Recently I was asked what I would do if I had one extra hour in the day. I didn't even have to think about it - the answer was easy - I would read. Currently I don't have a lot of free time so reading has become a luxury, and my favorite escape. Listening to books lets me get through a lot more books because I can multi-task. I listen to books while I drive, workout, or clean and sometimes find extra projects just so that I can keep listening. Last year I chose a favorite from all that I read. From my list this year, the best that I read was A House in the Sky. It is non fiction, and pretty tough to read, but I was fascinated by the travel and impressed by the author's resiliency. The fan favorite was definitely A Man Called Ove - it made me laugh, and cry, and everyone I know that has read it has Afallen in love with Ove. So, enough with the rambling, here is the list:
Books I Read
Everything I Never Told You B+
The Rosie Project A-
My Sister's Grave B
