Book Bloggers Appreciation | December 2019 💻💫

Book Bloggers Appreciation | December 2019 💻💫

💫 Hi, my beautiful bookish people, I hope you’re having the most amazing day. 💞 This is a blog post series, where every month I’ll highlight a series of blog posts, from around the book blogger community, that I enjoyed reading or that I think are amazing and deserve more love and recognition. With this, I hope to be able to somehow support other book bloggers more, and I also hope you can find new book blogs to follow or content that interests you or help you.
Maybe the look of this post will be simpler to what you usually see on the blog, but I like this idea and it’s honestly with the simple purpose of supporting each other more and we can find new content in a simple and organized way.
I don’t have a certain amount to I’m highlighting per month, they’re just posts I’ve come across with and I think they’re INCREDIBLE, so I want to share them with you all. I used to make a small top 5 with my favorite posts of the month, but I realized that I had to delete many posts to be able to select only 5, and I don’t think it’s fair, there are SO many wonderful posts and everyone deserves the same love and recognition, so that’s why I decided to make this post apart. 😊 
I hope you enjoy, like and support this idea. I LOVE YOU 🥰 and let’s start! 💫

December Wrap Up || Finishing Trilogies & Prioritizing 2020 Plans 🌾

December Wrap Up || Finishing Trilogies & Prioritizing 2020 Plans 🌾

 🌾 Hi guys!! I hope you’re having the best day & you’re enjoying your reading 💞 Today I bring you my beloved Wrap Up of the month of December, where I’ll talk about all the books I’ve read during the month. This is officially the last Wrap Up of 2019, guys! Isn’t that crazy? This year really flew for me, but it has been in summary a great blessing in terms of my blogging life and a great learning and growth journey in my personal life. So I’m super happy to have gone through all these experiences to get where I am today, but also super ready to start a 2020 with renewed energy and many projects. 🥰


Before I start, I can’t say goodbye to this year without thanking you for being there for me, honestly and from the bottom of my heart, you don’t know how much your comments and “likes” mean, all your interactions with me on Twitter, I’ve met wonderful people of generous souls and also bloggers who inspire me every day, so I just grateful and I’m very excited to share another year with you, so I hope you decide to stay because nothing would make me happier and there’s much more I want to share with you. ❤️ 🌟

In terms of reading this month has been a bit crazy, of course and as expected, I ended up reading much less than I planned, but still, I feel satisfied with what I’ve read because I fulfilled my goal that was to end with two trilogies that I’ve really loved, I’m kind of nostalgic about it but it’s also a great experience, so I’ll talk more about it below. I’ve also dedicated myself to start reading my first ARC of 2020 and an author has been kind enough to send me his work also to review and it has been a great experience, so I feel happy about it. 😄 👏🏻 
I think that in general, I’ve been much more focused on planning for next year in terms of my life and the blog and things related to my reading and writing, of which I tell you everything in the post of my goals if you want to check it out, and also I’m planning to do a new reading journal again for next year but try new things and I’m quite entertained with it, watching videos and things, I’m obsessed, I cannot lie. I feel like a little girl buying pens and things for my notebook  😂 
So I’ve read a very large book, so I’m pleased with myself, and although I had time to read something else before the end of the month, I didn’t want to force myself, I’ve already achieved my Goodreads Challenge, I’ve read 63 books in total this year, which is great, so I don’t feel pressure and I thought it was best to take it easy and use the time to plan things for the next year instead.  😊 

So super excited to share with you what I’ve read during the month and also as always, I’ll be sharing my favorite posts and some more detailed statistics. I LOVE YOU and THANK YOU again for always being there, I see you 🌾  Continue reading “December Wrap Up || Finishing Trilogies & Prioritizing 2020 Plans 🌾”

Jude must risk venturing back into the treacherous Faerie Court, and confront her lingering feelings for Cardan, if she wishes to save her sister. But Elfhame is not as she left it. War is brewing. As Jude slips deep within enemy lines, she becomes ensnared in the conflict’s bloody politics.

Kell – once assumed to be the last surviving Antari – begins to waver under the pressure of competing loyalties. And in the wake of tragedy, can Arnes survive?

WHO WILL RISE?
Lila Bard, once a commonplace – but never common – thief, has survived and flourished through a series of magical trials. But now she must learn to control the magic, before it bleeds her dry. Meanwhile, the disgraced Captain Alucard Emery of the Night Spire collects his crew, attempting a race against time to acquire the impossible.

WHO WILL TAKE CONTROL?
And an ancient enemy returns to claim a crown while a fallen hero tries to save a world in decay.

Top 5 || Least-Favorite Books of 2019 👎🏻

As always, I’m SO SO grateful for having you in my life, so THANK YOU for being there reading this post, you don’t know how much it means to me.❤️ 
So, today I bring you another one of my series of the end of the year posts, where I’m summarizing my entire year of reading. This time it’s about my least favorite books or “worst” books of the year for me, as always I want to remind you that this is only my opinion and I think it’s great if you’ve loved any of these books, they just weren’t for me, maybe because they didn’t have that click with me or because they have some kind of triggering content for me. ❌ 
I had a post recently where I talked about my most disappointing readings, and I want to clarify that this post has nothing to do with that, but here I’ll mention my top 5 of those books that I really didn’t like and don’t enjoy at all, so obviously, I’ll not be repeating any books that I mentioned in that previous post.
Again, I’m doing this post in the form of a top since I think it’s more fun like that, starting with the least non-favorite until the worst book I’ve read this year in the number 1 position. 👏🏻 
I repeat that I respect your opinion on each book 100% and it makes me happy if you’ve enjoyed them, this is only my personal opinion about each one of them & of course, I would love to know everything you think in the comments, so now, without more further ado, let’s start! ☄️ Continue reading “Top 5 || Least-Favorite Books of 2019 👎🏻”
