Book Log 2024
Hello I’m Denny and I used to think reading isn’t for me. I got tired of social media sapping my braincells and one day I said “I am gonna sit down and I am gonna read.” It was pretty hard at first. I found out I need headphones with nature sounds to help me focus. Then it gradually became easier and easier. I kept visiting bookstores during my lunch breaks and started to be more brave with picking books which covers and premises sounded good to me. I also found out I read much faster and easier into English…go figure. And now I’m happy to pick a book and loose myself for a day or so
I have a small backlog of books waiting my attention but I also want to list all I’ve finished primary because I want to give myself a pat on the back and be like – See? You read all of these!! I’m so proud of you!
As for what genres I read – I enjoy thrillers and murder mystery but recently poked some fantasy and romance books. I also tend to prefer reading fantasy and romances in summer and the more scary books in autumn!
