(A rather late) Twenty-Twenty Wrap Up

(A rather late) Twenty-Twenty Wrap Up

Hello there!

Long time and no post eh?

I went into a major slump with any kind of social media the tail end of last year, and to tell the truth, I’m still struggling with it now.

But I would like to be more present – so why not dig out one of the posts I had lined up and ready, and attempt to come on diving back in.

Hopefully talk to you later,

This year has been a weird one, I think we all can agree. But it’s had its bright moments too! So I’m going to do a little reflection of the highlights of my year, and of course a round up of my reading.

My Twenty-Twenty

Although I didn’t get out on day trips or holidays like I always do, I managed to savour autumn a little more than usual – and soak up the sun in spring (that behaved like our summer 😂).

I BOUGHT MY FIRST FRIGGING HOUSE!!!!

I’m enjoying my job more.

I celebrated 10 wonderful years with my partner (even if it should have been with blow out in London).

I lost a little weight (something I’ve struggled with since college), and my headspace is definitely feeling like it’s in a better place than I started the year with.

Twenty-Twenty in Books

I have read a whopping 107 books!

That smashed my record by a long long shot!

I can’t quite believe it.

My top five are:

The Fire in the Glass – JAQUELYN BENSON

Set in Edwardian London – we follow a clairvoyant who has seen her best friends death. There’s intrigue, a secret society, mystery, paranormal, and romance. I can’t get over how much I binged this book, and I cannot wait for book two!

Darkdawn – JAY KRISTOFF

Of course I have to mention Darkdawn! I finally read the final in the series and it was incredible! I can’t believe it took me so long to get to it after eagerly waiting for it. Now I’m hungrily awaiting Empire of the Vampire – Jay’s new trilogy set for release Nov 2021.

Heartstopper Vol 1 – ALICE OSEMAN

I actually can’t believe I’ve still only read the first! This was such a cute book – and I loved meeting Nick and Charlie. I have dived into another of Alice’s books, and enjoyed that one too – I must get to all the rest next year!

The Starless Sea – ERIN MORGENSTERN

Possibly the most beautiful book I’ve ever read – and one that spoke to my soul as a reader. I definitely need more books by Erin in my life.

The Daevabad Trilogy – S.A. Chakraborty

I’ve had City of Brass on my kindle since it released and I finally got around to reading it this year – thanks to a buddy read. And OH MY GOSH – WHY DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG!? Despite the size they were a breeze to read, and I’m still thinking about the lavish world now.

What were some of your favourites you discovered last year?

About Me

Books and food enthusiast. I discovered a love for reading in my late teens, so you’ll see me catching up on older series quite often. I also love to travel around the UK, where I live, and picking up some crafty hobbies – I hope to share snippets of this amongst all the book content. Other interests include gaming, podcasts, drinking too much tea, and trying to personify autumn.
