Well it is the last day of 2018! So what bookish things have I done in a year?
I set up this blog and have now been blogging for just over two months and I love it! I’m reading more books and blogs and discovering so many new books I would never have dreamed of reading before. Plus I’m talking about books on a daily basis, what is not to like?
I have read more books in a year than I have ever read before, 74 in total and I have enjoyed it immensely.
I have smashed my Goodreads reading challenge, my aim was only 60! Still undecided what 2019’s should be.
I have discovered some new authors I have never read before but definitely want to read more of:-
Neil Gaiman
Rosamunde Pilcher
Veronica Henry
Jeffrey Archer

Favourite Quote:-
“A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say.”

I believe that is a wrap.
I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year’s Eve whether it is partying, reading, sleeping or whatever you prefer.
See you in 2019.
