Hello everyone!

 

This is my new reading log for 2018! :)  2017 was really bad for me when it came to reading. There was a lot of stressful stuff and I'm glad the year's coming to an end! I hope to have a more productive and a lot more enjoyable reading year in 2018! I hope everyone's mojo behaves next year! Have a great new year 2018!! :smile2:

NB: I'm using the Goodreads rating system, which goes like this:
1/5: I didn't like it
2/5: It was okay
3/5: I liked it
4/5: I really liked it
5/5: It was amazing

 
NB: I'm going to be more harsh with my rating this year, and I'm going to try and refrain from giving 5/5 to all great books, and reserve the highest rating for books that are great as well as recommendable, books that I will definitely want to re-read in the future and that I want to own a copy of.

The Malazan Book of the Fallen - Steven Erikson - my favourite fantasy series. I've banged the drum about it quite enough by now. It's like Marmite. Seven out of the ten books in the series are right at the top of my list: Gardens of the Moon / Deadhouse Gates / Memories of Ice / House of Chains / Midnight Tides / The Bonehunters / Toll the Hounds.

The Belgariad - David Eddings - this was the series that introduced me to the fantasy genre. I loved it when I was 14 or 15. Not sure how I'd feel about it if I read it again now, but I have to include it here.

I see you have Rebecca on your list. I sincerely hope you enjoy that when you read it.

 

I've started reading it maybe 4 times but it has never stuck :( I don't know why! Maybe I've not been in the right mood or maybe I shouldn't try and read it in Finnish. I don't know! I've read My Cousin Rachel by the same author and that book I loved! :smile2:

 

 

Thanks everyone for your wishes, I hope we all have an amazing reading year! :smile2:  :readingtwo:

 

I'm sorry that I've been missing in action... The thing is, I have found someone and I'm now in a relationship and he's been taking up a lot of my time!  My reading's non-existent most of the time and it's ... it's nice in a way but it's also annoying that I don't get to read as much as I used to :D  

 

I've also come to the conclusion that I need to find a new job and that's going to be tricky and time consuming.

 

Lots of changes in my life, I'm still getting adjusted to things!

I'm happy your reason for being missing in action, is a happy one :friends3:! I'm happy that you've found someone you are happy with :hug:. Maybe you'll be able to do more reading in a while :).

 

Good luck with finding a new job :). It sounds like a scary process, but I hope you find something you like :).
