March’s To Be Read Pile

Hey Bookworms!

I have only recently started buying books again instead of perusing through Kindle Unlimited, not that there is anything wrong with them….although some are not the greatest quality. Without further ado, these are the books I’ve got on my “To Be Read” list for this month.

Recruitment by K. A. Riley
I’ll be totally honest, I actually received this book and finished it all yesterday. I’ve already moved onto the next book in the trilogy. This book gives me total Hunger Games and Divergent vibes. I loved the Dystopian theme….although the fact that it was set in 2042 made it feel like it’s a little too close to present times to think that the world is going to go to hell in 2031…..ten years? Lordy.

Shatter Me by Tehereh Mafi
I totally bought this off of a recommendation from BookTok. No shame. It sounds very interesting since for our main character one touch has the ability to send a man to his knees gasping. I’m intrigued. Can she control it? Or does everyone suffer the fate of her touch?

Lore by Alexandra Bracken
May have also bought this after seeing how pretty the hardback was on Bookstagram. Zero shame. I love Greek Mythology, and I have loved retellings of Greek Mythology since my first foray into Percy Jackson.

A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
Yes, I’m totally behind the times on this one. Where have I been? I saw a friend of mine reading the most recent installment, and she read it in one sitting. Next thing you know, I’m putting this gorgeous book in my cart and it’s on its way to me.

The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen
Also a BookTok suggestion, but princess? Bringing a king to his knees? Can’t decide if she hates him or wants him? Okay, yes sign me up, please and thank you! Also, the cover is super intriguing. Who is the man in front of her? Is it the king? Someone else? I’m here for it.

Legendborn by Tracy Deonn
I did not finish this one. In fact, I actually read the prologue and first three chapters and am returning it. I am part of the unpopular opinion that did not like this book. I was annoyed at how race permeated every thought the MC had and how she was being arrested for underaged drinking and she was talking about police brutality. I read to get away from today’s drama, not to be pushed further into it.

See y’all after the next chapter!
