Asdfghshshsbsjs! I am just speechless at how amazing this book was and I am so so excited to start reading the second book! For me, Sleeping Giants is like a hidden gem. I didn’t really know what to expect going into it. All I knew was that the cover was pretty and it was about a scientist who discovers something strange. It sounded pretty good to me! …
Netflix’s 3% is the first original series from Brazil. 3% follows the beginning of The Process, as the 20-year-olds striving to reach the promised land known as the Offshore, sign up for a series of difficult physical, mental and social challenges which aim primarily to reduce their numbers. The main goal of The Process is to dwindle the hundreds of candidates down to 3%, since only 3% are able to be sent to the Offshore. …
Ever since I was a child, I have been obsessed with space and even now, at the age of 21, I still have dreams about going to Mars – alas, I will never be able to afford that.

But there was something… Something about this book that made me want to read til the very end so that has to be worth something, right? …
After reading the much-loved Rebel of the Sands, Traitor to the Throne jumps ahead nearly a year to when the Rebellion has gained much more ground and Amani is fighting for what she believes in. I feel like this book suffered the second-book-syndrome. That’s not to say it was rubbish (because it really wasn’t!) it just wasn’t as good as the first one – hence the four stars instead of the five. …
Upon receiving this book, and after reading the synopsis, this was the kind of book that sounded like something I would absolutely love: magic, family, and adventures. It seemed like the perfect read and I couldn’t wait to delve into it. …
