All Books I Read in 2021 | Part 1

Jan 9, 2022

I did this post at the start of 2021, recapping all the books that I read through the previous year. And even though it takes quite a bit of time, I really enjoyed doing it. Not only to show you all what I read throughout, but also for me to look back on it. I ended up nearly reading 200 books in 2021, so I did have to split this post up into three different ones. But they are coming in the next few weeks!

I’m going to get right into it because this is going to be a long post. Here are the books that I read from January – April in 2021. You will see a very familiar pattern throughout these posts. Nearly everything I read in 2021 was a romance book. And I adored it. Nevertheless, let’s get into it. As always these are in no particular order.

A Pretty Decent Month | December Wrap Up

Dec 30, 2021

It was a pretty decent reading month for me considering it’s my busiest time of the year at work. I did most of my reading on my travels this month, which I don’t mind at all. It was a very strange reading month. It was dark romances, fantasy romances and Christmas romances kind of month. But I loved it.

I started some new series, I continued new series and I read some novella’s and it was great. Again it was mostly romances and I needed that this month. So let’s get right into it. As always these are in no order.

An Okay Reading Month | November Wrap Up

Dec 2, 2021

November was a very busy month for me. I went back to work, which has been crazy. But I seriously love it. It was my birthday and I had a lot of little things here and there that I did. And while all this happened. Because of that, I didn’t read as much as I first wanted to and I did a fair few re-reads.

In saying that, I still managed to read a good chunk of books. Sometimes during this time of year, my reading does slow down even more, but I have felt very motivated to read. Add to that I travel nearly 2 hours a day all up for work – which means I get to read a lot on the train.

Anyway, enough of this let’s get into it. Here are the books that I read in November. There were some good, some bad and some fantastic.
