End of Year Book Tag 2024!

Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all having a good day today. Today I am bringing you the End of Year Book Tag, it is never too early for this. I found this tag on Twirling Book Princess’s Blog.

What would be your answers to these questions? Let me know down in the comments.

  1. Are there any books you started this year you need to finish? I can instantly think of one, which is I Hope You’re Listening by Tom Ryan, I need to read this one to write about it in my PhD. I started it earlier in the year and got about 100 pages in, but it talks about the abduction of a child and I wasn’t in the right mindset for it so I couldn’t continue but I need to get this one read by the end of 2024.
  2. Do you have an autumnal book to transition to the end of the year? Not an autumnal book but I love reading complex fantasy and cosy mysteries around this time of year and I have got a few of those to choose from luckily.
  3. Is there a new release you are still waiting for? I am literally waiting in today to get my copy of Spectacular by Stephanie Garber, I can’t wait to read this and be back in the world of Caraval.
  4. What are three books you want to read by the end of the year? My top three to read at the moment are: Powerless by Lauren Roberts, Curtain Calls to Murder by Julian Clary and Queen B by Juno Dawson
  5. Is there a book that could still be your favourite? Ooh, I don’t know, my absolute favourite book is the Starless Sea and I don’t think there’s one that can top that but as far as a favourite of the year, I have read some amazing books so far. There are possibly a few books on my November TBR that could top it but I’m not sure on that, at this point I think my favourite of 2024 is between A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid and The King’s Mother by Annie Garthwaite.
  6. Have you already made reading plans for 2025? I have not, I haven’t started thinking about 2025 at all, not just for reading. I should really seeing as it is only a few months away.

End of Year Book Tag!

happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all having a wonderful day today.
Today I am doing the End of Year Book Tag, how would you answer these questions? Let me know in the comments.

Are there any books you started this year that you need to finish?
At least two, but only two I can remember the names of which are A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J Maas, which I wanted to finish but it’s a long book and I wasn’t feeling fantasy right then. The second book is Assistant to the Villain and I didn’t finish this book because I wanted to love it but there wasn’t enough plot in it to keep me captivated and for me personally romance gets boring after 100 or so pages if the plots not there.

Do you have an autumnal book to transition into the end of the year?
I would have to say not really I tend to read a lot of mysteries towards the end of the year and I don’t feel they are very autumnal most of the time.

Is there a new release you are still waiting for?
so many! All because I wrote my list of book early September for my mum to use as my Christmas list so I haven’t been able to buy any since then.

Is there a book you think could still shock you and become your favourite of the year?
I am going to say the Murder on the Christmas Express because I love a good murder mystery so we shall see. As I am writing this I am starting this book tonight, fingers crossed.

Have you already started making reading plans for 2023?
Not really, I have my eye on a few books releasing next year and if you’d like to see what those are I am posting a top ten most anticipated releases.

I hope you enjoyed this tag!
