This December I managed to read 9 books and reviewed 7. I’m very pleased with the amount of books I manged to read this month. It wasn’t as impressive and November but it helped me to finish my GoodReads reading challenge and it meant I actually read 2 books over my pledged amount of 80 books.
However I didn’t manage to write up all of my book reviews for 2020 but I did manage to make a good dent in to them. So fingers crossed I’ll be up to day by February.

December’s Favourite Book Blitz Cover

December’s Favourite NetGalley Cover

So the reasons for this months favourite book covers for the four different categories are:
The Art of Loving Ellie: I love this cover, as soon as I saw it I was drawn to it and I know it’s because it looks like a proper water colour painting along with the colours.
Broken Beginnings: This is just a pretty cover, that’s all I have to say about it.
Lost Property: I think that this is a clever cover in the way they have used the label, as part of the title then how they have used description part of the label to introduce the book.
Ransom: Well I guess I had to choose this book cover, the guy is just a hunk with nice eyes and tattoos.
