End of the Year book tag

 

Are there any books you started this year that you need to finish?

I have less than a 100 pages left in Howling Dark by Christopher Ruocchio and I hope to finish this book today (have since finished!)

About 60 percent through the audiobook of The Wicked King by Holly Black 

About thirty percent through God Emperor of Dune by Frank Herbert 

Do you have an autumnal book to transition into the end of the year?

Not sure if this would count, but The Spellshop is a cozy fantasy that I feel like would be a good Fall read 

I also plan on reading Nettle & Bone, which I've heard is a good Fall read 

The Pumpkin Spice Cafe could be fun 

How To Sell A Haunted House could also be fun for a more scary read 

Is there a new release you’re still waiting for?

Now that The Mercy of Gods has come out, the next release I'm waiting on is Wind and Truth! 

What are three books you want to read before the end of the year?

Is there a book you think could still shock you and become your favorite book of the year?

If I get to this one, this could be a possible contender.

Have you already started making reading plans for 2025?

Definitely gonna continue my Legends read through!

5. Biggest Disappointment?

This could have been really good but it focused too much on the bland romance instead of exploring the really cool setting we had.

I love Jane Eyre so the fact I didn't enjoy this one as much was a bummer for sure

(to be fair both books got three stars, so they were both fine, just not as good as I was hoping they would)
