May Wrap-up!
Hey! This month I read 6 books!
I was in a bit of a reading slump this month so I didn't get to read as many books as I hoped I would, but that's ok! Hopefully I can read more this month :)

Before I get started I just want to tell you about Thrift Books. This is a website where you can get used books really cheap! I get almost all my books from there. Some of the books obviously look used, but if you don't mind that then you will probably love Thrift Books! I got three books this month for only $12.74 with free shipping because the order was over ten dollars! If you want to check it out click here!
I am not sponsored by Thrift Books....I just want to everyone to read books for cheap money xD

The first book I read this month was The Merchants Daughter by Melanie Dickerson. This is the second book in a fairy tale retelling series but you can read them out of order like I did. :P
This book was a retelling of beauty and the beast. If you didn't know it was a fairy tale retelling you probably wouldn't have known it was beauty in the beast. It was its own book. I really liked it, except for the fact that it was kind of slow in the beginning, but it got better towards the end.
This wasn't my favorite in the series so far, but The Fairest Beauty, the third book in the series, was one of my all time favorite books in the whole world!
I gave this book 3 out of 5 stars. :)

Next, I read An Ember In The Ashes by Sabaa Tahir.
This book was sent to me by Penguin. :) I don't even know where to start to explain how good this book was! I absolutely LOVED it! The characters and plot were amazing! I love how much Laia changed towards the end. I was convinced that Elias and Helene were going to be together, and Laia and...what's that guys name? Kenner...? I don't know, well that just shows how much i didn't care about him. I absolutely loved Elias and Laia together! That part when Elias follows Laia and Izzi out to the Moon Festival, was my favorite part of the whole book because they all got to be normal and free for that one night. And that part where they danced.....it was beautimous.
I gave this book 4.5 out of 5 stars.

The third book I read was The Elite by Kiera Cass.
I don't know what to say about this book. WHY DOES AMERICA HAVE TO BE SO STUPID?!?! She is so stinkin' annoying!!! The most cringe worthy part of the whole thing is when she wears both of their bracelets....when she put maxons on her other wrist i felt like throwing this book out the window and then running over it with a semi truck. I was very upset at this point. I'm going to stop talking about this, because it is making me very mad. I did like The One better, but I will talk about that later. I gave this 3 out of 5 stars.

Then I read Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Mass. I really like this book! Everything was so perfect! I liked how funny Celaena was! I loved Dorian and Chaol too, and to be honest I don't know which one i like better. I love Dorian because because he's so cheeky, but I like Chaol because he knows how to fight and he gets Celaena better. I don't know I would be fine with either one. The king is so stinkin' creepy!! I think he's like working with magic and then somehow later on he's going to do something with it to take over the world. I do not get Kaltain and her headaches! Was Perrington doing something to mess with her head? I am so confused! I LOVED this book so I gave it 5 out of 5 stars!

Next I read Beauty and the Beast from the Faerie Tale Collection, by Jenni James. I don't know if it still is, but I got this book free on the Kindle App!
There wasn't really anything special about this book. It was your typical Beauty and the Beast story. I still liked it though, it was a really quick, easy read. If you adore Disney, like I do, then I think you would really enjoy this book! I gave this 3 out of 5 stars.

I LOVE THIS COVER!!
The last book I read this month was The One by Kiera Cass. This was definitely my favorite of all three books. There was so much more to the story than America trying to decide between her two cheaties. I don't want to get into any spoilers, but I'll just say the end was so epic!! I was not expecting that to happen! Ok, I can't help myself I have to talk about this spoiler! SKIP TO THE NOT RED PART IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK!
Ok....It was so obvious to me the whole time that maxon and america were going to end up together, but at the end when he took the bullet for her and he was like dying under the table or whatever. And then when she wakes up in the hospital and she's looking everywhere for maxon, and that guy tells her he's not there, and she starts crying becuase he's dead. I seriously thought he was dead!! I was hyperventilating! But then Aspen tells her that he's not dead, and then lucy comes in....Oh my word, all the feels! I love how it ended. It was perfect!
Ok, sorry about that. Anyways I loved this book so much! So I gave it 4 out of 5 stars.
