Hello! I can’t believe that it’s already the last day of May, but I’m so excited for June. I’m going to finish 8th grade in a couple weeks (which means I’ll start high school in the fall, which I’m not at all ready for), and I’m really excited for summer. There are a ton of amazing books coming out in June, and I am incredibly lucky to have been able to read an advance copy of one, Instructions for Dancing, by Nicola Yoon. I read Nicola Yoon’s other two books years ago, and was thrilled to find out that there was another coming out! Instructions for Dancing is an really wonderful book, and I’m very excited to share my thoughts on it!

Hello! I hope that the end of May is going well for you. For me it feels like the year is really flying by, and I can’t believe that it’s already almost June! Because June is Pride month, I have made a list of eleven books with LGBTQ+ characters and representation that I’m planning on reading! A couple are rereads, but most are new to me, although I’ve heard amazing things about every single one. I have a lot of different books, from contemporary to fantasy to even a graphic novel, and I’m going to do my best to read them all in the next month!

I’ve had An Ember in the Ashes on my TBR for a very long time, and I only recently read it, but I loved it so much!! I can’t beleive it took me so long to get to it, but I’m so glad I did, because it is a really amazing book.
I don’t have much else to say for the introduction of this post, so I’m going to get right into what I loved about An Ember in the Ashes, by Sabaa Tahir!

I got my first covid vaccine on Saturday, and I was so tired for the rest of the day and most of Sunday that I really didn’t have then energy to post. I’m really grateful I was able to get my shot though, and it was so exciting to see that the Pfizer vaccine was approved for ages 12-15. The symptoms I had were a headache, being very tired, and my arm was pretty sore, but after a little over a day I felt pretty much better.
Anyways, if you haven’t already, and you’re able to where you live, you should go get your covid vaccine.
So, onto the post! On April 23rd, the Netflix show Shadow and Bone was released, which is the adaptation of Leigh Bardugo’s YA fantasy Shadow and Bone. The show is an adaptation of the first book in the Shadow and Bone trilogy, and also takes characters from the duology set in the same world, Six of Crows.
This is the first of a few posts I have planned about the Shadow and Bone, and I’m really excited to share this one!! I thought I’d start by writing about some of the things that I loved in the adaptation, so that’s what the post is about.
I also made this post as spoiler free as possible. I have mentioned characters that appear in the show from the books, as well as a few minor details mentioned in the trailer, but other than that, there is nothing.
