Hi all!
Hope everyone’s doing well! Today, I’m going to be sharing a new bookshelf tour! I shared one last year but since then I’ve built a floating wall shelf from my room and rearranged my main bookshelf, so I thought it was about time I did a new one!
Below is a list of all the books I own. I’m going to give mini reviews for most of the books I’ve read!

Bookshelf
Usually I display my books like the photo on the left. All of the books I still have to read are displayed backwards but for this bookshelf tour I turned them around the correct way so everyone can see the books I own (which is frustrating me haha).

Shelf #1

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare ★★★★★
- The first book in The Infernal Devices is beautiful and haunting, and I immediately fell in love with the characters when I read it.
Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare ★★★★★
- This is the first book I’ve read with a love triangle where I didn’t ship the main character with the obvious love interest and preferred the character you know she’s never going to end up with.
Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare ★★★★★
- This was a great ending that managed to successfully pull off the love triangle in a way I’ve never seen before.
Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare ★★★★★
- I’d die for Julian Blackthorn and his million children.
Lord of Shadows by Cassandra Clare ★★★★★
- You’re just going to end the book like that? On a cliffhanger? With two deaths? I hate you.
Queen of Air and Darkness by Cassandra Clare ★★★★
- Despite the fact that I laughed at the ridiculousness of the ending, all of Part 2 was iconic and I can’t wait for The Wicked Powers now.
Chain of Gold by Cassandra Clare ★★★★
- I’m not that interested in Tessa and Will’s children but this was still a really fun and interesting addition to the Shadowhunter universe.
City of Bones 10 Year Anniversary Edition by Cassandra Clare
Clockwork Angel 10 Year Anniversary Edition by Cassandra Clare
Crescent City: House of Blood and Earth by Sarah J. Maas
The Mercies by Kiran Millwood Hargrave ★★★★★
- I originally rated this book 4 stars but then I couldn’t stop thinking about it for like a week after so I bumped it up to 5 stars. I loved everything about it, it’s so haunting and beautiful.
Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson
The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon ★★★★
- I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. It’s about ghosts and beings from another universe — it’s fantastic.
The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon
The Ruin of Kings by Jenn Lyons ★★★★★
- That Lady Gaga meme where she’s saying ‘iconic, brilliant, beautiful, perfection’, etc, because that’s how I feel about this book! It’s confusing and the plot is out of this world complex. I love it.
The Name of All Things by Jenn Lyons ★★★★.5
- A worthy sequel to The Ruin of Kings about what Janel was doing during the first book. A wild ride from start to finish.
Eggshell Skull by Bri Lee
Circe by Madeline Miller ★★★★★
- This book is so beautiful, I can’t get over it. Miller’s writing is stunning and I wish I could write like her.
Luck in the Shadows by Lynn Flewelling ★★★★★
- This book is one of the most fun adventure novels I’ve come across!
Stalking Darkness by Lynn Flewelling ★★★★★
- The romance in this series finally starts developing in this book and all I can say is: yes.
Traitor’s Moon by Lynn Flewelling ★★★★
- A new adventure for Alec and Seregil that both broke my heart and warmed it.
Shadows Return by Lynn Flewelling
The White Road by Lynn Flewelling
Casket of Souls by Lynn Flewelling
Shards of Time by Lynn Flewelling
