I found 13 of these books at my library and I added 7 of my own books that I think fit well into this reading list, even though it's been a while since I've read them.
And as I'm not taking the Goodsreads Challenge, I want to make my own challenge. So reading books I wouldn't normally read, re-reading books I haven't picked up in a while and branching out into different genres. And by the end I might find an unexpected favorite!
I'll have the list posted on the side bar of my site, so I can keep track and maybe other people can find a new book for themselves.
The underlined books are the books I already own.

ReplyDeleteI needed something different to do with my reading and when I saw this list, I thought it was a perfect idea.
