The #DivineReadalong 2014!

Heeylo there.

So, I don't think I've mentioned it here before but I have a copy of The Diviners for a few months now and to be honest, I didn't have plans on reading it cause it's one heck of a book, and I have school so the idea of reading gigantic books- in general, was just out of the question for me. 

But around a week ago, I posted a picture of The Diviners and how much I really needed to get started on this book, well through that picture I met Avra from @bookexplorers on instagram and found out that both of us really wanted to read the book! 

So, we decided to host a month long readalong for this book starting from October 1 all the way through October 31! Basically, we're hosting this readalong so it'll be a much more enjoyable experience while reading this book! 

So, without delaying, below are the details of The Diviners by Libba Bray!

Summary
 Evie O’Neill has been exiled from her boring old hometown and shipped off to the bustling streets of New York City—and she is pos-i-tute-ly ecstatic. It’s 1926, and New York is filled with speakeasies, Ziegfeld girls, and rakish pickpockets. The only catch is that she has to live with her uncle Will and his unhealthy obsession with the occult.

Evie worries he’ll discover her darkest secret: a supernatural power that has only brought her trouble so far. But when the police find a murdered girl branded with a cryptic symbol and Will is called to the scene, Evie realizes her gift could help catch a serial killer.

As Evie jumps headlong into a dance with a murderer, other stories unfold in the city that never sleeps. A young man named Memphis is caught between two worlds. A chorus girl named Theta is running from her past. A student named Jericho hides a shocking secret. And unknown to all, something dark and evil has awakened.

September 2014 Book Haul!

Book Haulin' it 

It's been so long since I've written a blog entry, and I've came around to missing blogging! I've been super busy lately with school and haven't had the time or energy to type out a detailed book review :( 

I'm back though, although I make no promises on being consistent with my blog but I'm trying my best to make more blog entries! To make it up to you, I present to you my monthly book haul!

So, I definitely bought less books this month as compared to August (let's just say that last month was a great month in terms of books, but deathly for my wallet) I got a total of 9 books this month! 6 of which were gifts and 3 were purchased by my own money! Let's get on with the books!
