2, 9 & 22 for end-of-year book ask!!
2. Did you reread anything? What?
oh I love rereading books hehe I have to push myself to read new things sometimes!
I reread the Percy Jackson series, and the Infernal Devices trilogy, plus the first two Locked Tomb books, I read Piranesi and Nona the Ninth both for the first time this year and then reread both of them, I reread a bunch of fave fics and a few fave novels I own, reread Into the Drowning Deep in spooky season, and the The Great Christmas Knit-Off this month!
9. Did you get into any new genres?
Ooh interesting question! I dont really think so? I think I stuck to a few of my standard genres this year. I’m really bad at knowing what genre something is so I lump all the similar ones together!
22. Whats the longest book you read?
I still have a few books I wanna read (I havent hit my goal bc I got sick TWICE in december!) but currently the longest is Inheritance by Christopher Paolini, at 860 pages! that one was a battle to get through.
If I’m being honest, the longest is actually a fic I reread thats listed as 1988 pages, but lets not talk about that 😂

end of year book tag
I was tagged by @petrareads thank you!
Are there any books you started this year that you need to finish?
yeah, wizards of once: knock three times! it's a kid's book but i really like the author, my little sister got it from the library so I have to finish it in time to return it haha.
Do you have an autumnal book to transition into the end of the year?
no i don't! now i think of it, i don't think i've read any autumn-y books - feel free to recommend some! i usually watch over the garden wall in autumn but didn't do that this autumn either
Is there a new release you’re still waiting for?
this year? no, but next year i'm excited for the hand on the wall by maureen johnson!
What are three books you want to read before the end of the year?
i doubt i'll be able to finish three books now haha, but hypothetically it would be knock three times, little women, and salt to the sea!
Is there a book you think could still shock you and become your favorite book of the year?
this actually just happened with a book i read a week ago! the bear and the nightingale, it was really good
Have you already started making reading plans for 2020?
i want to read little women before the movie comes out, but other than that not really
I tag @plantpages @listentothepages @annabeth-will-kick-your-ass @gxldentrio @magicalabilities @thepontifexmaximus @pxtterwxtch @books-and-cookies
what does the category "You've Got Mail" asking for?
It is for books that involve a premise similar to that movie. so focusing on mail/messaging as a plot device.
