This year’s Black Friday was a good one. Pieter and I managed to snatch a bigger and, more important, better television and I bought a couple of books for myself. In this haul I will give you the blurbs of these books, plus the blurbs of one I got to review!
‘Tis the holiday season which means that people are thinking of what they’d like to have for Christmas. Here in the Netherlands we don’t really celebrate Christmas with presents underneath the tree, but fortunately, not long after it’s already my birthday (on January 4th)! So, here are the books that are highest on my to-buy and wishlist!

Christmas season is upon us! The days are shorter, colder but also cosier. In short, it’s the perfect time to curl up with a cheesy Christmas romance, or a murder mystery. Whatever you like, as long as the setting of the book is snowy and/or Christmassy! Today’s post is a list of my recommendations of books, per genre, to read when the snow is falling.
Title: City of the Shrieking Tomb
Author(s): Patrick A. Rogers
No. of pages: 266
Genre: Horror, Supernatural
Publication date: September 24th 2018
Date read: December 2nd 2018

Although, apparently, my inspiration was on a holiday again, I still managed to write 15 posts in the month of November! I still want to up my game when it comes to this though, but that’s quite hard with zero inspiration. I miss it – come back please!
November was an amazing reading month, but I will set my TBR for December a little lower. I don’t want to pressure myself into reading and I only have to read five more books in order to finish my Goodreads Reading Challenge before the end of the year! Besides that, December is quite a busy month. So, my December TBR will consist of six books!
This month was, again, an excellent reading month to me! I managed to read a total of nine books, which I think is amazing 😁 However, the average amount of pages per book is not that high, but oh well. As long as I enjoy reading the books right?
Title: Mermaids are Real: The Mystiq Prong
Author(s): Bo Wu
No. of pages: 332
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy
Publication date: July 24th 2018
Date read: November 27th 2018

As a Stephen King fan I have this goal to eventually read all of King’s books before I die. At the moment I have read 24 books written by the king, which include short story collections. In other words, I still have a long way to go. So here’s my top five King’s I want to read asap!
