It’s time for a new book list for a new year!  Here are my picks for the year!  Let me know if you’ve read any of these and what you thought about it!  I’m super flexible and if I come across something that appears more interesting then I may swap it out!

I couldn’t shorten my non-fiction list!  I’m sure I won’t be able to get to all of them, but we will see!
