I use Amazon - normally because I'm ordering something else for home like baby wipes or something and books just tend to 'fall' into my basket!

Thank you - I found it a lovely Christmas story and hope you do too

1)The Christmasaurus - Tom Fletcher Synopsis - Forget everything you thought you knew about the North Pole, and set off on a Christmas Eve adventure with boy named William Trundle, an elf named Snozzletrump, Santa Claus (yes! The real Santa Claus!), a nasty piece of work called the Hunter, and a most unusual dinosaur . . . My Thoughts - I was looking foward to this book for most of last year and I was so excited when I got it for Christmas. It tells the story of William Trundle - a young boy who is a bit different to others - he lives with his Dad after an accident killed his mum and also left him wheelchair bound. Hes also obsessed with dinosaurs and his dad is with Christmas. This was such a magical story that really captured the magic of Christmas. It was so in depth when it came to explaining all about Santa and his elves and also about dinosaurs. Its definitaly aimed at children probably around 7+ and I'm definitaly going to read it to my son once he gets old enough to understand it. I've also loved the author Tom since my teens - hes the lead singer of McFly and also married to Giovanna Fletcher and I follow both on youtube/instagram etc. This is such a well written book to by a 'celebrity' sometimes I find celebrity books a bit difficult to get into but this one was fantastic! I hope he writes more! Rating - 5/5

Thank you - its one of the best things ever about finally being in a house - I've finally got my little library! Its defintaly easier to increase than to get it to go down I seem to find!

To read a lot more of my tbr and cut down on the book buying To loose a few pounds this year To try and not collect clutter in the new house

I'm about halfway through this - I think it's great! Can't wait for my little one to be big enough to read this too!

37 not too bad for me but I'd like to read more next year

I've read a couple of Bill Brysons before and they are really good I haven't read And the Mountains Echoed I'll have to look into it I'm looking forward to the remaining Twilight books though

Thank you it's amazing how quickly the books add up Thank you Haha it's going to be not buying more which will be the problem! Thank you I'm aiming for 52 this year so hoping I can at least reach that

I've managed 37 out of a goal of 52 so not brilliant but I've had so much going on this year that this feels not too bad. Fingers crossed for 52 next year

Well thats my 2017 log ready to go I'm very shocked that my TBR has reached 277 books and I'm really going to work on getting that down this year. I'm looking forward to discussing all my reading with everyone too Feel free to comment if you want to now

Welcome to my 2017 book log I'll try to be better at updating this year FOr the first time in 4 years my books are all in the same place (double stacked in two bookshelves!) and I'm quite shocked at how many I've actually got unread so I'm going to try and read a lot more this year. Hopefully with all the books staring at me everyday I'll get reading more! Books Read in Previous Years Books read 2010 - 56 Books read 2011 - 76 Books read 2012 - 76 Books read 2013 - 40 Books read 2014 - 18 Books read 2015 - 42 Books read 2016 - 37 Books read 2017 - 24 TBR at 1/1/2017 - 277 TBR 2017 - 307 Wishlist 1/1/2017 - 108 Wishlist 2017 - 109 Books brought 2017 - 50

Well - I cant believe that I've been away for two months again! Weve moved house now and sort of settled but we dont have any internet at all - weve been waiting for BT to connect it again and they are dragging it out far to much. I'm having to borrow MIL at the minute Ive also been so busy sorting the house - who new how much stuff you would aquire moving house and how much sorting that there was to do! Ive also got all my books in one place now something that hasnt happened for two years. I'm so shocked with how many unread that I've aquired its so bad that I really need to work on getting that down next year - I'm off to make a book log for next year now and then catch up on all the posts
