Blog update

This is a different kind of post as my normal book reviews but it's been a while since I posted anything here so figured I'd update it a little. Around the time of my last book review my books started piling up and after a while I knew I'm not going to review all of them. Just no time or interest really. I didn't know which books to do though so I kept pushing it back and back and you can see what happened. I read a lot of lovely books this years. If you want to see my full list my username on Goodreads is also Kupari. I challenged myself there to read 52 books this year and only managed 41. I'm still happy because most of the books I finished were great. I also managed to weed out books I'll never read again which means little less chaos on my bookshelves.

This year I'll take part on another book challenge. On 30th so in two days, book list will be announced and I'll try reading as many books as I can that fit the list. It's organized by certain Finnish library group I think and this is my first year participating. To give you a better idea here are few things from this year's list.

1. Book about food
2. Book were people fall in love
3. Book that is not written in your mothertongue.
4. Book about libraries.
5. A play
6. A children's book
7. Book written by African writer

List goes on to 50 so there is lots of themes and books that will broaden my reading world. All I know from the 2017 challenge is a teaser that showed a bride so maybe we'll have read a book about marriage? Will be interesting to see. I hope to bring you guys with me to this journey and maybe I can even get book recommendations for some of the tough parts of the list.

In any case I hope everyone has a happy new year and we'll see again next year!
