November TBR (2020)

 Hey guys, this is Abi here, 

And today I'm back with my November TBR (2020)! Because, no matter how shit life is at the moment, I've still got reading to finish. So here's this month's list. 

Enjoy! 


1. The rest of the Saga volumes, by Brian V. Kaughan and Fiona Staples

(Volumes 6,7,8,9)

I made it to halfway through last month (or halfway through the volumes that are currently out anyway) so I'm hoping to get up to date this month. I've heard there's a time jump after volume five, so I'm excited to see where volume six picks up, and what's in store for Hazel, Helena and Marko. I'm also desperately hoping that Brian and Fiona don't take too much of an extended hiatus, because I don't think I'll survive if volume 9 ends on a cliff-hanger! 

2. The Nevernight Chronicle trilogy, by Jay Kristoff 

(Nevernight, Godsgrave & Darkdawn)

 
Aside from Saga, The Nevernight Chronicle trilogy is the last series left to pick up! Nearly there, but I would like to finish the whole trilogy before December because, although I like reading one book a month, marathoning a trilogy certainly gets through it quicker, and it means I can digest it all at once. I don't know much about Nevernight, but I know that's it's a book about Mia, a girl at an assassin school, whose one goal is to reap revenge on the people who ruined her life. I know it's dark and violent, and even though Halloween is over, I'm anxious to sink my teeth into this trilogy. 

3. The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue (Montague Siblings #1), by Mackenzie Lee 

Once again, I was stuck for options, and I thought "Why not put on the last remaining audiobook I got on Audible and try to read it?", so here I am, adding it! It worked with Hunted
That is why, I'm sticking this book on here, because it's been sitting in my Audible account since 2018 and it's high time I started it. The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue is an LGBT historical fiction novel as far as I'm aware, and that's all I know or need to know. The hype for The Gentleman's Guide was huge around the time it came out, and I'm excited to see why everyone was so excited about it. 

4. Starsight (Skyward #2), by Brandon Sanderson 

I've been awaiting the sequel to Skyward to come out in paperback for a very long time, and when I took one last trip down to Waterstones before Lockdown 2, I saw this and knew I had to get it. I'll be reading this first, and due to the comments I've seen on it's Goodreads page, it's just as amazing as the first one! If you didn't know, Skyward (the first book), is about Spensa, whose dream is to take to the skies as a pilot, to fight down the krell that have been fighting humanity for the last however many years. But because her father turned coward and flew from battle, when she was just a child, she won't even get the chance to enrol in flying school. Until the krell double their attacks. Will Spensa finally be given the chance to prove she's not a coward like her father? Or is cowardice genetic? 
I enjoyed Skyward so much it'll likely be on my favourite books for the year, and I'm expecting the sequel to be the very same. Every Sanderson book I've picked up (which isn't many admittedly, but I'm hoping to change that) I've absolutely devoured and I can't wait to delve back into Spensa's world once more. 

Okay! That's my TBR for the month of November. I wanted to add more, I really did, but I genuinely couldn't think of any (and even though I only have four parts in this TBR, it technically counts for 5 books and 4 graphic novels.) 
But let me know what you plan to read this month and we can talk about it in the comments! 
I hope you have a wonderful day and I'll see you all soon! 
Byeeeee!

  1. Nevernight is on my TBR as well! I can't say I am going to try and read the whole thing yet because who knows if I will enjoy it enough for that but I have had the first one on my bookshelf for over a year now and I need to finally pick it up.

    1. I hope you enjoy it! Honestly, I don't know whether I'll enjoy the first one enough to continue with the rest of the trilogy, but I've heard amazing things, so I hope so.
