Monthly Wrap Ups

December Wrap Up!

Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all having a good day today. It is time for the final wrap up of the year, and what a reading year it has been. I was struggling to find time in most of the months but since October I have been enjoying my reading again, and picking up brilliant books too.

Here is what I read in December,

From my TBR:

  • A Lively Midwinter Murder by Katy Watson – I did read this and a review is coming on the 20th December
  • Everyone this Christmas Has A Secret by Benjamin Stevenson – I read this
  • The Mistletoe Mystery by Nita Prose – I did read this
  • Hercule Poirot’s Silent Night by Sophie Hannah – I read this
  • Murder on the Dance Floor by Helena Dixon – I also read this

Which means…. I completed my TBR this month! I only had five specific books that were christmas themed that I wanted to read and I am very happy that I got the chance to read them all this month. Not only that but I also got to read some books outside my TBR, which were:

  • Do Your Worst by Rosie Danan – review coming on the 13th December
  • A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J Maas – I know, I FINALLY read this book and yes, I absolutely loved it. So much so that I went and bought the complete hardback series immediately after I finished it..
  • Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody – At the time of writing this post I am currently reading this book and I will finish it before the end of December
  • Shadowscent by P M Freestone – I started this book and I have decided to soft DNF it, I still want to try it again but what I read wasn’t keeping my interest so I decided to leave it for later

So, in December I read 9 books – so far at least, as I am writing this it is the 15th December so it is likely I will read something else this month too, but right now I’m not sure what book that will be.

What did you read in December?

December TBR!

Happy Friday bookish people! How are you all doing today? It is December, the final month of 2024, and I am excited to get stuck into reading the christmassy books that I have, admittedly I don’t have very many but the ones I have, I plan on reading.

December for me is looking like it will be a busy month, my diary is already getting pretty full so hopefully I will still have some time to read.

What are you planning to read in December? Any special plans for Christmas?
