 Hello!

2020 is finally nearly over so it's time to look back over my year of reading with the information taken from Goodreads.

The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton was my longest book of the year at 576 pages and My Soul to Lose by Rachel Vincent was my shortest book at only 60 pages.

My Top 10 Books of 2020!

 Hello!

We are nearing the end of 2020 (FINALLY) so it is time for my favourite books of the year. Some are books that have been released this year and some have been on my TBR for ages! I read 75 books this year so I had a lot to choose from.


1. The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton


A murder on the high seas. A detective duo. A demon who may or may not exist.
This book has everything you are looking for in a crime/ mystery novel. I was intrigued from the very beginning and it had the essence of a Sherlock Holmes case which keeps your attention for the whole book as you need to find out what is really going on.

Here is how I did.

As shown in my last blog post these were my start stats:

Horror October!

 Hello!

Last year I dedicated the whole month of October to reading scary books and I am doing the same thing this month! We are already halfway through the month so here is what I have already read and what I thought of them:


1. The Malan Witch by Catherine Cavendish - 3*


This is a novella about a woman who needs some time away from home after her husband has died and so stays in her sister's holiday cottage in a nice little village. However it soon becomes obvious that there is something wrong with the cottage which traces back many years to when 2 witches lived on the same land. It was a good story but the ending seemed to be a bit abrupt and was a little bit confusing.
