Book Reviews

On this page are my book reviews, and you can scroll down to the bottom to access my Goodreads account where you can follow me directly. You can also access my Goodreads account on the drop down bar. I give a rating out of 5 stars so check out what I read. 

What do I read?

For instance, the genres of books I read in order of popularity are young adult, romance, contemporary, science fiction, classics, LGBTQIA+ and dystopian. In addition, the most common moods I read are emotional, adventurous, light hearted, reflective, dark and mysterious. I also read medium paced books the most, followed by fast paced and the least with slow paced. Furthermore, most books I read are between 300-499 pages, but I have read books under 300 pages and others over 500 pages. Although, if you’re a non fiction lover, you will not enjoy that I read very few and prefer reading fiction. However, the non-fiction that I do enjoy is mainly political or historical novels, with a left-leaning or centrist perspective, so make sure to keep that in mind.

How many books have I read?

So far I have rated 150 books with an average of 3.75 stars out of 5. Therefore, most books I give 4 stars, followed by 3 stars and quite a few 5 stars. Remember that these are all my opinion which may be different from yours. Expect to see much more coming as I read at least a book a month.

A bar chart of my average rating of books I read. The columns in order of height are 4 stars (high 40), 3 stars (mid 40), 5 stars (low 40), 2 stars (low 10) and 1 star (low 5). This is one part of my book reviews.

How did I get this data?

If you want to know how I got all this data, check out https://app.thestorygraph.com/. Firstly, it’s a great app that sorts your data into nice bar graphs and pie charts. Secondly, it compiles all your data from your Goodreads account, which you have to export. Thirdly, the app is free, but there is a premium version if you want extra features.
