Well, it has been quite the year. It's been filled with many ups and downs for me personally, but I'd like to take a moment to celebrate all of the awesome books I read throughout 2017. I haven't reviewed a book on this blog since August, so I'm definitely overdue for gushing about all things bookish.
Last year, I participated in the End of Year Survey created by Jamie at The Perpetual Page-Turner and enjoyed it so much I've decided to do it again. There are a lot of questions on the survey, so I'll only be answering some of them.
2017 Reading Stats
Number of books read: 57
As you can see, I didn't reach my goal of reading 70 books this year, but I did read fifteen more books than last year so I'm calling that progress. Plus, 57/70 is 81% which means I earned a B.
Number of re-reads: 8
Genre I read the most from: tied between Contemporary and Fantasy
