2018 was a very satisfying year for me as far as reading is concerned. I was able to read a total of twenty nine books which I feel is quite an achievement for me. My reading journey throughout the year has been beautiful which finally led me to start reviewing books on Instagram and then finally being able to start my book blog in July, 2018. It’s been a wonderful year for me and I completely owe it to reading. I read a good number of books in 2018, some were those which I’ve been looking forward to since a long time, some were gifted, some were review copies and some were out of my comfort zone and were completely new for me. 2018 has been a roller coaster ride for me and I feel that I’ve read many types of books this year.

As I’ve mentioned already in a lot of my blog posts...
