It's Monday...What Are You Reading?



It's Monday! What Are You Reading is hosted by Book Journey!


So this week, my reading time will be a bit more, I'm trying to get through my TBR Take Down, but I'm only going to put two on my list at a time till the end of the month.  I might get to read more, but for now let's go with two. 
 Today I'm Reading
The Essence 
Author: Kimberly Derting 
(This book has been on my shelf for awhile and I loved the first so it's time to finally get to this one!)
 
“Danger, dread, mystery, and romance” (Booklist) continue in the second book of The Pledge trilogy, as Charlie’s reign is under siege from the most unusual of enemies. At the luminous conclusion of The Pledge, Charlaina defeated the tyrant Sabara and took her place as Queen of Ludania. But Charlie knows that Sabara has not disappeared: The evil queen’s Essence is fused to Charlie’s psyche, ready to arise at the first sign of weakness. Charlie is not weak, but she’s being pushed to the brink. In addition to suppressing the ever-present influence of Sabara, she’s busy being queen—and battling a growing resistance determined to return Ludania to its discriminatory caste system. Charlie wants to be the same girl Max loves, who Brook trusts, but she’s Your Majesty now, and she feels torn in two. As Charlie journeys to an annual summit to meet with leaders of nearby Queendoms—an event where her ability to understand all languages will be the utmost asset—she is faced with the ultimate betrayal. And the only person she can turn to for help is the evil soul residing within.


This Week I Plan To Read 
(If I finish the book above I will add this one to my list)
 
 Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children 
Author: Ransom Riggs
 
A mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. A strange collection of curious photographs. A horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the children were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a deserted island for good reason. And somehow—impossible though it seems—they may still be alive.



So there you have it, the two books that I plan on reading this week. What are you reading this week?
