I classified under worst the books I rated 1 star or personally hated for some reason. I will write a different post for all the books I DNFed last year.
These are the worst of 2020: we have problematic books (The confectioner’s guild) and works of authors I’ve loved in the past (Odd & True).
We have horror books (Helltown), and we have also a graphic novel (Kill The Granny).
Today I’m here to show you a recap of my favorite books of 2020!
My average rating on Goodreads for 2020 is 2,9/5, so less than 2019… I think I need to better choose my readings, and that’s why I’ve unhauled a lot of books from my TBR.
“Make it pink!” “Make it blue!” The blue has win on all of these covers, right? XD
Today I will show you the books I’ve read in December, the next days I will post the best and the worst of the past year.
In December I’ve read a total of 11 books! I’ve completed my Goodreads reading challenge of 120 books, even surpassed it by 10 books, for a total of 130!
Here’s my December reading month:
5 Stars:
Murder in the crypt is the first volume in the historical crime fiction series featuring Captain Redmond and Constable Haze. I’ve loved every single word of it!
Agente 00 Miao Missione Natale is a cute novella featuring Venceslao, the beautiful black cat on the cover. Perfect Christmas reading!
Gnome for Christmas: I’ve read a lot of Christmas books thanks to the #Christmasathon I’ve participated on Twitter. The cover is lovely, and it’s a cozy mystery full of delicious foods!!
I received a copy of Esme’s wish through Booksirens. Great world-building and funny side characters!
2 stars:
The time travelers has a catch eye cover, but I didn’t like the manners of the two main characters, particularly when they are in the past.
Wintersong has a great prose and it’s perfect for this time of the year, but the romance was… not my cup of tea.
1 star:
I didn’t understand the genre of Il segreto del vicolo della serpe (sorry, it’s not translated!): it was a contemporary, a mystery, a romance? I was confused.
Now I understand that I don’t like books written or set in the North of Europe, and this is not exception. The main character is just… stupid most of the times? Yeah, no thanks.
