Books I MUST Read Before the End of the Year

I'm setting my December reading list out here so that someone out there can hold me accountable and make sure I read all the books I've committed to! I've seen others do this and thought it was a great idea. I should really have posted this at the end of November but at least now I can say I have read the first two on my list :) To reach this year's Goodreads challenge I'll need to read all of these.

Amari and the Night Brothers - B.B. Alston

This proof is really exciting, it's for a blog tour and I recently got my date of 13th Dec. I'm happy to say I finished this one! You will be able to read my review soon, spoiler alert I really enjoyed it.

The Word Trove - Elias Vorpahl 

I got this from Readers First and need to review for the release date though there are so many conflicting dates and I only just received this at the end of November!

The Vine Eater - Carol Beth Anderson

An audiobook I got free for review but I had no many library reserves come through I didn't have time to get to this till now. It's the sequel to The Frost Eater and actually part of a trilogy which I don't think I realised till now. I have started listening and I'm enjoying it so far.

Specter - Katie Jane Gallagher

This is my last book for BBNYA (Book Bloggers Novel of the Year Award) and I have a deadline which is coming up very soon!

The Mirroculist Mission and The Mirrors Shattered - A.J. Hartley

This trilogy was sent to me with a very reasonable reading window and I have still managed to fall behind! I really enjoyed the first book, Monsters in the Mirror and I'm excited to continue on with the series.

Half A King - Joe Abercrombie

This was a birthday present and I don't know much about it but it sounds all twisty and mysterious. The cover looks so good and I'm excited to get to it!  

The Elephant in the Room - Holly Goldberg Sloan

This one looked so pretty, I jumped at the chance of a proof. It's quite short so I should be able to get this one read and reviewed quickly.

Owl and the Lost Boy - Amy Wilson

Threadneedle - Cari Thomas

The Magpie Society: One for Sorrow - Amy McCulloch & Zoe Sugg

These were wishes that came true on NetGalley and I feel so bad that I didn't get to the them right away, even though I fully intended to! Also Owl and the Lost Boy will help me with one of the last few prompts for A-Z readathon and I do love Amy Wilson's books so much.

The Vanishing Trick - Jenni Spangler

Another audiobook, this time from the library, it expires soon so I need to listen asap.

Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky - Kwame Mbalia

I've been wanting to read this for ages and it has finally been chosen for the Middle Grade Marvels book club. However as it has only just arrived I have not been able to start yet and I've missed the first week of the book club.

Do you have a TBR list for December to finish off the year? Have you read any of these, if so let me know which I should read first.
