Best Books I read in 2021

It's crazy to think that this is officially my last blog post of 2021. I will see you soon in 2022 now! Wrapping up the year 2021, I have read 166 published books this year and a bunch of other Wattpad books. Originally at the start of 2021, I had kept my reading goal for 80 books, but I realized I had hit that goal too soon in August and bumped it up to 100. In September, I went on a total reading spree and finished 33 books which, I am not going to lie, shocked me as well.  I calmed down in October a bit because I had my Term I exams, but I went on a mini-reading spree again with my best friend in November.

As you all might know, it's June which mean it's Pride month! 🏳‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 Pride Month is the month where we celebrate the lives of those people part of the LGBTQ+ community. I read a few new LGBTQ+ books this month, and I've read many from before as well. I read one of the books I am going to mention like 2-3 days ago only, and yes, I liked that book that much for it to make it onto my favourites instantly).  I thought if I can make my bullet journal pride-themed I can also do a blog post on my favourite LGBTQ+ Books! Now this list would not specifically contain only LGBTQ+ romance. It'll have a book that showcases the LGBTQ+ community even though the main plot does not revolve around their romance.  Most of the LGBTQ+ books I have read on Wattpad, and I might be making a recommendation on that soon, but all of the books I am going to mention here are the ones that are actually published books.  1.
