A mini-review of all the books I read in February 2021

Greetings! It has been awhile since I have wrote about what I have been reading so I thought I would share the books I read in February 2021.

For my 2021 Goodreads challenge I set a goal of reading 30 books this year which is lower then the 44 books I read in 2020. I wanted to read a bit less this year because I am planning on reading some longer books.

As of today, March 15, I am ahead of schedule and have read 8 books so far!

I will likely finish another two this month from my currently reading list below.

Here is what I read in February….

Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari

This was such a good read!
I’ve seen this book floating around the internet for a few years now as it has been on multiple bestseller lists.
This book covers the history of humans from the origin until the present day.
The thing I liked the most about this book was that the author made you question everything we assume about life and the works we live in.
If you like history and books that make you think deeply I highly recommend this one.

Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life by Hector Garcia Puigcerver

A very interesting book that I plan on reading again. This book uncovers the secrets behind Japanese longevity and happiness.
I am hoping to incorporate some of these ideas into my life and see how it turns out.

Sword Song by Bernard Cornwall

Sword Song is the 4th book in the Saxon Stories series that the hit Netflix show, The Last Kingdom, is based on.
I absolutely love this series! I find the books to be far better than the Netflix show.
It is so well written that I can’t put the books down once I start them.
