The 52 Book Reading Challenge

Picture
Every year, instead of making a New Year's Resolution, I give myself a reading goal.  For the past two years, I've committed to reading 52 books a year--a book a week.  I've learned so much about the world and myself by accepting this challenge.  Several people ask me for a good book recommendation, so I've decided to upload my book list here so people can find a book that looks interesting to them!  Listed below are the books I've read in 2017 so far.  Enjoy!
