A look back at 2012 books!

2012 brought us some very good books, and also ended some much loved series. I thought I would make a post and show you guys some of my favourite books from 2012! 

You have probably seen these books mentioned time after time on my blog this year (some more than others), but these are definitely some of my favourite books of 2012, that have made such an impression. All of these helped me to complete my good reads 2012 reading competition :D. 

 I cant wait to see what books 2013 brings us (CLOCKWORK PRINCESS & IF I SHOULD DIE!), hopefully it brings us many more excellent books!

Happy New Year guys!

Bye for now :D

Help!

If anyone could spare a minute or so to answer it then please do, and no you don't have to do photography to answer it!

I promise I will be back to blogging about books tomorrow!
Bye for now :)

❅❅ All I Want For Christmas, Book Four! ❅❅

Book four is still from my Christmas list, and as I mentioned before it is the last book from the 'A Song of Ice And Fire' series, that I asked for.

A Dance with Dragons 2: After The Feast - George R.R Martin

Part of the 'A Song of Ice And Fire' series

'The future of the Seven Kingdoms hangs in the balance.

In King’s Landing the Queen Regent, Cersei Lannister, awaits trial, abandoned by all those she trusted; while in the eastern city of Yunkai her brother Tyrion has been sold as a slave. From the Wall, having left his wife and the Red Priestess Melisandre under the protection of Jon Snow, Stannis Baratheon marches south to confront the Boltons at Winterfell. But beyond the Wall the wildling armies are massing for an assault…

On all sides bitter conflicts are reigniting, played out by a grand cast of outlaws and priests, soldiers and skinchangers, nobles and slaves. The tides of destiny will inevitably lead to the greatest dance of all.'

Book Four! Only two more to go after this one, and then it's Christmas! Debating wether or not to do Christmas day's 'All I Want For Christmas' as a video, showing what book I got, or just keep it as a text post. Hmmmm, will have to see what I feel like on the day!

Bye for now :)

❅❅ All I Want For Christmas, Book Three! ❅❅

This is the third in the All I Want For Christmas posts, even though im doing it straight after book two! This book is also off of my Christmas list this year!

A Dance With Dragons 1: Dreams and Dust - George R.R. Martin

Part of the 'A Song Of Ice And Fire' series

'A DANCE WITH DRAGONS: DREAMS AND DUST is the FIRST part of the fifth volume in the series.
In the aftermath of a colossal battle, new threats are emerging from every direction.
Tyrion Lannister, having killed his father, and wrongfully accused of killing his nephew, King Joffrey, has escaped from King’s Landing with a price on his head.
To the north lies the great Wall of ice and stone – a structure only as strong as those guarding it. Eddard Stark's bastard son Jon Snow has been elected 998th Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch. But Jon has enemies both inside and beyond the Wall.
And in the east Daenerys Targaryen struggles to hold a city built on dreams and dust.'

Yes another from the 'A Song of Ice And Fire' series! Im sorry there has been so many of them in this All I Want For Christmas, but I started the series with the first three books and really loved it as I have said before, so I thought asking for some more for christmas was a good idea! There is one more book from this series in these All I Want For Christmas post's but after that they are completely different books I swear!

Bye  for now :)

❅❅ All I Want For Christmas, Book Two! ❅❅

For the second book in this All I Want For Christmas thing I am doing, I have chosen the second book on my christmas list, which yet again has been mentioned on my blog in the past.

A Feast For Crows - George R. R. Martin

Part of the 'A Song Of Ice And Fire' series.

'After centuries of bitter strife and fatal treachery, the seven powers dividing the land have decimated one another into an uneasy truce. But it's not long before the survivors, outlaws, renegades, and carrion eaters of the Seven Kingdoms gather. Now, as the human crows assemble over a banquet of ashes, daring new plots and dangerous new alliances are formed while surprising faces—some familiar, others only just appearing—emerge from an ominous twilight of past struggles and chaos to take up the challenges of the terrible times ahead. Nobles and commoners, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and sages, are coming together to stake their fortunes...and their lives. For at a feast for crows, many are the guests—but only a few are the survivors.'

This has been mentioned before with the first three books of this series, and yesterdays All I Want For Christmas book was the book before this in the series.

I know I slacked again on blogging, but I am about to catch up on the All I Want For Christmas posts!

Bye for now :)

❅❅ All I Want For Christmas, Book One! ❅❅

To start off the book a day until christmas I have chosen the first one on my christmas list, which has also been mentioned on my blog in the past!

A Storm of Swords 2: Blood And Gold - George R. R. Martin

Part of the 'A Song of Ice And Fire' series

Split into two books for the paperback, the third volume in George R.R. Martin's superb and highly acclaimed epic fantasy A Song of Ice and Fire continues the richest, most exotic and mesmerising saga since The Lord of the Rings. The Seven Kingdoms are divided by revolt and blood feud, and winter approaches like an angry beast. Beyond the Northern borders, wildlings leave their villages to gather in the ice and stone wasteland of the Frostfangs. From there, the renegade Brother Mance Rayder will lead them South towards the Wall. Robb Stark wears his new-forged crown in the Kingdom of the North, but his defences are ranged against attack from the South, the land of House Stark's enemies the Lannisters. His sisters are trapped there, dead or likely yet to die, at the whim of the Lannister boy-king Joffrey or his depraved mother Cersei, regent of the Iron Throne. And Daenerys Stormborn will return to the land of her birth to avenge the murder of her father, the last Dragon King on the Iron Throne.

I have mentioned that I have the first 3 books in the 'A Song Of Ice And Fire' series, which I love, so naturally I put the fourth book down on my christmas list, as well as season one of Game of Thrones! I hope I get this book, as I really want to read on, but if I don't get it for christmas I will buy it for myself :).

That was the first book! Im not sure how to change this up a bit for the rest of the days so it's not quite as boring, but I will try to make it a bit more interesting for you guys!

Bye for now :)

❅❅ All I want for christmas! ❅❅

So I know I havent really been blogging much over the past few weeks but I have had a lot of stuff going on with university, among other things! But now its the christmas holidays and I have no excuse not to blog for you guys!

I thought it might be cool to do post a book each day from now until christmas, which is on my christmas list/ want to read list. I might also post at the end, the ones I actually got, im not sure! I have no idea if this will be that great but it's worth a shot, and it will be lots of blogging to make up for me being silent for a few weeks!
