Best Books I read this year:
The colour Purple: This is probably my top book this year and so i couldn't really bear to give it a rating. I wasn't sure I would enjoy it at first when I heard the premise, especially because the beginning of it is so dark and has lots of dark things within it such as rape. This book is all amount woman empowerment and I just loved it. I would probably put an age rating on this, probably 16 plus I think there are a lot of bit's where even I couldn't read because it was so upsetting ect and there's a bit of sexual content as well. Also don't read if you're triggered by reading about rape. But in all seriousness this is one of the best books I've read and I'd definitely recommend it.

Mindset: This is the only non fiction book I read this year and oh  my god it's life changing. I read it as extra reading for my psychology course and it teaches all about how to change you're mindset to a more positive one so that you can get better results from all aspects of your life. love!

Worst books I read this year: 
Perfume story of a murder: Despite this one being regarded as almost a classic, I really did not enjoy this book. I thought I would really like it because the story line sounds amazing alone but it didn't seem to "kick off" at any point like I found it quite tedious and boring which is a real shame because I had high hopes for it.

Brighton Rock: Again this one probably a lot of people will be annoyed that I put so low, but I personally just did not enjoy the book. It was difficult to read and I didn't really like any of the characters.

Books that destroyed me:
The book theif: I finished this really late at night, and I cried so much I literally ran into my mums room to tell her what happened, the ending killed me.

Allegiant: Last instalment of the divergent trilogy. I got so into this series and then the ending of it... just omg. I was finishing this off on a late night plane and I was the only one awake just sobbing my heart out.

Best Love story
Time Travellers wife: I adored the love story and the characters in this, although it's a bit of a weepy and nearly made my books that destroyed me, it just had to go in here instead, loved Henry and Clare's romance.

Pride and Prejudice: It had to be.

Strangest book:
Knellers happy campers: Okay so I had to talk about this book. It's so incredibly short and yet so good but so strange. It's about a boy who commits suicide and all people that commit suicide go to a special kind of after life and he looks for his girlfriend who also committed suicide and he ends up meeting these other people who travel with him. there's a film based on it called wrist cutters: a love story, which I've never seen, but this was a really odd book that I'd definitely recommend!

Have you read any of these books this year? What did you think!
Lots of love
