January Books

8:32 pm 1 February 2020

I read 34 books in January with an average score of 3.68. 6 were graphic novels and 17 were YA. My most-read genres were fantasy, mystery, and romance.

 

My favorite book was Only Ashes Remain - Rebecca Schaeffer. I can't wait for the sequel to come out later this year. My least favorite book was Frankissstein: A Love Story - Jeanette Winterson. I wrote about how much I disliked it here.

 

From my 2020 Reading Plans list, I had 38 books that I wanted to try to read this year. I hit 3 of those this month, so I'm 3/38 so far. Not a bad start.
