Favorite Reads of 2020!!

 What a year!!

A lot of things happened this year. I know many of us have struggled due to the Corona crisis. It was a horrible year, yet it was good for me. I managed to read 25 books. I know it's nothing comparing to what I used to read but still a record to me.

Some were a Meh, some were acceptable, and some wonderful!! 

So, here's my favorite 6 reads of this year:

 

 

6- The Lightning thief:

I know I'm a bit late to read this book but later better than never. I picked this book randomly. I was in a reading slump. So, I was looking for a light easy read and I found this one in my library waiting for me to devour it. This book was amazing. I loved the humor, the suspense, and mostly the Greek myth in it. all these elements made this book my favorite read of this year!  

 

 

 

 

 

5- Kingdom of Ash:

 

  Ah, Sarah J.Maas! Her writings never disappoint   me. At first, I was intimidated by the length of this book. It took me great courage to start reading it. In the beginning, the plot started slow but it picked it up after 100 pages, and everything happened fast. I certainly didn't want this series to end. I'm going to miss these characters a lot. The book was a fascinating closure for this splendid series. It was the most extraordinary adventure I had in these past years with this sequel.

 

 

 

4- The Nevernight Chronicles (The first two books):

 

WOW!! I started reading this book with low expectations. I heard so much about it but I didn't expect that this Master Piece worth all this hype. I was going to DNF at the beginning but I forced myself and kept reading it. And I loved each word written it. The world-building was original, the characters were all ruthless and fearless, and the writing was so vivid. Ah! I can't tell you how much I loved this book

 

3- All your Perfects: 

 

And now I confirmed that Colleen Hoover is my favorite author!! The story is about a married couple; Quinn and Graham, which they are madly in love. But something got into their marriage and tried to rip them apart. And that something is Infertility. I went into this amazing story blindly. I didn't know a thing about it. And like any other  Colleen Hoover's books, they get me hooked and I can't put them. 

I enjoyed each word written in it. The writing was light and easy to read yet it was full of emotions and heavy feelings. Each scene passed in was so vivid and full of life. And this what made this book in the top favorite read of this year.

 

 

 

2-Hunger Games:

 

One day I was bored and I needed a quick small book. So I picked The Hunger Games. The first chapters were childish but then when the game began I couldn't put this book down. Maan!! The suspense in it made my heart beat faster and faster in each chapter I read it. It was a stunning read and it blew my mind!

 

 

 

 

 

 

1- Harry Potter series:

 

 In the past, I only read the first two books. So this year I decided to continue reading it. And God!! It was an amazing beautiful adventure. I don't know how to express my feelings about this amazing series. Harry Potter was always my favorite story of all the time but when I read the books, it became the number one story in my life. Harry Potter has a special place in my heart and no book can take its place.

 

 

 

 

What about you?! Let me know what were your favorite reads!!

Review: Strange the Dreamer

Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5/5

I didn't love it but I really enjoy it.

The plot:
Once upon a time, an orphaned boy called Lazlo Strange. He likes stories and loves collecting them, and what fascinated him more, a city called weep. But this city was a myth to his people. Whenever he brings a discussion about Weep, they laughed at him and called him Strange the Dreamer.
However, Lazlo didn't give up. he spent 7 years collecting anything related to this Unseen city. Until one day, a great Weep's warrior came to Lazlo's city. He wanted some of the finest scientists and alchemists in the city. So, Strange saw this as an opportunity to go and visit this mysterious magical city. Except, Lazlo was no scientist nor alchemist. Therefore, he talked to the great warrior and convinced him that he knows this city more than anyone does. Even the great warrior was very interested in Lazlo.
Finally, Lazlo's dream came true, and so this journey begins...


My opinion:
I really liked the story. It was so magical and whimsical . In the beginning, I was going to DNF it because the plot was so slow and the writing was different from what I have read. But, my friend told me that you're going to love it just keep reading it. So, I did as I was told and it wasn't bad. The plot was picking up slowly but it was adventurous.
I really love the main character Lazlo. he was so naive yet intelligent, caring, and very kind. This character made the world so vivid and cheerful to me.


However, what I didn't like in this story; is the names of the cities and characters. Maan!! I was struggling with spelling their names. Also, I didn't like the slow pace of this plot, it made it so boring especially in the first chapters.
Overall, I enjoyed it and I'm really eager to start the second book.
Actually, I'm reading it!!
