Review

After weeks and weeks of reading I finally finished this graphic novel and daaaamn I loved it!

This book follows the 2 main characters Marko and Alana further into the story. They fled the planet and have gone to Marko's parents who are more than excited to see that they have a grandchild, especially Barr, Marko's father. He needs to find something on the island and decides to go find it together with his mum. In the meantime Alana spends some time with Barr and little baby Hazel. Barr soon tells he has not much time to live anymore.. 

Many things suddenly happen and Barr dies. They flea the location they were on and go to another planet, the Planet Alana's favorite author lives on..... 

Omg this second book was amazing! The story developed so amazingly. The characters each got more deapth into themselves and it was a great continuation of the 1st volume. 

Also this book has a great paperback copy!  The pink cover and the drawings on it look amaze! 

Overall, I give the book 4 out of 5 stars! 

February YA book releases

ohmy! January went by incredibly fast! also the books that got published looked extremely good. Also this month, February, I'll be sharing 4 books who are going to be released with you guys! I'm going to start with a book I already pre-ordered, and I've pre-ordered the signed edition! Now hope that Bol.com will send me the right one xD

The book I want to talk first about is Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard! This book will be the 2nd book in the Red Queen series. Although I haven't read red queen yet I still am super excited about this one! Because it's a 2nd book in a series I won't spoil too much about it. The girl in this book has powers of which the court wants to get hold of. She's looking for other Reds&Silvers to fight with her against those very people who want to control her. Will she survive all this?
This book will be released on February 9th by HarperTeen.

The 2nd book I'd like to share with you is 'Stars above' by Melissa Meyer. This book contains all the short stories of her book series 'The lunar Chronicles', which I also haven't read yet :O
This book will come out on February 2nd by Feiwel&friends.

The 3rd book is a book by C.J Redwine and is called 'The Shadow Queen'. This book will be the 1st book in her all new series 'Ravenspire'. The book is about a girl who needs to kill a queen. This guy named Kol needs to bring the queen Lorelai's (the girl) heart. Although he never thought Lorelai would be this different than he expected her to be....
This book will be released February 16th by Balzer+Bray.

The final book which is also being released in February is Starflight by Melissa Landers. This will also be a first book in a new series. This book has a bit fantasy & sci-fi in it and will come out on February 2nd by Disney-Hyperion.

January wrap-up and February TBR

It's February! The month of love! (not that I'm sharing mine with anyone xD) But just call it a new month :P
In January I made a new Goodreads reading challenge. I'll be reading 30 books in 2016 and even hope I'll read more, but so far I've set my goal on 30. Out of those 30, I already read 3 books of that goal in January.
The books I've read are:
- Saga Volume 2 by Brian K. Vaughn
- De gele ballon by Charlotte Dematons
De gele ballon Recensie
- Of Triton by Anna Banks
Of Triton Review

I'm quite happy I actually read these 3 books, despite the lack of time because of school I had. Means that this month hopefully more books will be read!
I'm planning on reading the following books:
- The Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot
- Suske en Wiske, De ringelingschat by Willy Vandersteen
- my true love gave to me by Various Authors
- Meester Jaap houdt van iedereen by Jaques Vriens
- through the woods by Emily Carroll

Can't wait to read read read and keep on reading!

#FridayReads 29-01

Olaaa!

It's friday again, this week went by incredibly fast! :O

last week I didn't do a fridayreads because I spent most of my day in school and travelling to see my family in Germany (Bonn). But last weekend was a great weekend!
I had a party of my oldest cousin who turned 30 and saturday and sunday spent the day a bit with my family before heading back home by train in the sunday afternoon.
In the train I finished reading the graphic novel 'Saga volume 2', And while being in Bonn I bought 2 great books in an amazing bookstore there. The bookstore used to be an old theater and it was gorgeous! The books I bought while being in Germany are Selection by Keira Cass (read this one in English but am so excited to try it in German too!) and bought Silber, das erste buch der träume by Kerstin Gier. I'm so excited to read both of them!

So, now let's talk about this weekend. The weekend will be kinda boring. I'll be doing schoolwork all weekend long and also will try to read a bit!
At the moment I'm reading 3 books and I plan to finish at least one of them!
The books I'll be reading this weekend are:
The princess diaries by Meg Cabot
My true love gave to me by Various authors
Suske en Wiske, De ringelingschat by Willy Vandersteen

Which book will you be reading over the weekend?
