I'll pin this post so that people can see what kind of books I love 😊
1. I didn't count :/ around 70-80
2. I had a 30 books reading goal in the summer break and I think I completed it.
3. I guess Frankenstein??
4. Either The Bedlam Stacks or The Kingdoms by Natasha Pulley.
5. The priory of the orange tree
6. Coraline
7. Oldest as for when was it written? Then Tom Jones
8. The nobleman's guide to scandal and shipwrecks
9. Six of crows
10. Hmm this is hard, I pretty much liked everything. Maybe The Queen's Gambit
11. Aristotle and Dante discover the secrets of the universe. Realistic YA romance is usually a big no no for me, even if it's lgbtq. I liked it though
12. Aristotle and Dante again😂 I unexpectedly found it in small bookshop in the nearby town. I didn't even know they sold English books and that was the day I realised they have a whole floor for them
13. The nobleman's guide to scandal and shipwrecks
14. The priory of the orange tree and The lost future of pepperharrow
15. Dark rise
16. Dark rise😂
17. 1. The priory of the orange tree
2. The ballad of songbirds and snakes
3. Dark rise again
4. The alienist
5. The queer principles of kit webb
(not in particular order)
18. Carry on, Caraval, idk more, I liked the others
19. Aside from my textbooks, I don't really think I read/finished any non-fiction 😅
20. The priory of the orange tree
21. My textbooks? Xd
22. Idk
23. The watchmaker of filigree street
24. The ballad of songbirds and snakes, maybe. Idk what makes a title the best
25. Yes; Natasha Pulley, Samantha Shannon, Leigh Bardugo, just to mention some of my most recent new discoveries
26. Non-modern set (queer) romance for certain
27. I discovered that I like fantasy genres too
28. I started many series which don't have an ending yet :(
29. The Broken Sky trilogy
30. The Captive prince trilogy
31. Yes, but I usually like to read in untranslated English
32. Numerous classics 😅
33. Yes, multiple things unfortunately, for example Caraval and Tom Jones
34. Idk I don't really share with people what I read so I don't really recommend either
35. No, partly because I've been infected with the Desire To Buy Every Book I Read and partly because I like to read in English, not my native language
36. Idk, around 50? But I'm not sure
37. Six of crows and at least one of the books I got for Christmas
38. Hopefully Dark rise 2
39. She who became the sun, The secret history, Maurice, Interview with the vampire, Under the whispering door
40. To find as many as possible historical fiction with lgbtq characters who get a happy ending 😂
