Books, reviews and more…
Hi everyone! It's my first post of 2016 and it's essentially my Goodreads Challenge plan and my reading for the month of January! This year, I've decided to set myself a reading challenge of 75 books! Should be attainable right?! 😉 Last year, I set my target low because I had just had my little…
Book that has been on your to read list the longest... I have quite a few books on my shelves that have been there for quite some time, but I could be here all day listing them. I've gone with one that I've had on my shelves since before we moved house (4 years ago)…
Book you're most embarrassed to say you like/liked... Right, this one is not one of my most favourite picks for this challenge. Why should I admit to be embarrassed about the books I've read? Is there a reason why some books could be deemed embarrassing? In researching this post, i checked some lists and some…
Least favourite plot device employed by way too many books you actually enjoyed otherwise... I'll be honest, I had to Google plot devices as i had no idea what they were. I know what irritates me when I'm reading a book now though 🙂 I am not really a romantic person, I'm sure it's there…
A book you wish you could live in... The wizarding world of Harry Potter! Simples! 🙂 No question! Didn't even have to think about it! I've loved those books since I first read them and I always will. I'm so jealous of anyone who gets to visit the sets at Leavesden or the actual Wizarding…
Most thought provoking book... Yet another one I'm stumped on. What constitutes a thought provoking book? Is it one with a moral lesson to be learned? Is it a book that made you think philosophically or is it a book that you felt spoke to you and your circumstances? Due to the fact that I…
A character who you can relate to the most... This one is a bit more difficult than usual. The majority of books that I read are crime fiction so (thankfully!!!!) I can't really relate to sociopathic killers. The only character I can think of, purely for bookishness, is none other than Hermione Granger. Hermione…
Book that made you cry... I'm not really a crier with books so this one was easy enough to figure out as very few books have made me cry. I can possible count them on one hand to be honest! The book I've chosen for this challenge is: Goodnight Beautiful by Dorothy Koomson Couldn't…
A book that disappointed you... Very easy! I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes! I love manly books! As in guns, explosions, mayhem, action heroes and so on so I was expecting I Am Pilgrim to be along the same lines! I was sorely disappointed! I Am Pilgrim was far too long…
Favourite classic book... This is another of the easier posts on the blog challenge for me to write... Don't judge me for what I'm about to say! I HAVE NEVER READ THE CLASSICS!!!! I know, I know, shame on me and so on! I know what I like to read, and period drama just…
