Must Read in 2017

Hi Friends...

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...

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!

  2. The 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!
