Books Read in 2016

Last year, I started using Audible to listen to books on my commute to and from work. My 13 year old says I’m cheating but it’s the only time I really have to “read” and I’ve been loving it. I hand wrote a list of the books I read last year but this year, I thought I’d type it up here to save.  It seems as though I’ve consistently made it through one and a half books a month for the past two years. I’d like to try to read/listen to 24 in 2017. I’d love suggestions for new books to read so please comment with any suggestions!

Here’s a picture of the list from last year:

1. Malestrom – Carolyn Custis James

3. Freakonomics – Steven Levitt, Stephen Dubner
4. Wild – Cheryl Strayed (this was a recommendation from a friend that I really enjoyed)
5. The Bad Beginning from The Series of Unfortunate Events – Lemony Snicket (my 13 year old wanted me to read this so she could talk to me about it so I listened to it but of course, she mocked the listening)
