As you will know if you read My 2019 Goals blog post at the start of the year, my aim for 2019 and one of my 30 before 30 goals (I'm going to revisit this list of goals very soon), was to read one book a month for a year. So that would result in 12 books being read over the course of 2019.
To say that I got back into reading this year would be a massive understatement! In total I read 27 books (if you're on Goodreads, you'll find my page here)! Considering I probably hadn't read one single book prior to this year for around five years, this was truly transformative. I no longer felt guilty for stepping away from my laptop or phone after a long day and genuinely looked forward to taking time for myself to decompress and get completely lost in a book. So I thought that I would share all 26 of those books here.
I'm always interested in seeing what others have been reading as well, so hopefully you will find this of interest too. For more in depth reviews, particularly of the .5 star ratings, be sure to click through to my Goodreads page.
