Hi booklovers
It's time to share with you my 2019 4.5 star reads.
These books were not necessarily published in 2019.
*Shadows of Self (Mistborn #5) by Brandon Sanderson
This was my favourite of the current three books of Mistborn Era 2.
*The Blinding Knife (Lightbringer #2) by Brent Weeks
This one is filled with a lot of twists and turns and the ending is such a big cliffhanger.
*Skyward (Skyward #1) and Starsight (Skyward#2) by Brandon Sanderson
I really enjoyed both books (I have to admit that I actually read Skyward at the end of 2018 and then reread it before starting Starsight). Starsight didn't go where I thought it would go and I missed some of the characters from Skyward, but I found some new favourite characters as well. I'm very curious to see where book 3 will take us. Unfortunately, it won't be published until 2021 :-(
There is one sci-fi book on this list:
*One Word Kill (Impossible Times #1) by Mark Lawrence
This is Mark Lawrence's venture into YA sci-fi and I enjoyed this a lot. It takes place in the 80s and being an 80s kid myself some things were familiar. I actually listened to the audiobook of this one and the sequel and only recently got the physical copies. I also pre-ordered the final one on audio and I'll definitely be getting a physical copy as well.
The other 3 4.5 star reads were NA contemporary:
*The Risk (Briar U #2) and the Play (Briar U #3) by Elle Kennedy
Elle Kennedy is one of my favourite NA writers and I thoroughly enjoyed both these stories.
*Shacking Up (Shacking Up #1) and Hooking Up (Shacking Up #2) by Helena Hunting
I've read a couple of the books in the Shacking Up series, but these are still my favourite ones.
Btw, these NA covers are so cringe-worthy, it's one of the reasons I read these on my e-reader.
Have you read any of these? What were some of your 4.5 star reads of 2019? Do you use half stars in your rating? Let me know in the comments.
Bye for now
