Favourite Books Of 2020!

Hey ForeverBookers, 

I’m sorry this is coming to you a little late but here’s my list of top 10 books I read in 2020. What a year...I didn’t read too much in 2020 but I plan to read a lot more in 2021 hopefully, fingers crossed!

1) A Discovery Of Witches by Deborah Harkness - my favourite EVER book (and series) but I didn’t read much in 2020 so I’ve counted this as #1! SUPER excited for season 2 of the TV show that starts in under a week! I’ll be rereading the second book at the same time! 

2) Royal Assassin by Robin Hobb - the SECOND book in the Realm Of The Elderlings series! It’s where the most story happens within the first trilogy. I hope to get to the Liveship Traders and maybe the Tawney Man trilogy in 2021! 

3) The Harry Potter series (1-5) by JK Rowling - It’s the first time I’m reading this series as a whole. I’m still reading it...but it’s great! I’m just over half way through the 6th book! I hope to have the series finished in January 2021 but we’ll see...book 5, the longest is my favourite so far!

4) Frostheart by Jamie Littler - A fantastic polar fantasy! Highly recommend! 

5) Blackbird by Kokano Sakurakoji - I reread this series in 2019/2020! It’s still my favourite manga series!

6) One Piece by Eiichiro Oda - Another great a manga series, this time, adventure that I started to reread in late 2020. I hope to finish it in 2021, or get as far as is released in English!

7)  The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J Maas - LOVED going back to the TOG world! I’m SUPER excited for “A Court Of Silver Flames” in 2021 as well as hopefully continuing “TOG” with Heir Of Fire too!

8) The House With Chicken Legs by Sophie Anderson - A great middle grade, filled with love and hope...

9) A Pinch Of Magic by Michelle Harrison - A middle grade that combines adventure and heart! 

10) From Venice With Love by Rosemary Rey - an arc that I was sent. I enjoyed it!

Have you read any of these? What did you think? I'd be interested to know! I look forward to what the new year will bring!

American Royals (#1 American Royals) by Katharine McGee review

Hey ForeverBookers,   I’ve just finished American Royals by Katherine McGee and I LOVED it! If you love scandal and complicated love stories in a contemporary setting, then you will love it as well! Think a royal version of Gossip Girl and you have this book in a nutshell. American Royals follows six characters, all of the new adult age range that come together to create a story of intrigue and romance. There isn’t high action or really a plot outside of the romance which was fine with me as I really enjoy stories just focused on the romance. I appreciated how “American Royals” only focused on the six different characters. There weren’t loads of personalities to get to know, and they all followed the same pattern as they’re all from or have grown up around a certain standing in society. This made the characters easy to follow and understand. It is a character led story, without as I said, much plot.  What there is of a plot of American Royals is taken up with the ascension of ...

City Of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments Book 2) by Cassandra Clare Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  I've just finished reading City Of Ashes and it was really good! I've read this book before again and I didn't think it was very good last time but now I think differently. It had everything from fighting demons, to laugh out loud parts, to heartfelt moments. The story starts from where City Of Bones finished so there will be minor spoilers below.  The characters continue developing in this second book. For example, Clary's best friend, Simon really takes on a new role as a vampire, as well as the other characters maturing too. This was good to see as it gave the story different levels that we haven't seen before. I especially enjoyed reading about Simon's transformations. There's a new character called Maia, who is a werewolf. There's some antagonism between Simon and her as in this series vampires and werewolves don't get on.   We meet Alec and Isabelle's parents here. Maryse, their mother is a strong character, who is angry...

The Hollow (The Hollow Trilogy Book 1) by Jessica Verday Review.

Hi ForeverBookers, sorry it's taken me so long to write another review. This book has taken me longer than I thought to get through.  This was a reread for me. I read it when I was 16/17 years old and it's certainly more for that age than a girl in her 20's. There were bits I liked about this book but I didn't love it. I just found the main character very whiney and self destructive to her own happiness to be honest.  When I was 16/17 years old I can remember almost swooning for the lead male character but not so much now.  The lead girl goes through a traumatic event before the start of the book and the rest basically revolves around that.  The characters were good as well. I liked how only a small cast of characters were involved as it gave the book more of a focus on the Legend Of Sleepy Hollow. However some of the characters were very annoying although they were portrayed well.  . Another good point was the settings. I could really imagine myself in some of ...
