My 2020 Reads

Here it is, my list of 2020 reads!

This year my reading choices have looked different (like so many things😐). I've done audiobooks, graphic novels, and a number of nonfiction. So, I thought I'd do something different with this blog post and list my top five picks. This list includes only books I read for the first time.

1. The Blood of Kings trilogy by Jill Williamson

The books in this series are HUGE, but they totally suck you in. Faith based and so, so good. I highly recommend!

2. Shadowscent by P.M. Freestone

Perfume and scent are a big part of the world building. A compelling story!

3. The Trouble with Hating You by Sajni Patel

I don't read contemporary or romance, but I really enjoyed this book!

4. North: How to Live Scandinavian by Bronte Aurell

I've really struggled with reading nonfiction this year, but this book was easy to read. Informative and enjoyable.

5. Brand of Light by Ronie Kendig

A Christian Science Fiction with Fantasy vibes. Romantic, action packed, and wholly unique.
