Best of 2018

Another year means another reading year and more books to be added on our TBR pile. I have been doing well with my reading on the first half of the year until I fall into the biggest slump of my life. Even so, I managed to complete my reading challenge in Goodreads.

I read a total of 27 books. Out of 27, I will narrow down my best of 2018 into 5 books. It is because most of the books that I have read this year are series or part of a series. So I will only choose one book if I love that series.

But before anything else, here are the books that I have read this year!

“Time is the alchemy that turns compassion into love…”

SYNOPSIS:

Twin sisters Jack and Jill were seventeen when they found their way home and were packed off to Eleanor West’s Home for Wayward Children.

This is the story of what happened first…

Jacqueline was her mother’s perfect daughter—polite and quiet, always dressed as a princess. If her mother was sometimes a little strict, it’s because crafting the perfect daughter takes discipline.

Jillian was her father’s perfect daughter—adventurous, thrill-seeking, and a bit of a tom-boy. He really would have preferred a son, but you work with what you’ve got.

They were five when they learned that grown-ups can’t be trusted.

They were twelve when they walked down the impossible staircase and discovered that the pretense of love can never be enough to prepare you a life filled with magic in a land filled with mad scientists and death and choices.

 

April Wrap-Up

Another month has already passed and another late wrap-up for you guys. I really want to get this blog as active as it can be but I’m too lazy.

I’m really frustrated when it comes to my wrap-up lately because I’m not reading as much as I did before. On the bright side, I guess reading something is better than reading nothing. So I’ll make this wrap-up quick.

I’ve read 5 books in the month of April and I’m quite satisfied with that because I finally finally FINALLY finished The Complete Sherlock Holmes Volume 1.

Without further ado, here are all the books that I have read in the month of April…
