5 Books I Want To Read Before The End Of The Year

I haven't had the best reading year in 2019, as I have been so busy with everything else going on in my life to read as much as I would have liked. However, I am wanting to try and make up for that a little bit in the last few weeks of the year and read as many books as I can. There are some books that are high on the priority list to read before the year is over, so let's talk about them.

1. Twas The Nightshift Before Christmas by Adam Kay - 

I mentioned this in the End Of The Year book tag as one that I definitely want to get to before the end of the year. I absolutely loved This Is Going To Hurt by Adam Kay and this is essential a festive follow-on to that. It is another 25 stories from Adam's time as a junior doctor in the NHS, but with a festive twist in that they are all Christmas stories. I can't wait to read this!

2. Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare -

On every 'books I want to read before...' list I do, there is always a Cassandra Clare book. I finally read City Of Glass this year, after putting it off for a year, and I am reading Cassandra Clare's books in publication order, so this is the next one I need to get to. I have been saying that since February but I really do hope to get to it before the end of the year.

3. Christmas With The Bomb Girls by Daisy Styles -

This is the third book in a series I haven't read that was sent to me for review two years ago! I don't know why I accepted it for a start, but I also really should have read it before now. It is historical fiction, which isn't always my cup of tea, but it is also a Christmas book and it is no secret that I love Christmas. I'm going to give it a go, even though I haven't read the rest of the series and don't have a clue what it's about. 

4. Girl Made Of Stars by Ashley Herring Blake -

This was another one I mentioned in the End Of The Year book tag. I have heard so many people rave about this book for the past year and a half and haven't seen a single negative review. I am very intrigued to see if I enjoy it as much as everyone else seems to, so I'm really hoping to get to it before the end of the year. I think it has the potential, judging by all the opinions I have seen, to be a favourite of the year.

5. What Light by Jay Asher - 

Again, this is one I mentioned in the End Of The Year book tag. This is a reread, so I'm not sure if it really counts. I read this a few years ago and really loved it, but I have since seen a lot of negative reviews. I thought it was a really sweet, fun romance with some Christmas fun thrown in and I had a great time reading it. I really want to read it again and see if I have the same thoughts the second time around.

Let's be honest, there are only a couple of weeks left of the year so I'm most likely getting to none of these books before the end of the year, but sometimes it's nice to set unrealistic goals for yourself.

What books are you wanting to get to before the end of the year?
