Wrap Up: Mayo 2020

¡Hola a todos! ¿Qué tal estáis? Yo hoy vengo con mi resumen de lecturas de mayo. Este mes he leído diez cosas, y digo cosas porque algunas de ellas no son libros en sí, sino historias cortas o relatos. La verdad es que me hubiese gustado leer algo más, cosa que no he hecho porque he estado bastante perezosa este tiempo y me da algo de rabia. Pero bueno, podría haber sido peor... y seguro que junio lo va a ser porque todavía no he leído nada. Pero está bien, no pasa nada porque leer no tiene que ser una obligación sino un hobby *se intenta auto-convencer* Sin más dilación, aquí os dejo mis diez lecturas de mayo:

Si veis alguna que os llame la atención a primera vista, os aconsejo que le echéis un vistazo en Amazon porque muchas las encontré gratis allí. Mi favorito de los libros ha sido Sorcery of Thorns, y de las historias cortas he disfrutado mucho de Conversaciones con un extraño y de Piluca y el síndrome de Willy Fog. ¡Espero que vosotros hayáis tenido un buen mes de lecturas y que el próximo sea igual o mejor!

PD: ¿Habéis visto el cambio en el editor de entradas de Blogger? A mí me estás volviendo loca, y no es nada gracioso...

Novedades: Junio 2020

¡Hola! Hoy, aunque llego un poquito tarde, os traigo las novedades del mes de junio. Son siete en total, ¡y son muy interesantes y variadas!

42952728Título: Kissing Lessons
Autora: Sophie Jordan
Fecha de publicación: 2 de Junio de 2020
Sinopsis: A steamy contemporary YA romance by New York Times best-selling author Sophie Jordan about a girl with a bad reputation giving lessons on how to attract guys for some extra cash—only to fall for her client’s golden-boy brother. For fans of Kami Garcia, Katie McGarry, and Netflix’s Sex Education.

Wild, beautiful, and (as rumor has it) experienced, Hayden Vargas doesn’t have time for love or relationships. She’s learned the hard way that the only person you can count on is yourself, and she’s hell-bent on earning enough money to leave her small, judgy Texas town as fast as possible. So when nerdy Emmaline Martin offers to pay Hayden for lessons in seduction, the money is so easy, there must be a catch. Enter the catch: Emmaline’s older brother, popular, all-around nice guy™ Nolan Martin, who doesn’t want his sister’s reputation tarnished by the school’s resident bad girl.

But Hayden should know that looks can be deceiving. Nolan may seem like a golden boy, but like Hayden, he has a few secrets of his own. And the more he meddles in her lessons with Emmaline, the more these polar opposites clash—and the more sparks fly. Turns out Nolan may have some lessons to teach Hayden, but only if she’s willing to learn.

When that same witch pays them a visit on the day they lose their kingdom, she promises to make their deepest wishes come true in exchange for a simple favor and a short journey. With nothing left to lose, Imelda and Ambrose agree. But, over the course of their enchanted road trip peppered with a delirious cloak, cannibals, and at least one honey badger, something magical happens...little by little, step by step, they regain what they had forgotten.

When the end of their journey nears and they confront parting ways forever, a new decision faces them. Will Imelda and Ambrose choose their deepest wishes, or will they choose each other - again?

But the bloodletting and loss of his beloved Nahri have unleashed the worst demons of Dara’s dark past. To vanquish them, he must face some ugly truths about his history and put himself at the mercy of those he once considered enemies.

Having narrowly escaped their murderous families and Daevabad’s deadly politics, Nahri and Ali, now safe in Cairo, face difficult choices of their own. While Nahri finds peace in the old rhythms and familiar comforts of her human home, she is haunted by the knowledge that the loved ones she left behind and the people who considered her a savior are at the mercy of a new tyrant. Ali, too, cannot help but look back, and is determined to return to rescue his city and the family that remains. Seeking support in his mother’s homeland, he discovers that his connection to the marid goes far deeper than expected and threatens not only his relationship with Nahri, but his very faith.

Colby is stuck in a rut, reeling from a family tragedy and working a dead-end job—unsure what his future holds, or if he even cares. The last thing he has time for is some privileged rich girl preaching the sanctity of the political process. So he says the worst thing he can think of and hangs up.

But things don’t end there.…

That night on the phone winds up being the first in a series of candid, sometimes heated, always surprising conversations that lead to a long-distance friendship and then—slowly—to something more.

You Say It First is a propulsive, layered novel about how sometimes the person who has the least in common with us can be the one who changes us most.

42952728Título: The Dare (Briar U #4)
Autora: Elle Kennedy
Fecha de publicación: 16 de Junio de 2020
Sinopsis: College was supposed to be my chance to get over my ugly-duckling complex and spread my wings. Instead, I wound up in a sorority full of mean girls. I already have a hard time fitting in, so when my Kappa Chi sisters issue the challenge, I can’t say no.

The dare: seduce the hottest new hockey player in the junior class.

Conor Edwards is a regular at Greek Row parties…and in Greek Row sorority beds. He’s the one you fall for before you learn that guys like him don’t give girls like me a second glance. Except Mr. Popular throws me for a loop—rather than laughing in my face, he does me a solid by letting me take him upstairs to pretend we’re getting busy.

Even crazier, now he wants to keep pretending. Turns out Conor loves games, and he thinks it’s fun to pull the wool over my frenemies’ eyes.

But resisting his easy charm and surfer-boy hotness is darn near impossible. Though I’m realizing there’s much more to Conor’s story than his fan club can see.

And the longer this silly ruse goes on, the greater the danger of it all blowing up in my face.
