Wrap-Up | What I Read in September 2024

Hello friends!

I hope you’re all doing well! Today I’m sharing with you all the books I read in September – but have no fear, it’s a small list today. In September I took a longer vacation for a couple of weeks, so I almost didn’t read during that time. I don’t know why, but I rarely read when I have time off – how weird is that? Well, actually I do know why: I read all year round, but when I’m on vacation I want to spend my time doing things I usually don’t do… so in reality there’s little time for reading!

So in conclusion, that’s why I read so little in the past month! Should we let’s take a look at the books? Let’s go!

This is the list I have to share with you today! Yup, pretty short as you can see. Let’s take a closer look:

1. Death Note, Vol. 6 by Tsugumi Ohba: 3.5/5⭐

I’m officially half way through the series! So far I’m enjoying it a lot. This manga has a really interesting dynamic between the two main characters: it’s like you’re watching a game of ping pong – always looking back and forth at the oponents and how they respond to each strike! It’s been very entertaining and I’m curious to see what’s next!

Synopsis

“Although they’ve collected plenty of evidence tying the seven Yotsuba members to the newest Kira, Light, L and the rest of the task force are no closer to discovering which one actually possesses the Death Note. Desperate for some headway, L recruits Misa to infiltrate the group and feed them information calculated to bring Kira into the open. But the Shinigami Rem reveals to Misa who the Kiras really are, and, armed with this knowledge, Misa will do anything to help Light. But what will that mean for L…?”

2. The Summer of Broken Rules by K.L. Walther: 3/5⭐

Yeah, I don’t know about this one? I was expecting this to be less boring if I’m being honest. I also didn’t care about the game the family was playing because it felt a little silly and out of place. At the end of the day, I didn’t love it but it’s not the worst book ever. I personally wouldn’t recommend it because there are better books out there that are more entertaining and engaging.

Synopsis

“Meredith Fox has been going to Martha’s Vineyard for the summer as long as she can remember. But this summer is the first one back since the death of Meredith’s sister. It will all be overwhelming, but even more since since the entire extended family will be together for her cousin’s big wedding.
Unfortunately, Meredith’s longtime boyfriend unexpectedly dumped her two weeks before the wedding, leaving her dateless. Luckily, she has the perfect distraction. Her family has a tradition of playing the ultimate game of Assassin every summer, and this year it will take place during the week of wedding festivities.
But her target just happens to be a very cute groomsman. She’s determined to not let herself get distracted, not let herself be lost in another doomed relationship. But as the week progresses, she can’t help falling for him, which may cost her not only the game, but also her heart.
Meredith’s family’s annual game of assassin at Martha’s Vineyard during a summer wedding is the perfect chance to honor her sister’s legacy, and finally join the world again. But when she forms an alliance with a cute groomsman, she’s at risk of losing both the game… and her heart.”

As usual, I’ll be posting the reviews for these books soon.
