Hi bookworms!
What are you reading? And what are you planning to read on the weekend?
I'm currently reading THE IRON QUEEN BY JULIE KAGAWA.
As I said before if you're following me, I am in love with Ash. Ah, this guy is so cool and lovable. He makes this book 10 times better. However, I am half through it, and you all must read this series. You know, it's just THAT good, okay? Stop. Buy it. Now.
Welcome (:
Hello everyone and welcome to my bookblog!
I'm Martina, 22, and I live in the middle of nowhere in Italy. (Yeah, it's so sad! I don't wanna live here!)
I love books and here I will talk about 'em. YA, dystopian, scifi, paranormal, contemporary..... I am a BIBLIOPHILE.

Bookhaul #1
Hi guys!
It's been a while since I post something, exams suck! (But everything went well!yay!)
Today I'm gonna make some changes on my blog, but first.... Let's talk about my lovely BOOKHAUL!!!! It's tiny, but I'm so excited about every single book!
As you already know, I've been reading the Iron Fey by Julie Kagawa for awhile and now, I have the entire series on my shelf! On my July TBR post, you can see what's about!
Then, I have almost completed (Daimon is the only novella I don't have it yet!) the Covenant series by Jennifer L. Armentrout: Elixir, Apollyon and Sentinel. On the link here I had a little talk about this books.
But now, let's get to the unknown part.....
Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
All I know about this book is that is part of a trilogy, it's a dystopian YA, it has a wonderful writing and it's very poetic. The book talks about Juliette, who has an incredible gift or curse. Her touches are legal, literally she kills people when she touches them. For this reason, she's been captured and keep isolated by the government.
After some paranormal/dystopian books, I decided I wanted something more "summery" and "easy". I picked Anna and the french kiss by Stephanie Perkins. Yes, as you can notice I'm a bit ashamed that I haven't read anything by Stephanie Perkins. But now, I can. What's better than a cute summer read at the beach? NOTHING. This story follows Anna and her experience in a new school. She had to move to French, due to her father's job. Maybe here, she will fine the love of her life. I WILL DEFINITELY SEE.
And last but not least, *drumm roll* Looking for Alaska by John Green. I really don't know much about it. I know it's awesome, just like every other John's books. So let's read!!!
GOODBYEEEEEEEEE <3

June Wrap Up
Hello everyone!!!!
Welcome to my June Wrap Up! This month wasn't very productive, I had to do a lot of stuff such as STUDYING FOR FINALS at my university. (Ahw, so boring!) And I'm still studying. This is a endless nightmare.
By the way, let's start.
At the beginning at the month, I finished the Under The Never Sky Saga by Veronica Rossi.
#1 'THROUGH THE EVER NIGHT' & #2 'INTO THE STILL BLUE' BY VERONICA ROSSI
I really enjoyed these sequels, they were very well written. I think that this series goes into my top fav dystopian novel. The first book is more focused on Perry, the male protagonist. It was nothing but amazing. I don't want spoil nothing to anyone, but they are a very fast paced reading and I recommend 'em to everyone. Romance, cool new world, fights, Perry, Roar.... should I go on?
And the end? Well, just perfect. Mmm, maybe I wanted more.. but you know. Everything was right.
I gave both of them 5 of 5 stars.
I gave it 3 of 5 stars. But maybe I was too good. Let's just say that the whole story was kinda unrealistic, but then okay, I went on. Some of the themes were very complicated and I would have liked if they were analyzed and written in a better way. I didn't like either of the characters. I don't think I would recommend this book.

