


- Girl A
So I wasn’t going to add Girl A to my overall all Book Challenge, but I re read Marshmallows For Breakfast a second time by accident and had it put on my list as a re read,  

Update
- Matched
So I’ve not quite finished Matched, but I wanted to put an update at the end of the wrap up. I have about 60/70 pages left to read.
