I can keep this quite short as I was in a bit of a reading slump in January.. I only read two books and yes I am ashamed.. My True Love Gave to Me - Edited by Stephanie PerkinsSYNOPSIS: Twelve holiday stories by twelve YA authors. Rating: 5/5 WOW I loved this!! I loved all of these stories, and yes I'm including the super bizarre ones. SYNOPSIS: Evie's father left her a virtual reality game to help her deal with tough times. Rating: 3/5 Eh. This was enjoyable, but the story was rushed, I didn't like the colours, and Joe Sugg didn't actually write it. Full review will be up soon. That's all.. More books in February, I hope!

Only a month late, here is my December 2017 wrap-up! A little Christmas throwback in February- the weather here is more Christmas-y than it was at Christmas anyway! The Heir (The Selection #4)SYNOPSIS: America and Maxon's daughter holds her own Selection. Rating: 4/5 Quite enjoyable. I preferred the original trilogy as I found Eadlyn to be insufferable. The Crown (The Selection #5)SYNOPSIS: Eadlyn's Selection comes to an end. Rating: 3/5 This was about the same as book #4. The ending managed to surprise me, which I guess is good in some way, but also bad as it felt kind of rushed and deus ex machina-ish. Decked with Holly - Marni BatesSYNOPSIS: Holly ends up having to pretend to be a famous singer's girlfriend. Rating: 3/5 I don't like slut shaming, but I do like celebrity romances and Christmas, so this was a difficult one for me. Full review here. What Light - Jay AsherSYNOPSIS: Sierra falls in love with a boy with a secret while she is in California selling Christmas trees in December. Rating: 4/5 Yes!! I liked this a lot!! Once I got over how bizarre the " secret " is this was very enjoyable and cute. Also very Christmas-y! Kindred Spirits - Rainbow RowellSYNOPSIS: Elena waits in line for the Star Wars movie premiere. Rating: 3/5 Short and sweet. A good number of books for December!
