As the New Year approaches, this last year is coming to a close. It is almost hard to believe it has been a year already since last New Years Eve. I have decided to combine my December and 2016 wrap-up together because I don’t want to have five different posts coming out in the next two days and I am also extremely lazy.
So, to start with my December wrap up I think congratulations are in order to yours truly because I actually finished and went above and beyond my reading goal for this month. Not only did I read the two books I had planned to read this month but I also read four other books. That means 6 books total. And it may seem like I am tooting my own horn and I really am but I am very impressed with myself for reading this much this month. I would love to continue that streak but I probably won’t. Anyways so these are the books I read this month:
- The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon
- It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
- The Problem With Forever by Jennifer L. Armentrout
- Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas
- The Fever Code by James Dashner
- The Crown of Midnight by Sarah J Maas
Click on the titles to go read my reviews on these stories which all of them were AMAZING. I found them to be really great reads and a few of them have made it onto my top reads of 2016 that will be listed later.
Apart from what I have read this month, I have also bought three books. My Book Buy of December has only one of the books I bought which I got in the mail a day ago and it was a little Christmas present for myself. After Christmas, I bought two books with my Christmas money that I have wanted since I went to Target and saw them on the shelf. the books I bought this month are:
- Passenger by Alexandra Bracken
- Illuminae by Anna Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
- Gemina by Anna Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
I am super excited to read them and to be able to own those beautiful books.
Now for the moment you have all been waiting for…or haven’t been waiting for…if it isn’t why are you even reading this?..
My 2016 Wrap-Up
I read 37 books this year and my goal was 30 books so I surpassed my goal. I am super happy I achieved that because I haven’t read very much the past few years so this year has been a changing point for me. I really have this blog to thank which I started on August 26th this year. This blog has mad eme want to write reviews and for that, I need to read. I am excited to see how many I read next year. If you want to see every book I read this year click here to see my reading challenge on Goodreads. I don’t have blog posts for all of my favorite books so I will link all these to their Goodreads.
My favorite books of 2016 are:
- The Career of Evil by Robert Galbraith
- Don’t Look Back by Jennifer L Armentrout
- The House on Mango Street
- Carry On by Rainbow Rowell
- Harry Potter and the Cursed Child by J.K Rowling & John Tiffany & Jack Thorne
- Doon by Carey Corp & Lorie Langdon
- The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon
- It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
- The Problem With Forever by Jennifer L Armentrout
- Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas
- Crown of Midnight by Sarah J Maas
These books were flipping amazing and you can find all but the first four reviewed in my blog. I seriously loved these books. I am very happy with how my reading year turned out.
Now with the end of this post comes the end of 2016 for this blog. This shall be my last blog post of 2016 and I am excited to continue with this blog into the next year. I think this year has been a good year for me. I have a lot of good memories from this year and I hope to make much more in 2017. So with that, I bid adieu to 2016 and bonjour to the New Year.
Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!<3
