I'm always on the hunt for a good book recommendation. I have over 470 books on my 'to read' shelf on goodreads and I still keep finding more which makes it incredibly hard for me to choose just one book to read at a time. Each year I make a list of books that are top priority. It's kind of nerdy, but I'm an obsessive list maker and it shortens my time spent standing in the library with a stack of fifteen books trying to narrow it down. Last year I set a goal to read 20 books by the end of the year - it was my first time ever setting a conscious goal to read more and it worked. I ended up reading 25 or so, and I thought I would set that same goal again for this year since it was easily attainable, but kept me reading at a fairly consistent pace. I like put a variety of books on this list because there are so many classics I haven't read, best sellers I miss out on if I focus on too many classics, etc. - and I like to throw in a few parenting books to keep some constant encouragement and inspiration going on in that area of my life. So here are fifteen books I plan to read this year - if you're interested in seeing the rest of the list, head over to my 2014 bookshelf on goodreads.
I just finished French Kids Eat Everything (which was decent - worth reading) and I'm about halfway through Half Broke Horses. What are you reading right now/plan on reading this year? What are some of your favorite books that you've read in the past?
Thank you for posting this. I've read some of them, and I'll download ebooks of the others if there are.
