Most Surprising Reads of 2020! | BOOKMAS DAY 3

[@govindarajuluvenkatesan3529]

I loved the Scythe series sooo much! Glad that you enjoyed it too😁

[@romae.22]

Me too! It’s one of the most original book concepts that I’ve ever read, too

[@mariadaisa806]

I'm sooo glad to hear that you liked "Beartown"!! I definitely loved it! But I didn't want to read the sequel because I just thought that the ending of "Beartown" was perfect and shouldn't be different. "Anxious people" is the newest book of Fredrik Backman and it is AWESOME! You definitely should give it a try. "Pride and prejudice" surprised me as well and ended up being one of my favorites from 2020.

OK. You've finally convinced me to read Frederick Backman! I will definitely start off 2021 by reading Bear Town and Thunderhead. Thanks for the inspiration!

Backman

YAAAAAY!! 🥰

Bear Town was SO emotionally intense for me that I am actually terrified for the sequel and have been holding off on it for almost a year now LOL. I know exactly what you mean, I knew so many people loved it, but I was NOT expecting how deep and dark it was going to go! Ooooooooo I always forget that I own Red, White & Royal Blue!!!!!! I am so excited to read that one and I'm so glad to know it's not just a simple romcom :)

Ashley I'm having a good time watching your Bookmas videos, looking forward for the rest of them and of course I'm looking forward to read Scythe saga on January and Beartown as well!! Greetings!!

[@rosepetalpages]

Pride and Prejudice and Scythe were both surprising reads for me too, I loved them so much and both are on my favorite reads of the year list! I've also heard really great things about The Silence of Bones and am excited to read that at some point!

[@lenniejoaquin7091]

The bone season! All i knew was that it was sci-fi and im not a scifi person but op- it was so much more!

[@evareads2817]

Oh I really liked scythe as well ❤️😊

[@elenichamou1791]

The Raven Boys was one of my most surprising reads this year

[@Niyati99]

oh my god, same!

[@safinan8008]

Merry Christmas!! 🎄☃️❄️📖

[@inkpage3769]

Scythe was a big surprise for me as well! I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did, especially since I read it a few months into the pandemic!

[@mariachirica4377]

Radio silence by Alice Oseman was my most surprising book of this year. I loved it so much! I was not sure when I started it if I'm gonna like it, but it ended up being one of my favourite books of the year!

[@jonathonbalentine2041]

Off topic but where is your outfit from

[@charityyoder9028]

The girl who played with fire is probably mine. The girl with the dragon tattoo kind of traumatized me because I wasn't expecting the content. So I went in not expecting much. Come to find out, the series perfectly aligns with my reading tastes nowadays. Go figure.

[@TheBookishMom]

Scythe was so good!

[@maxsparza6944]

You should do your top 2020 books

[@adashofash]

We’re building up to that lol wait for day 8 or 9! 🤪

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Yessss RW&RB is so good 😍

[@monicamerle1417]

My most surprising book released in 2020 was THE SISTERS GRIMM by Menna Van Pragg. It's great and very underrated. Highly recommended

[@ZeeZeeDreaming]

So off topic but your outfit is so cute!

[@adashofash]

Thank you! 🥰

[@kessandrajs8314]

im HEREEEE

[@lahlybird895]

So we're not going to mention the tyrants tomb then?

[@sumitraspov]

Us against you is the second book in the Beartown series and it's more of political approach. Also I don't want to be the annoying one but his name is pronounced as Fredrik Baakman
