Even though I am no longer supporting the author of the series this readathon is based on I (being the pedantic completionist I am) felt the need to finish off and complete the NEWTS this month!

Overall I had a pretty solid reading month, I ended up completing 14 books! I pretty much loved all of the books I read, there were a couple that were just ok but I’m really happy with what I ended up picking up!
For the Top 10 Tuesday prompt this week I decided to go with 5 books that I bought specifically because of the covers! This post is completely subjective as everyone has their own preferences when it comes to book covers, but these are a few books I’ve acquired in the last year that have captured my attention!
Loveboat, Taipei by Abigail Hing Wen
Wicked Fox by Kat Cho
Crown of Feathers by Nicki Pau Preto
Aurora Rising by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
This illustrated edition of The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien
These are my favourite books that I read this year. I realise not all of them were released in 2019 but it was when I read them all and I absolutely LOVED each and every one of these books.
So in no particular order these are my Top 10 Favourite Books of the Year:
