November Wrap-Up

I am now officially done with high school, on a very long break before university in March, and you'd think I'd be way ahead on the blog, reading constantly, but there is just so much inane stuff to do that I'm laziest when I have the most time. So none of my reviews this month follow my usual strict schedule, but at least there are almost as many as usual.

But anyway, here's this month's wrap-up:
_________________________________________

This month for the Debut Author Challenge, I read and reviewed Legend by Marie Lu. It was released on the 29th, and my review is linked below.
