Books I Read in January
I've always loved reading. I was a shy kid, so I always brought a book with me everywhere. I still do actually. You never know when you will get stuck somewhere. And I used to always get stuck in the car with the dog while my mom did errands.
I mostly read ebooks from the library on my ipad. I love 'real' paper books, but it's just not practical when we live in a tiny flat. And ebooks are so good for travelling! I can't wait to have a proper bookshelf in my house one day. We always joke that Tj wants the walk-in closet, and I would love a home library.
I've decided Friday posts will be book related. I usually read during my commute, while watching TV, and before bed. But when I'm into a good book all I want to do is keep reading until I find out what happens. I read really fast, and usually forget what the book was about by the time I've moved onto the next one. That's why I've started keeping a list of books I've read and rating them. There's nothing worse than getting halfway through a book before realising I've already read it.
Here are the books I've read in January 2018:
- In the Midst of Winter by Isabel Allende
- Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng
- The Midnight Line by Lee Child
- The Fifth Letter by Nicole Moriarty
- One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus (YA)
- The Marriage Lie by Kimberly Belle
- Always by Sarah Jio
- There's Someone Inside Your House by Stephanie Perkins (YA)
- Before the Fall by Noah Hawley
- The Safest Lies by Megan Miranda (YA)
- Lucky in Love by Kasie West (YA)
- Truly Devious by Maureen Johnson (YA)
- Insidious Intent by Val McDermid
There are a few Young Adult books on there that I enjoy because they are nice, quick reads. There are also a few books that are part of series that I'm into.
Top recommendations this month: Little Fires Everywhere and Before the Fall.
Least favourite: Always
