2021 Book Un-haul

 


Usually, we're buying books and these types of posts are hauls of piles of new books (don't get me wrong, we're still buying books though not as many) but today is sharing a super stack that we're saying goodbye to. 
Every so often we go through our bookcases and take out books we've read and didn't enjoy, books that have sat there a very long time and we don't think we will get around to reading, or sometimes even books I've bought purely because I collect certain things. This makes more room for new incoming books as space really is running out!
Out of these four are being passed on to my Mam and the rest will be taken to a charity shop...which is where many of them have come from in the first place!

Mr H's Goodreads Year in Books 2020

 



So what a year of books! This is the second year doing a post of this kind and this year has so many more books read. I think it's great how Goodreads/Mrs H composes this breakdown of the books with the covers and everything on it.


40 books! 13,918 pages. I can't believe how many books I got through this year. So many of these were great books I got through 2 of the Mistborn trilogy, most of the Harry Potter series and one of my favourite reads Farmer Giles of Ham. I wonder what I will read in 2021... I doubt I'm going to get to 40 books.

May TBR Lists

 



I know I'm like a broken record, but I really can never believe how fast the months fly in. The fifth reading month of the year already and so we are deliberately trying to get through some series that we're both in the middle of. That being the case means that we've dropped to two each on the TBR again due to some longer books.
