I am very behind on all these wraps up! I\u2019ve been doing another Goodreads reading challenge since September and I find that setting TBRs for the month go horribly wrong as I have to read books for the spell it out and between that and my library books, whatever I plan to read at the start of the month goes out the window. But it was a very successful reading month in terms of enjoyable books and getting books I own off my TBR.<\/p>\n

    Favourite Book of the Month <\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

    This was such a hard one to choose, because there were many books which surprised me with how much I liked them (One More Christmas at the Castle, After Dark, The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted<\/em>) but also ones I expected to like and got what I expected (the rest of the\u00a0Kamogawa Food Detectives\u00a0<\/em>series,\u00a0Murder at the Black Cat Cafe, One Life<\/em>). But one book in particularly blew me away with how much I enjoyed it and is something I will probably reread in the future, and that is the first book I read from Elenor M. Ingram,\u00a0From The Car Behind.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

    Least Favourite Book of the Month <\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

    Much like the favourite book category, this was hard to choose from. There were some which just bored me but I liked small parts of it (The Road Trip<\/em>), others which had a fun premise but it\u2019s been barely a fortnight and I can\u2019t remember who died and who the murderer was (Murder Most Festive<\/em>). But the one that \u2018wins\u2019 this category is by an author that I have previously loved in the past, but somehow managed to take an isolation thriller and turned into a survival horror with the focus on an abusive relationship and a frankly depressing ending. So glad I got One Perfect Couple\u00a0<\/em>out of the library.<\/p>\n

    Reading Updates<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

    This is the final update before the end of the year so it\u2019s definitely a chance to look at my goals and see what there is to complete before the end of the year. Spoiler alert, it\u2019s definitely worse than I thought but I\u2019m not completely off track?<\/p>\n
