On 1 January 2019, I started my biggest reading challenge in years – 52 books in 52 weeks. With this, I’ve fallen back in love with reading and decided to start a blog.
Since it was the reading challenge that inspired me, I thought it would be apt to share a list of everything I’ve read this year, along with my Goodreads rating for each book.

I haven’t read any of these! So many of them are on my TBR though! And welcome to Book blogging!

I’m a bit of an all-rounder to be honest.
I’d say my favourites are probably thrillers and historical fiction, but i’m always happy to give any book a chance!

Those are probably the two that I have the least amount of recommendations for 😂
All my Love, Detrick is a historical fiction that I LOVED. It’s about a jew and an aryan boy falling in love during the war. That is a really bad description, but its so good.
Serpent & Dove is a historical fantasy that comes out on Sept 3rd. I loved it.
Sky in the Deep is a historical fantasy that I am currently reading and loving.
