Reading Rush 2020 TBR!

The Reading Rush starts tomorrow for me and I am so excited! Here is the link for the challenges. It is hosted by Ariel and Raeleen  and you can go on their website and earn badges for each challenge completed. Here is my TBR for the challenges. I only have 4 books because I don't think I will be able to get through more than that in a week. 1. Read a book with a cover that matches the colour of your birth stone. My birthstone is Citrine so the cover needs to be yellow. I picked Daughter of the Pirate King by Patricia Levenseller. 2. Read a book that starts with the word “The”. I picked The Places I've Cried in Public by Holly Bourne as it has been on my to read list for a while and I meant to read it last month but ran out of time. 3. Read a book that inspired a movie you’ve already seen. This was actually one of the harder challenges for me as I almost always read the book first but then I remembered I have never read Peter Pan by J M Barrie. 4. Read the first bo...

Best books of 2019 and 2020 Reading Goals

What a great reading year I had in 2019 and I even discovered so many new favourite books. I started a bunch of new series and managed to finish some that I had started in previous years. Here is my list of the best books I read in 2019. This does not mean that they were published in 2019, just that I read them in 2019. These are not in any kind of order. Throne of Glass - Sarah J Maas Foolish Hearts - Emma Mills The Wicked King - Holly Black Ruin and Rising - Leigh Bardugo Finale - Stephanie Garber Restore Me - Tahereh Mafi Aurora Rising - Jay Kristoff & Amie Kaufman Aristotle & Dante discover the secrets of the universe - Benjamin Alire Saenz Somewhere Only We Know - Maurene Goo Hunting Prince Dracula - Kerri Maniscalco Dumplin - Julie Murphy Princess in the Spotlight - Meg Cabot I managed to finish almost all my reading goals of 2019 so I stuck with similar goals for 2020.

2018 Reading Goals!

So after a fantastic year of reading in 2017 I have finally decided on my reading goals for 2018. I only have 2 goals for 2017 but they are BIG ones. Goal number one is to read 150 books! I usually only challenge myself to read 100 books but I have increased it to 150 because of goal number two. Goal number two is to read all the books on the BBC 6 book challenge which can be found here . This challenge states that the BBC believes that people have only read 6 books on this list. There are 100 books on the list. I have already read half the books on this list and I don't plan on reading the bible so there is a total of 49 books remaining but since 2 of the listed books are series it really equates to 57 books. There are a lot of new releases I am looking forward to next year hence why I upped my reading challenge to 150 as I did not want my reading list to just be books on the BBC list. So that's it! My reading goals for 2018! What are your goals?
