A huge thank you to Carrie Gelson at There is a Book for That for organizing all the readers. It was inspirational and encouraged me to set some goals for reading this year.
Like always I have a stack of books I'm sure I'll never finish. As I sorted through the stacks to pick my 2017 reads, it was fun. My sister always generously shares books with my mom and I when she's finished. I need to get reading and share the love.
My son is starting to pass more books my way. At Christmas, he re-gifted books from his stack to me. I will always read them.
I've set a goal for 20 books this year. It's based on what I recorded over the past two years. I was just under 20 both years, so let's bump that up and hopefully pass it!
Here we Go...
Adult Novels:
Young Adult/Middle Grade (Some of Both...)
Professional Books/NonFiction
I feel like I should say that of course this will change. My 8 year old is already asking me about Red by Liesel Shurtliff. That's the one I haven't read yet! And I'm off to see what Carrie has compiled from all of you!
Happy New Year!
Joy!
Kendra
I highly recommend both A Long Way Gone and Salt to the Sea - unforgettable reads.
ReplyDeleteThe two Carrie mentioned are the only ones of yours I've read, too, & I liked them both, Kendra. I like that you shared a variety of books, & I do recommend Red too. I've loved all of Shurtliff's fairy tale re-writes. Happy Reading!
