Book’s I’ve Read that I didn’t Review

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is books too good to review properly. Since I’ve started this blog I’ve got a habit now of reviewing all the books I read, however there are some circumstances where I just either don’t have enough to say about the book, I’ve already done heaps of reviews that month and didn’t feel a need to post another one or it was a smutty romance. So these are 10 books I have read since starting my blog 4 years ago that I didn’t post a review for!

Books I’ve Read but Won’t be Purchasing

Today I decided to redo a TTT prompt I did around this time last year which was books I’ve read but won’t be purchasing. I’m still somewhat on a book buying ban and have restricted myself to only purchasing books that I’ve rated ⭐️4/5 stars or higher so these are 10 books that I rated lower than that, which I probably won’t be purchasing for my personal collection.
