Sparkling Letters Monthly Recap: December 2016 + Highlights of the Year

Hello everyone! ♥

I know I said this every month but this time I seriously CAN’T BELIEVE December is almost over! 2016 is almost over! It’s true that as we get older time started to fly more quickly 🙈😂 at first I couldn’t decide what to do with this month recap, like should I do a usual monthly recap? Or a yearly recap? I was afraid of being repetitive if I do yearly recap, considering that I already do recaps for every month. So here we are, on my usual recap, but with some additional highlights of the year! ♥

Let’s get started with this month!

Say Goodbye to 2016, My Best Reading Year So Far!

Hello everyone! ♥

I can’t believe that 2016 will be over in 4 days! Is it just me or time really goes faster as we grow older? 😛 this has been such a roller coaster year, a lot of good as well as bad stuffs had happened to me, but more about that on my monthly recap. Today we’ll be talking about BOOKS, obviously.

2016 has been an awesome reading year for me. I read wayyy more than the past three years combined  the thing is I was too busy to read during my university years that I only managed to finish 2-3 books each month. This year, however, was more laid back because I had no more credits to take and only had to work on my thesis. Now let’s take a look at my year in books!

Top 10 Tuesday: 8 Most Favorite 2016 Releases (So Far)

2016 is definitely my best book year of all time! Last week, we put down a list of our most anticipated releases for the remaining year and there are SO MANY on my #TBR list! ♥ This week theme is Top Ten Favorite 2016 Releases So Far This Year which means I’m going to look back and see what incredibly awesome books I’ve read so far!

 

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created here at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We’d love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!

I’m not always up to date when it comes to reading books. Most of books I’ve read this year are actually books from the previous years that I haven’t had the chance to read. I’ve read more than 10 books published this year, but only 8 of them I deemed worthy to make the cut. Sooo this list will only contain 8 books. But don’t worry they’re GREAT! ♥
