Six in Six – 2018 Edition

We have crossed the halfway mark of the year!

I am not a big meme doer. I have done just the one :#Flashbackfriday- July 2017 but I have been reading the ones put up by all those other bloggers. A few of the tags that I was tempted to attempt did not really get done because I was unable to find answers to many of the questions.

This time I thought I would set myself a challenge to see if I could limit myself to finding books that fit the six categories that I have chosen out of the ones provided by the host.

The meme is hosted by Jo @ The Book Jotter ( do check out link for all those interesting categories) and is a way to share the books we have read in the first six months of the year. In fact it is to share six books in six categories. I am just listing out books that I have reviews of so that I can tempt people to go check them out! Since I have trouble limiting my books list and for additional variety, I try not to repeat the books in the categories though we are allowed to.Do link back to the host site if you want to do this meme too!

I have linked the reviews of the books from the cover pages and I jumped with joy when I managed to (sort of) successfully fill all categories.

• Six books I have enjoyed the most

Here I include books that may not necessarily have made me feel happy ( as the word enjoyed might hint), but have given me a thrill.

        

• Six From the Non-Fiction Shelf

This has been a new phase in my reading life, and I am happy that I am widening my horizons if only for all the extra books it brings into my life.

     

• Six books I’ve read in an English translation

I never thought I would be one of those people who would appreciate something translated (having had some trouble liking books translated from a few regional languages back home, years ago) but translators have really outclassed themselves.

      

• Six books that I was disappointed with ( did not like as much as most others seemed to)

Surprisingly, there were a lot of books that I did not enjoy as much all all those glowing reviews by others seemed to indicate they did!

     

• Six book covers I love

This is a hard one, I tend to choose books in the library  more on the basis of covers so I am going to try and keep this list limited to the physical books I have read.

      

• Six series of books read or started

I am a big fan of series’ . It makes me happy ( most times) to follow the lives of the familiar people like a saga. I wish I could tweak this to only include series with six books but that would probably be asking for too much!
