These are the books I've acquired over the winter months, the bookworm version of stockpiling if you will. Rather than getting food and warm materials like an animal, I have collected books to warm my soul.
There's a few Christmas presents, books I can't remember why I bought and a few with some rather random reasonings behind them...

The trend of not reading much continues, but it's not 1 million movies getting in the way this time. It's playing too much World of Warcraft and binge-watching The Leftovers, which has to be one of the best TV Shows I've ever watched!
New Year, Same Me. This month I read a fantastic book, an ok book, a little bit of poetry and started another book (despite currently juggling about 5 different books...yes, I'm still reading The Wind Up Bird Chronicle!)
As usual, I watched loads of movies, but because I didn't do a December wrap-up, I thought I'd talk about the films I watched in December and January in this video.
While I didn't read as many books as I had hoped to in 2021 in fact I changed my goal from 75 to 50 to 45 to 40 to 30 and still failed lol! But everyone always says its quality over quantity and I must admit that I did read a few really great books, so without further ado here are the 8 books that I loved in 2021.
I often find myself struggling to pick up a book. I work full time, and I love movies (and TV shows tbh) a bit too much!
This year I've not read as much as I usually do, part of that is because I'm not a student anymore and I don't have to read 1 million books to pass an exam, and it's also because I'm a slow reader and I get tired of reading long books.
So in an effort to re-ignite the reading spark, I've started reading short books and here I will share some old faves and some recent discoveries and also somehow talk about movies again...FFS.
