Ugh, I thought I had a fool-proof plan for this year. Pick 12 books, read one each month. Easy, right? THERE ARE TOO MANY BOOKS I WANT TO READ AT ANY GIVEN POINT IN TIME!!!
Boo. I didn't complete my goal. Again.

The Unwanteds
by Lisa McMann
read in December
I was encouraged to read this by Jason Lewis
One sentence summary: With flavors of The Hunger Games and Harry Potter, children who are considered "Unwanted" (i.e. they have too much creativity) are Purged every year, but little do they know they end up in Aritme', a place where their creative talents are nurtured and developed into something magical, which will help in an upcoming battle.
My thoughts: Oh, I have readers for this series! And I may have pushed it onto a customer at Barnes and Noble (no, I don't work there.... just can't help chiming in). I can't wait to see where this series goes.
Hook's Revenge
by Heidi Shulz
read in December
I was encouraged to read this by Kellee Moye
One sentence summary: We meet young Jocelyn Hook, daughter of Captain Hook, who is on a quest to avenge the crocodile that brought the demise of the infamous Captain.
My thoughts: Flavors of Disney, the "villain" is kind of the good guy? Sold.
I'm currently reading:
A Court of Thorns and Roses
by Sarah J. Maas
I was encouraged to read this by Jillian Heise
I won't have this finished by the stroke of midnight, but it will be my first book read of 2017!
Another year completed. Looking forward to starting #mustreadin2017! We'll be posting our next set of goals on January 5th. Come back and see what I'm reading next year on Thursday (sounds funny!)
