My year 2017 in Books

Wow! Surpassed my reading challenge of 55 this year! On my 57th book now. (List will be updated in Jan 2018) Tempted to aim for 6o in 2018 but not too sure if it's feasible.

A good year of reading and had a few new authors added to my list. Kendra Elliot, Kate Kessler, Allison Leotta, Alafair Burke and Nancy Bush.

Christmas themed book

My Year 2016 in Books

Not the most updated list as there are still 3 weeks left in December and I'm aiming to complete 50 books for 2016 :) Total 47 books read and it is a nice way to visualise it.. lots of thrillers as usual and knowing myself, I tend to read all books by one author once I've discovered someone new and I MUST plough through the entire book list by that author!

Mary Burton and Andrea Kane were a nice discovery and Karen Rose and Allison Brennan new releases are my go to fix. The completed list will be posted at end of the year.
