Hey bookworm friends! It was mostly crickets on here in October but things have calmed down enough for me to come back to blogging now. Luckily, there’s a really fun TTTopic this week I can jump right into! It’s all about one-word reviews but I decided to focus on books that I haven’t reviewed on the blog this year. A lot of these were ones I wanted to review at some point but just didn’t make time for, but there are also some that I just didn’t feel like writing about. Regardless, here are 10 Books I Didn’t Review This Year in One Word.

Have you read any of these books and if so what word would you choose? If you participated in TTT this week feel free to share your link with me 🖤.

What a great take on today’s prompt. Such a nice way to highlight some books you didn’t get to during the year! Added Stealing from Wizards to my list – it sounds like fun.
If only we all had endless time to read, write, and review!
Ooh, I hadn’t come across Us, that one piques my interest!
