HI GUYS!
I got a lot of work
to do for uni this month, but apparently, I survived! I should reward myself by
buying more books. On a sadder note, I live in Paris and I guess you’ve all
heard about the attacks… I was at my parents’ house for the week-end, and it
was really depressing getting back there. The atmosphere is heavy and I can’t
entirely feel secure these days, but it will be better. Let’s talk about
happier thoughts, like books!

I also read a lot of
books for my history class, but I won’t list them for you, it’s less interesting.
I'm really happy that I got to read all the new releases I was excited for in November, it was my main goal for the month. I had a good reading month, I enjoyed most of the books I've read. However, I DNF-ed Alex Bracken's debut novel - released in 2010 - because even if the world was interesting, it felt like books I've read before... She sure grew up as a writer since this book and I'm still really excited for Passenger! I immediatly picked up Through the Dark - The Darkest Minds novellas - because I wanted to love her books again... And I did! The novellas had a real point and I loved reading more from this world.

November 1st,
I was in Rotterdam for the end of my holiday, but I think I already talked about
it in my October Wrap-Up. November 11th, I had a holiday, I walked
around in Paris, because I don’t do that that much – and I’ve lived there for
two years. I went to Champs-Elysees when I saw the Republican Guard because of
the ceremony of the day. Then, I went to WHSmith, an English bookstore rue de
Rivoli when I got Winter by Marissa Meyer (yay). I went to an exhibition about
a painter of the 18th century (one of my favourite time periods), it
was really interesting. After that, I got back him by walking near the Seine,
it was so beautiful, but it was quite far from home so… My feet hurt so badly.
On Saturday 14th,
I went to a premiere for an animated movie based on the video game Dofus. The
movie was made by a French studio not far from home, I’m so happy about it! The
movie was great because FANTASY, we
even got goodies; it was so nice of the team.

I mostly had a quiet month for the rest of November. I went to my grandmother’s home for the weekend
two weeks ago. She lives near the sea but it was SO COLD. I saw it but… In the car! I went to a French book even
there and bought books for my family (and two for myself, what happened, I’m
gonna read something in French?).
For me, this month was SO LONG and I'm happy it's over, because it's December, which means Christmas isn't that far away. I also need to finish buying Christmas presents!
