Top 3 books of the month

II January II

Hello and welcome to the Top 3 Books of the Month column. Each month I will be counting down the top 3 stories that have become very popular and had great reviews. This month is January, and I have been doing a lot of researching to find the top best for you to read. If you haven't already read these amazing stories, be sure to add them to your library! And, be sure you give suggestions in the comments below for what you think should be in the next months Top 3!!

Number 3: The Surgeon by @francisxyzk

Summary: "Hello. My name is Tanya. I'm an eighteen-year-old only child. Tanya isn't my real name; I'm using it as a pseudonym to protect my identity. My name is false, but my story is fact - sadly." That is the beginning to The Surgeon. There isn't exactly a description anywhere, so I decided to just use a bit of the chapter to give you the feel of it. The Surgeon is quite confusing, so I won't go into detail to ruin it. I can tell you that it is an amazing short story. The author hasn't quite finished writing it yet, but I still hope you'll read it. It is kind of gruesome in ways, but it tells a wonderful story, and he really gets into the main character. I believe the genre is horror, if not mystery. Make sure you add it to your library!

 Number 2: My Wattpad Love by @cold_lady19

 Summary: "Julie has always been the shy type. Her world changes when she finds Wattpad, a very popular Ebook community. She becomes addicted to it and even starts posting her own stories. But are friends, fans and votes all she will get from this site? Or is it possible to find love as well?" My Wattpad Love is very romantic, and honestly a bit unrealistic. Finding love on Wattpad isn't to reliable to happen, but the story is still great. The author really gives the feel and emotion, and doesn't rush through it! I diffidently recommend this to you Romantics out there! Check it out :)

 Number 1: The Letter by @giovi_byg21

Summary: Victoria's life has been hell ever since she was little. Her dad abuses her constantly and her mother looks the other way. She feels lost in this world with no help coming her way, but one day she discovers a letter on her bed that will change her life FOREVER." Here is the most popular book on Wattpad right now!!! I went through so many clubs and genres to find the most popular, and I think this one wins with 3,714,452 reads, 92,531 votes, and 18, 905 comments. I was mind blown!!! It took me a bit to read this story, and it was easy to tell what all of the fuss was about! This story is genius!! It's perfect speed, and the characters are really great! You MUST go read this story, it is worth it!
