In the first chapter Henry, the protagonist, introduces Our Chemical Hearts as kind of a love story. Kind of a love story, it is. It also is a remarkable eloquent book on heartbreak and love in various forms — romantic, friendly, parental, and so on.
Hot off the Press – September 5, 2016
Smash your piggy banks for extra change — September’s filled with many, many new books! Just looking at this week’s releases, I’m excited. I’m also making sure to watch my bank account a little more closely to make sure I don’t buy too many books. Then again, this is my birthday month, so who knows how that will go.
THE HERO OF AGES by Brandon Sanderson
With such a stellar conclusion to the first Mistborn trilogy, The Hero of Ages has firmly established itself as one of my favourite books. The trilogy consistently wowed me and I can’t stop emphasising the sheer brilliance of it. There is no other trilogy in which I rated all three books with 5 stars. That’s why I’m absolutely glad I picked it up despite my initial reservations. Thanks to these books, I have made it my quest to read Brandon Sanderson’s other works. He’s clearly a master plotter dedicated to his craft. There’s something to be said about the complexity of the worlds he’s capable of building.

YA releases are picking up again this week! These books are a great selection to choose from, particularly if Twilight and The Hunger Games are the only two YA books in your repertoire. It’s getting old and tired that every other week articles spring up in news outlets over the inferiority of young adult fiction. Just looking at the YA books that hit the shelves every week, it’s evident that they’re multi-faceted and offer a lot f variety for readers. Now, if you’re here for your weekly update, have fun seeking new reads!
