Hi all! And it’s already June… LOOKS LIKE WE MADE IT! Somehow 😉 It’s a bit of an annual tradition for me to do this tag, so I don’t need an invitation (aka I wasn’t tagged) I’m just gonna go for it!
BEST BOOK YOU’VE READ YET IN 2020
There are quite a few contenders, but I have to go for the simply *exquisite* Ten Thousand Doors of January
BEST SEQUEL YOU’VE READ SO FAR IN 2020
Supernova was such a satisfying conclusion! My review’s coming soon 😊
NEW RELEASE YOU HAVEN’T READ YET BUT WANT TO
I’m going with Aurora Burning because I loved the first ones and I *need* the next instalment!
MOST ANTICIPATED RELEASE FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE YEAR
The Invisible Life of Addie Larue just sounds so incredible! (and let’s be real, I’m a fan of Schwab’s writing, so it’s a must-read for me)
BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT
Queen of Ruin– I just wanted to like this so much more than I did. And it’s the kind of book that I like even less when I think about it
BIGGEST SURPRISE
For pure enjoyment, I have to go with the Diviners series.
FAVOURITE NEW AUTHOR
Patricia McKillip!
NEWEST FICTIONAL CRUSH
Honestly don’t have one, so I’m just gonna plug a (sort of romantic) book I really enjoyed: Enchantment of Ravens
NEWEST FAVOURITE CHARACTER
Emony from With the Fire on High– she just felt so realistic and likeable to me.
BOOK THAT MADE YOU CRY
I don’t think any book has made me cry (which is a bit of a change) but Wild Swans seriously moved me.
BOOK THAT MADE YOU HAPPY
Bookish and the Beast just MADE ME SO HAPPY!!!
FAVOURITE BOOK TO FILM ADAPTATION
Hmm I think the only one I’ve watched is PS I Still Love You and it was cute (plus I preferred it to the book tbh).
MOST BEAUTIFUL BOOK YOU’VE BOUGHT THIS YEAR
Buying books? That’s a thing you can do?! LOL! Seriously though, I’ve not bought any books since lockdown and the ones I have got aren’t exactly beautiful- so I’m just gonna go with another anticipated release:
(that also happens to look so pretty!!!)
WHAT BOOKS DO YOU NEED TO READ BY THE END OF THE YEAR
I’m being really chill about what I read right now, cos I just think mood reading is the way to go in this (crazy) year. But it’d be nice if I finally read:
Since this is an old one, I’m not tagging anyone specific- just feel free to do it if you like! What I wanna know is what’s your favourite book so far this year? And what are you most looking forward to? Let me know in the comments!
