The Raven King (The Raven Cycle #4) Maggie Stiefvater April 26th 2016 Scholastic ******Will probably contain spoilers for this book and the whole series just as a heads up****** I'm not going to try and write a normal review for The Raven King, because quite frankly I don't even know if I'm capable of doing proper reviews any more, and this is not the book or the series where I want to figure that out. That, and my love for this series transcends that of something which I can properly review, as I am completely biased and I *will* fight people about these books. On that note, this is also won't even entirely be about The Raven King on its own. Rather, it's a chance for me to go on and on and on and on and on about how much I love these books and Blue and those darn boys. My biggest fear about The Raven King, as is always the case with final books in a beloved series, was that it wouldn't be a good or fitting ending. I did not need to be worried. Rather than reac...
This is going to be a short post because, if you didn't know already, July was kind of a dead month for me on the blog. I didn't read that much and I certainly didn't review that much... I just really need to read a 5 star, absolutely amazing book because it feels like it's been forever since that happened and I think it will get me out of my reviewing slump a bit. Hopefully I'll at least get around to doing more than 6 posts in August, though...

Book of the Month:
I don't really know for July... Like, I enjoyed everything that I read, but none of it stands out as being particularly outstanding from the rest. If I had to pick one (and I'm not counting Adorkable because it's a reread and one of my favourite books), it would probably be Antigoddess.
Books reviewed:
As I said, it was kind of a slow month for me. But I did actually do a discussion post for once, too! I really wish that I could come up with more ideas about what to do on the blog because I always feel like it gets a bit samey and maybe that's a bit why I'm lacking inspiration for reviewing, as well. But anyway, here's the link to that discussion post, too, should you wish to read it.
In other news, I finished my first year at Sixth Form! I also did literally nothing else. There's not been any telly on that I can talk about or anything. All I've done is watch films, rewatch Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra and start working my way through Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
I hope July has been a more interesting month for you than it has for me! See you in August.
