One of my friends from Church had a goal in 2013 to read 52 books in the year...and she did it. (And they were regular adult novels, some longer than others. Wow!)
Though a far cry from 52, I managed to read 25 books (at least, as best as I can recall) last year. Here they are, color-coded for your reference:
Red = YAC (Church) Book Club
Blue = Children/YA
Purple = Professional Development
Green = Personal/For Fun
* = rating (out of 5)
- Rediscovering Catholicism ***
- My Life with the Saints ****
- The Goshawful Gold Rush Mystery **
- The Mysterious Benedict Society ****
- Our Greatest Act of Fidelity ***
- Tuck Everlasting *****
- Wringer ***
- The One and Only Ivan ****
- Wonder ****
- Hold Fast ***
- 39 Clues (Book 1) ***
- The Book Whisperer ***
- Because of Mr. Terupt ****
- The Giver ****
- Hoot ***
- What Great Teachers Do Differently: 17 Things That Matter Most ***

Yep, that just about does it. I've blogged about some of these as I read them within the past year, but if you're interested in any of the above, feel free to email me or leave a comment requesting further details. As you can tell, I love to share my joy of reading!