“Love was like the waves in the sea, gentle and good sometimes, rough and terrible at others, but that it was endless and stronger than the sky and earth and everything in between.” ― Veronica Rossi, Through the Ever Night, Perry.
#3 ONE WEEK GIRLFRIEND BY MONICA MURPHY
#4 HOPELESS BY COLLEEN HOOVER
I gave it 5 of 5 stars. Colleen Hoover is a GREAT author.
Everytime there was a twist, I never knew what was going on, indeed she is very talented. I really enjoyed this book, it wasn't
an easy reading, due to the themes on it but it was very fast and wow, very good.
Holder is now officially one of the
best BF in the whole world. I liked these characters, they were
real and sarcastic and so so so lovable! I recommend this awesome book!
#5 EASY BY TAMMARA WEBBER
I gave it 3 of 5 stars. It was an enjoyable reading, fast paced and there was a mysterious male character. It was enjoyable but some parts were very unrealistic. At the beginning of the book, the female protagonist is almost raped and she doesn't even act like that big of a deal. And I was like "WHAT?!". No, this theme was very BAD written. But after all, it was quite likable.
#6 CITY OF HEAVENLY FIRE BY CASSANDRA CLARE
I gave 5 of 5 stars. OH THE FEELS!!!!! I do not have much words to say it. It
was perfect. The perfect end. I am so grateful for this book. It was
how should have ended. It was so good, it was much better than good.
I am so happy about it. It was perfect. And at the same time I am so
sad because it's over. I just wanted more. More of Jace and Clary and
all of them. I'm missing them already. Thank you, Cassie, for giving this to
us. It was just heartwarming. Perfect. I'm speechless, you know,
that is how books should end. And I don't wanna spoil to anyone, but please... the most feels were about TID!
#7 PAPER TOWNS BY JOHN GREEN
I posted a full review in the last post here! I gave it 4.5 of 5 stars.
And that's all for this month (: See you soon with my July TBR.

My TOP 3 SciFi books.
Hello guyssss!
Since I'm very busy with my finals I have to make short appearances here. (I'm so sorry!)
But why, don't worry, here I am with a lovely new/old tag!
1: Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
2: Alienated by Melissa Landers
Post-apocaliptic. Bad aliens. Good aliens. Survivors. Unexpected romance. Fight for life. Fight for the last humanity that's left.

Science fiction is a genre of fiction dealing with imaginative content such as futuristic settings, futuristic science and technology, space travel, time travel, faster than light travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life. [Science fiction, Wikipedia.]
"TOP 3 SCI-FI"
I really love every book in the Lux saga and it was very difficult to pick one. It is said that hot and beautiful are always followed by bitchyness. And here we are in front of a goddamn beautiful and damned alien. Daemon Black is the new neighbor of Katy, our lovely book vlogger protagonist. It is easy to relate with her, because she's a normal teenager, strong and stubborn and, as I said before, she is a booklover!!!! For everyone who love alien, romance and character developments, this is the perfect book for you.
2: Alienated by Melissa Landers
Now, everybody please take a minute to look at this AWESOME cover! Beside that, this book was THE FEELS! Have you loved the CW program "StarCrossed"? Are you sad because it's over? Don't worry, huns! You can have more (and in my very honest opinion: YOU CAN HAVE BETTER). This is the story of Cara, an intelligent and fierce valedictorian of Midtown High School. She's been chosen to host a particular student, a L'heir. Yeah, aliens are here! Among us. This book talks about friendship and love, war, prejudices and intolerance.
3: The Fitfh Wave by Rick Yancey
Post-apocaliptic. Bad aliens. Good aliens. Survivors. Unexpected romance. Fight for life. Fight for the last humanity that's left.
"Amazing" isn't enough to say how lovely, mysterious, incredibly, magnificent is this book.
I loved Cassie for Cassiopea, not Cassandra, nor Cassidy. She has nothing but hope to be reunited with her little brother, and to fight 'till she can. She's so strong even if she's only sixteen.
The author described a world none would survive, these aliens are REALLY BAD AND CRUEL ones. So well written, I really enjoyed getting into this world. You know, I have a fondness with bad guy and Cassie couldn't have chosen better! I DON'T WANNA SPOILER ANYONE, so I must shut up!
