End of year bookshelf

 Hello everyone, Emily here. 
Seeing how the year is almost over i thought i would give you all a look at my bookshelves before christmas. Though i do have about 12 books coming over the next month ill be showing them to you in a book haul later this month. 
My bookshelves are my babies, i had them custom built so the shelves are adjustable to maximise book space and they go from floor to ceiling almost. I'm in the process of getting a third built :)
i have quite a lot of books but to me is just doesn't feel like i have enough yet, so maybe another shelf or two will help with that. 
I have a range of genre on my shelf but YA and paranormal are my favourite, i rearrange them twice a month and its about due to be done as you can see but hopefully ill be fitting in more books by the time i get around to it. 
If you want to hear a review for a particular book just let me know and ill be more than happy to. Ive read every book on those shelves as i keep the ones I'm still reading on my desk so ask away :)

 

So Hi, My names emily, I'm 21 and a mum to a little boy. He's my entire world and his laugh makes the days seem brighter. 

Im a massive book nerd and would spend my days with my nose stuck in a book if i could. I hope to be sharing my book adventures with you so keep checking in because you never know what book ill review next !!!!

About Book

Before Peter Pan belonged to Wendy, he belonged to the girl with the crow feather in her hair. . . .

Fifteen-year-old Tiger Lily doesn't believe in love stories or happy endings. Then she meets the alluring teenage Peter Pan in the forbidden woods of Never land and immediately falls under his spell.

Peter is unlike anyone she's ever known. Impetuous and brave, he both scares and enthralls her. As the leader of the Lost Boys, the most fearsome of Never land's inhabitants, Peter is an unthinkable match for Tiger Lily. Soon, she is risking everything—her family, her future—to be with him. When she is faced with marriage to a terrible man in her own tribe, she must choose between the life she's always known and running away to an uncertain future with Peter.

With enemies threatening to tear them apart, the lovers seem doomed. But it's the arrival of Wendy Darling, an English girl who's everything Tiger Lily is not, that leads Tiger Lily to discover that the most dangerous enemies can live inside even the most loyal and loving heart.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Peaches comes a magical and bewitching story of the romance between a fearless heroine and the boy who wouldn't grow up.

My Thoughts

All in all I loved this book, it was fantastically written that was dark and twisted and sad. Yet ,I loved how it questioned everything I thought I loved and gave me something new to replace it.This book is now in my top 10 favorite books of all time because it did everything a book is meant to do,I cried laughed and just sat in shock when it was over wishing I could go back and relive it for the first time again.After reading it three times I managed to be able to put it down and recommended to those around me (never could because my friends have different tastes in books) so I give it 5 out of 5 stars.Amazing execution,fantastically written and a flawless group of characters we all love yet giving them a real feeling to them.

About Book

Ash, former prince of the Winter Court, gave up everything. His title, his home, even his vow of loyalty. All for a girl… and all for nothing.

Unless he can earn a soul.

To cold, emotionless faery prince Ash, love was a weakness for mortals and fools. His own love had died a horrible death, killing any gentler feelings the Winter prince might have had. Or so he thought.

Then Meghan Chase—a half human, half fey slip of a girl— smashed through his barricades, binding him to her irrevocably with his oath to be her knight. And when all of Faery nearly fell to the Iron fey, she severed their bond to save his life. Meghan is now the Iron Queen, ruler of a realm where no Winter or Summer fey can survive.

With the (unwelcome) company of his archrival, Summer Court prankster Puck, and the infuriating cait sith Grimalkin, Ash begins a journey he is bound to see through to its end— a quest to find a way to honor his solemn vow to stand by Meghan’s side.

To survive in the Iron realm, Ash must have a soul and a mortal body. But the tests he must face to earn these things are impossible. At least, no one has ever passed to tell the tale.

And then Ash learns something that changes everything. A truth that turns reality upside down, challenges his darkest beliefs and shows him that, sometimes, it takes more than courage to make the ultimate sacrifice.

My Thoughts

Wow what a ride this Iron Fey series was. This book is the conclusion to the trilogy and I have to say one of my favorites. Julie is a superb writer and I throughly enjoyed this series.The former prince of the winter court known as Ash goes on a quest with some friends and some who are enemies to find a way to become human and gain a soul in order to be with the one he was Megan Chase who now is the Queen of the Iron fey but, anything Iron would kill Ash to live among there kind its impossible for his kind of fey.Ash and his friends will attempt fate and go through the trials to seek what he wants. The trip is wrought with intrigue danger and you need your whits together just to remain alive.This book was a page turner so much going on.Some loose ends are tied up for you. Ash is faced with confronting his past and wrong deeds hoping he can survive the memories. Making new friendships let go of some old one laying to rest some promises made long ago. Although I so enjoy Ash I have to say that Puck definitely made me laugh much throughout this book with his on-liners innuendos and also him calling Ash Ice boy throughout the whole book had you chuckling and smiling.All the characters were fun to read about this time around a lot of bantering smirking laughter and bonds being forged even thought the lot of them we fighting for their lives I believe they all became true friends despite the deferences and the of being long time enemies of one another.This book is a keeper as is the whole series. Teen books and young adult books are just aren't for kinds anymore they are becoming more popular among the adults to.If you looking for a happily ever after this is a great way to get one and a great series to read recommended to all readers !Can't wait for the next series.....
