All the Books I Read in 2018

Posted on

The year 2018 is gone and January is finally gone (it feels like it lasted 60 days) so it’s time to count all the books that I read in 2018.

That was my best reading year in terms of the number of books not so much in terms of the quality of the books that I read. I read various genres – science fiction, fantasy, ya, romance, thrillers… In 2018 I read several really good books that became my favorites – The Dispossessed, Left Hand of Darkness and The Cuckoo’s Calling among others. Some books that I read in 2018 were really bad (my rare 1 star books) – Paper Princess, That Fatal Kiss. Other books completely surprised me (pleasantly) – Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, Alex, Approximately and Sharp Objects.

In the total I read 87 books and here are they:

I read 50 books in the first six months of 2018. During the summer I got into a reading slump and went on multiple vacations so I didn’t have much time to read.

Near the end of the year I picked up pace and read more books mainly ones with Christmas theme as well as few thrillers.

As I mentioned in my resolution post my goal for this year is to read 90 books. I read 8 books in January so I am off to a good start. 🙂

Happy reading and see you soon!
