Books I Said I'd Read in Autumn...

So, ahead of tomorrow's Top Ten Tuesday post, Books on My Winter TBR, this is a follow-up to the Books on My Autumn TBR post to see how I managed. I started actually planning my monthly TBR around that time so it will be interesting to see how successfully this was...

Read this one and I'm turning it into a bit of a long Series Review project/post. I also managed to read Eldest, so at least I'm halfway there.

Read this one and even managed to tick off Gemina and Obsidio! I really enjoyed the series, but Illuminae was definitely my favourite of the three.

Read this one and absolutely loved it! It's definitely made its way onto my all-time favourites.

Read this one and really enjoyed it. It was my first Riley Sager so I'm hoping to get to Survive the Night soon.

Read this one and it was okay. I thought it was a bit strange and it made me uncomfortable at times.

Didn't read but still hoping to get to it soon.

Didn't read but it's a chunker so I'm kind of okay with putting it off for now.

Didn't read and was a bit disappointed in myself. It's one of my favourites and I want to try and re-read it soon.

Didn't read it, but I'm actually not too bothered about getting to it anytime soon.

DNF'ed this one. I just did not enjoy the writing style at all and gave up at around 25%. I had no clue what was going on at all.

So 5 books finished out of the 10 isn't great, but the books I did get to are fairly chunky. The one DNF was annoying, but it's my first of the year so what can you do.

  1. You did really good. Those clunky books really slow me down too.

  2. Thanks! I'm actually quite pleased with how I did as I thought I bit off a bit more than could...

Top Ten Tuesday: Characters I'd Love to Check in With

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by  The Broke and The Bookish .  This week's topic is the top ten characters you'd like to check in with.  I really struggled with this one, my brain just went blank and I couldn't really think of anyone besides pretty obvious choices.

Discussion: The Problem With My Local Library

I used to use my local library all the time when I was in school.  Source I even spent every lunchtime in my school's library. My friends and I were pupil librarians and we practically had the run of the whole library. And then, when I started University, the only library I had time for was the University library. And that wasn't an enjoyable experience. However, last summer I started going to my local library again. (I then had to stop again when I got my job.) And unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed.  Source The availability sucks. I can deal with books I want that are already out on loan. It's the complete lack of decent books the library has on its system that gets to me. All those months I went to the library last year and I never left with a book that was already on my TBR. I walked around that place looking at my Goodreads trying to find any book on that list. And I couldn't find any at all (except for the Classics). To be honest, I ...
