This month I'm planning to read a SF I didn't get to last month, a few thrillers to ease the pressure on that bookcase shelf and squeeze in a few other bits and pieces! I'm not setting a huge target this time as it puts too much pressure on me so this is the basic plan and if I get these read and get some TV watched, I'll be pretty happy!
The one thing these books all have in common is that they are paperbacks. I've went for books with mixed reviews on Goodreads or that I bought in two minds because they were cheap but I'm not sure I'll like, in the hope of a few DNFs and gaining back some bookshelf space!
Update! I've added another category in for the World Reads Challenge. I'm looking at books set in the Arctic and will post about it on January 5th!

Hurrah, I finished with all the books I'd planned to read this month and I still have time to spare! I'm a bit reluctant to start anything that I think I'll like as I've already posted my Annual Survey and a few of my bests lists! I might try a cull of my ereader or concentrate on getting some computer tasks done this coming week!

I've got sister, sister on my Kindle so I'll be watching for your thoughts. :)
ReplyDeleteIt'll be well into next year before the review appears! I'm still getting reviews from books I did in August done at the moment! It was a better book than I expected it to be.
DeleteHappy Reading...and Happy Christmas, too! I hope you and your dad have a wonderful Christmas this year. :D
ReplyDeleteIt'll be a quiet Christmas hopefully with no more stress! Merry Christmas to you too!
DeleteGo you! I still haven't read anything going on week #3

I've started ploughing through an 800 page book but I don't think I'll finish it before the new year so it'll be my first read of 2019 I think!
DeleteWell done! I had a feeling you wouldn't enjoy Illuminae. Was it the characters or the whole book?
ReplyDeleteI didn't much like the characters and their obsession with each others sex lives! I also found her diary entries very dull as well as the MC's emails to each other. It just wasn't for me!
