My Bookish Life

     Hello and how are you guys? I hope you all are doing good I have had a very good day myself. I've been very busy because I had to work so I'm tired but, I want to get this post done. Doing my top ten books of the year this time has been very different because I didn't give 5 stars to more than 10 books this whole year so I couldn't really do versus battles to figure out my top ten because that would only kind of change the order not which ones are mentioned . So for this one I'm not even going to number them because they are kind of all interchangeable but, these have been my favorite reads of the year. With that being said lets get down to business and talk about the books! Title: The Eyes of The Dragon Author: Stephen King Genre: YA/Fantasy Rating: 5 stars Synopsis: A kingdom is in turmoil as the old king dies, murdered by a strange and horrible poison . While the land of Delain mourns, the evil wizard Flagg, hatches an unscrupulous plot, which sees the King...

       Hi you guys! I hope you had a good day! My day was pretty good . I did some cleaning but, other than that I mostly rested and did some reading and diamond painting. Yes, I love to do crafts too! However I did tell you guys I would be back with my December TBR so here we go!       Firstly , it being the end of the year I kinda just want to pick some easy reads. Partly because I recently read two roughly 500 page books. Also partly because I have some serious non-fiction reads planned for next month. So yeah I just want to chill for a minute and not read anything huge. In fact I'm mostly reading graphic novels this month.      So the following is my TBR for the coming month. 1. Title : Preacher Book Five: Small Town Blues Author: Garth Ennis Genre: Graphic Novel Pages : 366   I really want to finish my Preacher re-read this month . I love the comic series .

So lets get to this !  #1. Title : The Light Fantastic Author: Terry Pratchett Genre: Fantasy Rating: 3.5 stars Pages: 270 My thoughts on the book: I thought this book was a decent read . I did like it and I love Terry Pretchett's sense of humor. However, I didn't think it was as good as the first book in the series and that's why I gave it 3.5 stars. I still want to check out the rest of the series though because this story is really funny and so strange ! #2.

       Good evening everybody! I hope you all had a good day I had a pretty nice and relaxing day with my family . It was pretty fun ! We went to the park and had dinner with my in-laws. Now however, I want to finish the rest of the blog work I wanted to do today. So now it's time for my monthly Reading Wrap Up!  #1. Title: We Author: Yevgeny Zamyatin Genre: fiction Pages: 108 Rating: 4 stars The first book I finished reading in July was We by Yevgeny Zamayatin. It's a fictional book about the citizens of the totalitarian society OneState. They live out lives devoid of passion and creativity until one of them, Droid-503, discovers he has a soul. Looking back on this book it has stuck with me and I think I liked it more than I thought I did so I think I have to upgrade the books rating to 4 stars. #2.
