Books to Add to Your Reading List in 2017 {from my very favorite 2016 reads}

January 6, 2017 by Courtney Leave a Comment

January means one thing for the avid reader. You might sit down to map out a tentative book list. Perhaps, like me, you have an ongoing book list on Goodreads and one in the notepad of your smart phone, as well! 


With a fresh year ahead, I want to share some of my very favorite books from the past year. You might want to add some of these to your own booklist!  

I read quite a few books in 2016. May I share my absolute favorites? I highly recommend each of these books, sweet friend.

They were too good to rate in any specific order.  I’ll simply list my favorites in the order I read them.  Okay?
