Hey everyone!
Welcome to 2021, how was your first month? England entered the 3rd national lockdown. I will admit it is getting to me, I haven’t seen my family since January 2020, I had planned to visit them again in April 2020 to celebrate mine and my sister’s birthday but that never happened. I’m really hoping that things improve and I’ll be able to see them this year!
This month I read…37 books. Most of them were manga, but it was something light that I needed. I just didn’t have the energy to read many full novels this month.

My favourite this month was a tie between Cemetery Boys and The Midnight Library for different reasons but I really loved the character development in both stories. I’ve already posted my review of Cemetery Boys where I express my thoughts on all the things I loved about it.
My least favourite this month was Children of Eden. I wanted to like it, I really liked the concept of the story but it just wasn’t executed in a way that I enjoyed. There were several tropes that I dislike and I just had no desire to finish the series.
