Yeah, doesn't look like January was a particularly productive month for reading, was it? There are a few factors to this but I'll go into those in a bit and discuss more the books I read and why it wasn't the biggest numbers this month.

There was quite an array of different genres throughout the month, so that was good. There was one historical fiction novel, one contemporary fiction,…

Every month I read some books, and then what I do is write a blog article about those books with a short summary of my review and a link to the full review. This way you can see what I've read and you can see what I thought of those books - genius eh? Every book blogger does it? Oh, ok. Anyway, here are the five books I read in December.

At the end of each month, I post a list and a short summary of every single book I've read that month. Below, you'll find the three books I managed to finish this month. Obviously each of these books I had to have finished, not just read some of. This means books I started and didn't finish (because I have put them aside for example) do not appear on this list.

Based on my previous end-of-the-month round-ups, this seems about as many as I can fit into a month. In short: I've read some fantastic books this month with two of those I've reviewed so far have been five-star reads. There might also be a very controversial review depending on how…

Every month I post an update on the blog posts that did well from the previous month. So guess what I'm going to do this month? Yeah, the same. The top five articles from September include three book reviews and two feature articles. It's always fascinating to see which articles do well each month and see if they match up with the articles I thought would do well when I posted them. There is also the obvious argument that the earlier the post goes up in the month, the better chance it has to perform well as it has been on for longer. However, it is always even more interesting when the posts aren't in order of date and one blog post does well simply because it was more popular.…

Every month I like to look back and see which posts from those I posted did the best. This not only allows me to keep a historical archive of which articles have done the best so I can then use these going forward or when I need to look back for inspiration but it also allows me to share content with those of you who are aspiring bloggers. These posts below are the top five performing meaning they received the most amount of views from the month. These posts have all been posted within this month. If I posted the top five most-viewed articles each month that weren't posted in that month, they'd all be fairly similar and repetitive. So here are the top five most viewed blog posts from…
