December Wrap Up and January TBR

With the new month just starting it’s time to Wrap up the past December and plan the TBR for this month.
This month I managed to almost meet my TBR. I read a total of 4 books and started another one.


The first book I completed this month was “Where she went” by Gayle Forman. I really liked this book and I highly recommend the duology, even if I wasn’t a fan of her other series “Just one Day”.

Then I moved to a series I started long ago but never got around to finish it, reading the last two books in the Fallen series by Lauren Kate. This wasn’t the best book series I have ever read about angels and fallen angels, however it was enjoyable and I am happy I finally finish it.



After that It was almost Christmas time and I read a Christmas book: “Dash and Lilly’s book of dares” by Rachel Cohn and David Leviathan . I have wanted to read this book at this time of the year for a long time and I finally got to do it. It was a really cute and recommendable book for this time of the year.


Then I started “Harry Potter and the deadly hallows” by JK Rowling. This series remind me of Christmas and winter, therefore I decided to finally finish reading this famous series in this time of the year.








As for what I’m planning to be reading this month, I’m planning on finishing the book I started last month and did not managed to finish, “Harry Potter and the deadly hallows”.


Then I want to keep on finishing series and that is the reason I am planning to read the third book in the PSI/ Changeling series,  called "Caressed by Ice" written by Nalini Singh. 





After that I want to start the Percy Jackson series, since I’ve never has gotten to read it as a kid, but I love everything that deals with mythology. So, I am reading the first one in the series, “Percy Jackson and the lightning thief”.





In addition to that I’m planning to read the first book for the Paper and Glam book club, “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing” by Marie Kondo. I am not used to read non-fiction books however I like the tittle of this one, and I think it might be interesting.



And last but not least I would like to read “The fifth wave” by Rick Yancey, since the movie adaptation will be released at the end of this month.







Thanks for reading,
