All the Books I Read this Year- Sorted

It’s hard to believe, but I read 43 books this year. A lot came from the fact that is a combo of easy and hard reads, and that some were rereads. In addition, I didn’t start working until October- so I had more time to read. Now, what were those books?

Chronicles of Narnia (a reread)

1. Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe
2. Prince Caspian
3. Voyage of the Dawn Treader
4. Silver Chair
5. Horse and His Boy
6. Magician’s Nephew
7. Last Battle
   1. Well, I planned to start the year with Chronicles of Narnia, a series I hadn’t read for a number of years. I barley knew four of the books- as in the ones that never became a film. So, I was looking forward to rediscovering the parts I had totally forgot about.

Howl’s Series

1. Castle in the Air
2. House of Many Doors
   1. True, it was a weird series, but still enjoyable. If you don’t read Howl’s Moving Castle, you will not understand the next two.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians (a reread)

1. Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief
2. Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters
3. Percy Jackson and the Titan’s Curse
4. Percy Jackson and the Battle of the Labyrinth
5. Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian
   1. I first read the series in middle school, and this time around, I saw things I didn’t notice that time around. For instance, I was able to pick up on Percy’s crush for Annabeth- glad I noticed it.

Heroes of Olympus

1. The Lost Hero
2. Son of Neptune
3. Mark of Athena
4. House of Hades
5. Blood of Olympus
   1. Tip: if you want to read this series, read Percy Jackson and the Olympians. You will understand to better. That was the reason why I reread Percy Jackson. Just as original as Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Glad to find both old and new characters- my favorite new character was Leo (well, it does includes Festus- yes, a metal dragon)

Nevermoor Series

1. Nevermoor: Trials of Morrigan Crow
2. Wundersmith: Calling of Morrigan Crow
3. Hollowpox: The Hunt for Morrigan Crow
   1. Love this series that I can’t wait for the other books to come out
