Earlier last year I posted all the books I had read during the first six months of the year and chose my favourite six (https://victoria-writes.com/2016/07/07/books-read-january-june-2016/) so here is what I read in the second half of the year:
My six favourites from July to December were:
I love Colleen Hoover’s books. I’m always gripped straight away and there’s always a twist to her love stories, often a dark one.
A dark coming-of-age book about two teenage girls who have an intense friendship which spirals out of control. Absorbing and unsettling. Also set in the 1990’s which I loved.
A book about a group of friends who are leaving university. We follow them through their lives and the twists and turns of their friendship. A great summer read.
A moving story of a couple who make a decision that will carry many consequences. Set on a remote island where they tend the lighthouse, I was gripped quickly and was left with tears in my eyes.
This book started out with a lot of similarities to Twilight except that this is about witchcraft but then the story came into its own and had a great twist leaving me wanting to read the sequel immeadiately.
I loved this true life story of a man whose life was changed by a ginger cat. It’s an easy and moving read and left me with a big smile on my face. I then read the next two books and bought a Bob calendar haha!!
What books stood out for you in 2016? Anything you’d recommend I put on my reading list for this year?

A Street Cat Named Bob looks both interesting and adorable. I’m definitely looking it up on Goodreads 😀
It’s a lovely story!
These look like great reads, especially Bob! Did you read The Nightingale? That was one of my faves for the year.
Happy New Year!!!
He’s so cute! No I haven’t, I look it up thank you. Happy New Year!!
