So this month I really want to get my read on. I read quite a few books last month, but since I am taking part in the Goodreads Reading Challenge and I am 4 books behind, I thought I better get myself into gear. The end of the year is approaching quite fast and I’m on 23 out of 40 books, uh oh.
So this month I plan to read (and why):
*bare in mind I'm linking you to the paperback copies of the books, but in most cases I have purchased them for the Kindle.
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
This book was everywhere and at work we have a mini library where you can just borrow a book and that’s what I did. Is it bad if I say I read the back and I know what happens? I just couldn’t stand the suspense especially because I haven’t actually read a single review about the book. I know I'm naughty but I’ll still read it, even though it does seem booooring.
52 Small Changes: One Year to a Happier, Healthier You by Brett Blumenthal
You might recall the name from this post here (still haven’t finished that book). I picked this up in a Kindle Daily Deal (shocking) and thought ‘yeah I could with being happier and healthier’. You are suppose to read it week by week, but nah I’m reading it all in one go to see if I can then do things week by week. Logic, what logic?
The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson
Just one of those books you see everywhere. I had a girl recommend it to me earlier in the year, so I when it popped up on the Daily Deals I was like ‘hell yeah!’
Human Remains by Elizabeth Haynes
The Kindle Daily Deals got me again! I like to read crime novels every now and then and after reading the synopsis of this I thought it was time to dip my toes into the world of crime books once again.
Recommendation: I will leave you with a book I read in July/August that I absolutely adored. We were Liars by E. Lockhart. You will not regret this. I can’t tell you anything without ruining the story for you, but trust me when I say you will love it! It’s not a long read either, so go and pick it up!
Have you read anything you’ve loved recently? Let me know because I am forever adding books to my list!
I think we have all been guilty of reading the back to see what happens at some point haha! I did enjoy Gone Girl although I found it ended really abruptly!
