Winter Book Wrap Up

So I haven’t been reading like crazy these past months but I have been regularly reading two books a month at least which I am please about. I have just been a bit lazy doing my wrap ups apologies. My favourite would have to be Belle Revolte about two women swapping lives to study different magic systems. I read some awesome middle grade books as well that I am excited to share with you. Let me know in the comments how your reading is going this winter and what has been your favourite read so far?
