  1. Wow. What a list. You must have read non stop all year. I love Adele Parks, the Hunger Games and Harry Potter. There’s a few authors I’ve never heard of.

    This is some list! I have read a few of Harry Potter, others not yet. I hav eto check our library if they have them;)) Great challenge 50 books;) I’ll see where I end up after a year;) I also love reading… #bestandworst

  3. Oh wow! I’ve struggled to get to the end if one book let alone 77. That’s impressive!

    I love the Harry Potter sets and could read those time and time again.

  4. Just wow! I used to read non-stop but really slowed down since I’ve started blogging – I need to change that because I adore reading! Will refer back to your list lovely and reviews x #BloggerClubUK

    Oh my word – I’m useless at sitting down to read a book, I’ll probably never read anywhere near this many!! 🙂 #BloggerClubUK

  6. The only one I’ve ready from this list is Grey. I always wanted to read the Harry Potter series but I’ve seen the movies and I dislike reading the book after seeing the movie. I prefer to read the book first, but I didn’t get my hands on those books fast enough.

    In 2016 I didn’t read as much as I usually do because Peachy was a newborn and that gobbled up a lot of reading time. I did manage to get through all of Jane Austen’s novels, the latest John Irving book, a Harper Lee novel, and a few others. I also read the entire Peter Rabbit series 3 times, a stack of Dr. Seuss books, and a small mountain of miscellaneous kids books.

  7. Bloomin heck you weren’t kidding!! Wow I’m impressed! I’ve read one of those – Grey! I just don’t have the time these days. Holidays are my opportunity but since doing this blog it’s taken over. I need to schedule in some reading time. There’s lots there that are right up my street. #bloggerclubuk

  8. What a list!!! I love reading, I used to read a couple of books a week at least but since I had the kids I just don’t have the time and by evening I’m too tired to concentrate! You have inspired me to read a book again though, I miss it so much! #BloggerClubUK

    I’m in awe! I’m always so determined to read more and it just never seems to happen! Now I’m totally inspired, thank you! #BloggerClubUK

    That’s an impressive list of books! I set the bar low last year at 12 books and didn’t manage that – although this year I’d like to read more! Love the Harry Potter books, seeing them on your list makes me want to go and re-read them 🙂 #bloggerclubuk

  11. Oh we have such a similar taste in books. You should check out the three by Sarah lotz (I think, can’t see it on the shelf from here), you’ll like that. #bloggerclubuk

  12. Ehm, I feel totally embarrassed that I haven’t read any, but then again, I’ve only read non-fiction for a number of years now. I’m completely stunned that you read probably over 80 books (or more?) in a year. It’s impressive! Congrats! You’re a genius! #BloggersClubUK

    My kids have read quite a few of these, I recognize the titles, they aren’t ones that appeal to me though, they keep trying to get me to read some of them but they are too fantasy based for me. 50 in a year is impressive. I probably do 1 or 2 a month so I’m way behind you. #BloggerClubUK

  14. *follow on from above*

    “I did something similar last year (a week is too silly)
    I could remember most books by the end of the year but there were 3 on the list I had no recollection of reading or even what the plot was.

    • Actually there were several on this list where I vaguely recognised the cover and that was about it – I actually checked back on to some of my reviews of them to check I had them right! So glad I’m not the only one this happens to!

  15. I used to be the teenager who wandered around the house with her nose stuck in a book. These days, the only literature I get to read is Julia Donaldson or some regurgitation of a Disney Princess story! #BloggerClubUK

  16. I love that you’ve delved into teen fiction, which is always fun. I think if I had that pile of books to get through I would lose weeks of my life all in one go; I’ve got no discipline about putting books down when they are good!

  17. Mummy Bee

    I think I might set myself this challenge to read at least 50 books this year. I used to really enjoy reading but can’t find the time as the baby takes up all my time and the rest of the time I just want to sleep. #BloggerClubUK

  18. What a lot of books. I read Harry Potter and while back and Elizabeth is missing is on my list of books to read. I’m hoping when my kids are older to rediscover my love of reading #bloggerclubuk

  19. My jaw just hit the ground! OMG! How? When?! I just about find enough time to read blogs! So amazing that you could read all of these books and still do all you do, very inspirational and I shall be aiming to actually get round to reading a book in the near future now. #bloggerclubuk

    I love the way you have compiled this list, also I think it is a nice thing to look back on years to come and remember 2016 and the books you read. I need to start to keep a note of what I read. I do read a lot but on different mediums: ‘real’ books, kindle and audio. The only ones on your list I have read are the Harry Potter, but I am going to look up a few of these.

  21. Some excellent books in there. And so many of them. Well done. I’m doing the British Book Challenge this year. It only requires 1 book a month. I think I can manage that lol

    Wow that’s a lot of books! I love reading but only managed to tackle the Harry Potter series with starting a few books without actually finishing them annoyingly! #bloggerclubuk

  23. I’ve read the Strain books, The Sword of Truth novels, Angel Time, and have Revival sitting on my shelf waiting. Good for you. I’ve been making a real effort lately to try and get back to reading more. Unfortunately thats not the first time I’ve said that!

  24. absolutely prabulous

    After being the classic book worm til the age of 15, I just stopped reading. I briefly got back into it a few years ago and even got a – shock horror – kindle but I just don’t read anymore. Just blogs!! I’ve no idea how you have time to read this many books, oh my. Even before kids, I couldn’t have managed!
