Books to Read before the end of the year

I used to be one of those people that if you saw me, there would be a book in my hands. my favourite way to spend the day would be on my bed, under a soft warm blanket reading with a cup of coffee and a grouchy cat.



I would love to say that I am still that girl but I really am not. I still want to be but life and hobbies and studies have gotten in the way of how much I read. Sadly unless you are studying English Literature and really love reading the classics sometimes reading a lot won't help you pass varsity.

The problem is I miss reading a good book and having that moment when your toes curl because the story is so good or crying because your favourite character died, always a fan Dobby. So I made a list 5 just 5 books that I really want to read before the year is through. They aren't studies related or even on the list of soon to be classic literature but they are books that I do want to read and hopefully will have me happy to have read them.

1. Helen Fieldings- Bridget Jones, Mad about the boy
I have heard it is a going to be classic, I have been meaning to read it for months, the problem; I hear it is very different from the first two Bridget Jones books and that makes me sad as I love those books so crossing fingers that the book will be good, for me that is.

2. Robert Galbraith- The Silkworm
JK Rowlings' other pen name, I really enjoyed the first one in the series, they were beautifully written, just a tad dark and the lead character Cormoran, is amazing, so as soon as I can get a copy that I can afford, I am buying a copy.

3. Robert Jordon- A wheel of time
The Ginger is the worlds almost biggest fan of these books, I have yet to read more than 5 pages of these, so obviously I am hoping that they will be as amazing as she keeps making them sound.

4. Eleanor Catton- The Luminaries
Everytime I walk past this book in the book store, I hear it calling my name, whilst I am fully aware not to judge a book by it's cover, surely when the cover calls you, one must respond? After all would they put a bad book in such a beautiful cover? 

5. Neil Gaimon- Coraline
It's a children's book but it looks amazing, it looks like what every child and child at heart should have read or be reading really soon.

Happy reading and many cups of coffee,
