December Round Up

This December I managed to read 12 books and reviewed 2 books with 13 more reviews to write. Unfortunately normal life has been getting in the way of my blogging and my book reviews. However I’m hoping that I’ll soon be catching up with everything over the coming weeks.  

I have read quite a few books this month that have had between 150 – 300 pages. As I’ve been trying to read as many books as I can to complete my GoodReads 2019 Reading Challenge.

This Months Favourite Book Covers

So the reasons for this months favourite book covers for the four different categories are:

Secret Admirer’s Christmas Wish #2: I just had to choose this cover it’s not just because the cover matches the Christmas period. It mainly down to the little West Highland White Terrier. They are my favourite dogs as I grew up around them and I’ve had them myself when I left home.

If You’re Reading This: This is such a simple cover design it really stood out to me. It just looks so clean and appealing.

The House on the Lake: This cover just sparks my imagination I just hope the books does the same.

Unexpected Gifts: I chose this one because it’s a Christmasy romantic cover and just sums up what Christmas is and all of the Christmas 24 Movies I’ve been watching all through November and December.
