According to my Goodreads profile, I read 36 books in 2021.

I love all different genres but I generally find myself with mostly mystery, crime and thriller books. I will honestly give any book a go. I used to make myself finish a book, even if I wasn’t enjoying it but as I got older, I realised that life is too short. I do usually give them another go at some point as sometimes, I have to be in the right mood for certain books.

The following books, in no particular order, were my favourite books of 2021.

Exoskeleton — Shane Stadler

“A convict is given a choice at his sentencing: Serve a 25-year prison term, or spend one year in an experimental corrections program. As his only hope for redemption, he opts for the latter, and finds himself in a horrific situation that transforms him into something the world has never seen. EXOSKELETON is a dark, dark ride along the border between science fiction and horror”

This was the longest book I read last year, it mixes some futuristic ideas, with some history and I loved that! I love when a book that is about something that idea seems a bit out there yet, its also quite possible that its actually happening somewhere in the world. I felt fear for the main character and was really rooting for him and despised the individuals he had the misfortune of encountering. It made me wonder if the author knows something we don’t, especially once I saw his bio!
