Chapters Outting June 2018


I've been really digging Chapters featured books sections, I feel like they're trying to mimic the merchandising strategy of the New York Amazon Book Store. Soooooo much different than Walmarts Books section lol

First of all I love the top Staff Picks for Comics. I typically don't look through the comics section but featured here was nice.

The Creative Habit: Learn It and Use It for Life
by Twyla Tharp sounds really interesting to keep the creative mind humming.


The Wolf (Under the Northern Sky #1) by Leo Carew looks like it has potential. 

Uprooted by Naomi Novik looks really really good!

That's all folks <3

Walmart Outting June 2018

I rarely shop for books at Walmart but I was pleasantly surprised at their YA Recommended Reads end cap... alas most of these books are below a 4/5 rating on Goodreads...

FTW Added to TBR:

- Always and Forever By: Jenny Han series (but I already added this series to my TBR after my Chapters outting...)

Above 4/5 on Goodreads but still MEH...

- Neanderthal Opens the Door to the Universe
- Save the Date

All in all Walmart really needs to step up their Recommended Reads selection...

Bookstore Outting June 2018

One of my most favourite things to do is to walk around Chapters and find endless amounts of books to add to my never ending TBR list heh... 

Bottom right Tempest and Slaughter look like a really good book!!! But I'm going to read Alanna: The First Adventure By: Tamora Pierce first because I like to read everything in proper order. But wow Alanna was published in 1983 I have a lot of catching up to do...



The Hazel Wood By: Melissa Albert has such a beautiful cover omgz! The story sound cool too - mysterious, fairy-tale, dark, super-natural.
Everless By: Sara Holland - time is currency. Sold.

The Last Namsara By: Kristen Ciccarelli - Dragons and Dragonslayers. This is the riskiest book to add to the TBR list as there's not many reviews, but will give it a fair shot.
There's a Chapters Book Club?! Awesome! Out of the three books to read I'm going to read Hopeless By: Colleen Hoover. lol Hoover remind me of Raph Wiggum from The Simpsons "Miss Hoover... I ate my red crayon... 'cause the blue one's make me sick..." bahahahaha

The book on the top right looks interesting, Children of Blood and Bone. Magic, Princes and Princesses, Souls... I'm sold lol I hear it's a huge book though.

Second row from the bottom A List of Cages By: Robin Roe seems decent. An ADHD kid in highschool reunites with his foster brother and tries to help him but it could cost them both their lives. Emotional rollercoaster much? Sign me up I suppose lol

They both Die in the End By: - Oh boy I can feel the tears dripping down my face already, we all know this one's going to be a tear jerker just by the title lol. The book takes place on one unforgettable day...

Ugh Heartless By: Marissa Meyer - I did not enjoy this book at all WHY IS IT HERE!? WHY OH WHY!?

Diminished By: Kaitlin Sage Patterson - A rare few are singleborn in each generation, and therefore given the right to rule by the gods and goddesses. When one twin dies, the other usually follows, unable to face the world without their other half. Those who survive are considered diminished. INTERESTING. Another risky time investment as there's literally only 200 reviews on Goodreads.

Also decided to add To All the Boys I've Loved Before series and Shattered Realms series.
