GUYS. I am SOOOOOOO excited for today's post!!!!!!! I have been looking forward to this post ALL YEAR LONG!!
I'm sure you can tell by the title, but today I am sharing my 2020 book review!! I am so, so, so, SO excited!!!!
2020 was the year that I rediscovered my love for reading!! I've been a big reader for as long as I can remember, but these past few years I haven't read as much as I would've liked to. So at the beginning of 2020, I set a goal to read 36 books. 3 books a month. Well, I ended up reading 120.
With all the hardships and time at home in 2020, reading was what got me through it.
So, without further ado, these are all the books that I read in 2020!! (you can click on the month to read my review!)

Okay....Now onto my top books from the year!! This year I decided that it would be more appropriate to rank my top 3 standalones and my top 3 series considering how much I read.
Let's start off with series!! Here are some of my honorable mentions that *almost* made it into the top 3!!
I cannot believe how many books you read in 2020 Ella! I loved Just Mercy too and I love my memory of going to see the movie with you!
ReplyDeleteWow! Going to the movies seems like something from an alternate reality!! Thank you!!
Deletewow!! that is a lot of books. You should be proud of yourself. great job on the post!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Vivi!!
DeleteWow! What a great job surpassing your goal by so much. I see so many of my favorites on here-- Divergent series, Matched series, The Help, The Twilight series, The Hunger Games, etc. You might like the Space Between the Stars by Anne Corlett. It's listed as science fiction (of which I am rarely a fan) but reads more like a dystopian novel.
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I’ll have to try it out!!
