Book Porn Tuesday

I've decide to come up with a series on my channel. Basically every Tuesday I show you guys a book with a really pretty cover, and I explain how much I enjoyed it.

This week's cover is:

 Goodreads

Genre: YA Contemporary (Goodreads page link is in the bio)


I absolutely adore this cover! While I normally dislike covers with people on it , this was done so well. It's so simplistic and I love how the red pops out. Anyway, this book is basically about this girl that wakes up in a white room and has to while away her time by writing what she lasts remembers. I swear this book is more than it seems! I just don't want to spoil it anything! It's very confusing so it's a book I had to re-read to fully get it. I gave it a 5* rating on my Goodreads.

*Trigger warning: There are cases of self harm and suicide in this novel. 

This week's book is:


Snow Like Ashes by Sarah Raasch!

Genre: Fantasy
 Goodreads

'Snow Like Ashes is book that is centered around four Kingdoms: Spring, Winter, Summer and Autumn. Sixteen years before this book began, Spring took over Winter and enslaved the entire population- except for eight. They have been waiting for the opportunity to steal back Winter's magic and rebuild their Kingdom. The main character of this story is an orphan called Meira who is desperate to prove herself and play a role in the retaking of he kingdom. And her time has finally come, but it comes with a price.

Thoughts: 

I really enjoyed this book and I gave it a 5* on my goodreads page. it started off slow ad does any series (world building), then it slowly built up to 'woah! this is amazing' I'm still a bit confused over the terms and such, but I loved the world and the characters (especially Prince Theron). The book ended really well with no major cliff hanger so I'm in no hurry for the next one to come but I'm still really excited as to what will happen in Ice like Fire.

Thank you for reading this post. Next week's post will be The Reader's Problems Tag!


This week's book is a book whose cover has recently been revealed:


Queen of Shadows! 

Genre:YA Fantasy
(Click the book for the Goodreads page)

 Goodreads Goodreads

Queen of Shadows by Sarah. J. Mass! The cover on the left is the Hardback edition and the cover on the right is the UK Paperback This is my most anticipate release of this year, it is the 4th installment of the Throne of Glass series and I can't wait to get my hands on a copy. I won't divulge what Queen of Shadows is about - because spoilers. But Throne of Glass is basically, a YA high fantasy novel, about an Assassin called Caelena Saradothein who was captured and put in a work camp called Eindoheven.  This story take place a year after she has been enslave; the prince of Adarlan comes to see her and offers her a bargain: Either rot in this work camp or compete in a tournament to become the King's champion. I considered this book to be 5* because it as my first Fantasy novel and it made me fall in love with the genre. To some, this book as enjoyable for the most part. This series on a whole is amazing and I strongly recommend that you start it NOW.


This weeks beautiful cover goes to:

The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken
Genre: YA Dystopia



 Goodreads page




I literally just finished this trilogy and it was a-mazing! I really wasn't expecting it to be that good. I read the first book late last year and I finally got around to completing the series. The Darkest Minds centers around a girl called Ruby, who at 10 years old was taken away along with other children around her age to a concentration camp called Thurmond (there are many others). Now, at sixteen she has managed to break free and is on the run. I've honestly never been a fan of dystopians but this book has swayed me and I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to pick it up. It is filled with humour, amazing complex characters, deaths that will rip your heart out. And please for the love of God do not miss out on the novellas In Time and Sparks Rise, I prefer In Time, but they both give more information about the side characters who I promise you will adore.
