Goodreads: 2017 Reading Challenge!

I love to read. I read more than anyone I know personally(not online most of you have me beat!), which actually makes me kind of sad because it would be great to have more people to talk to about the books after I read them. Joining book clubs is hit or miss, they usually want to read books that are more serious than I am interested in reading at this time (I have to read textbooks…no thanks to anything else serious).

Anyway! I set a goal of 75 books for 2017. I knew it was kind of low but I also hadn’t been reading as much as I like to for a few months so I just wanted to make sure I hit the goal. Towards the end of spring I got my groove back and started powering through books again and ended up finishing out 2017 with 113 books read! Much better!

You can check out the entire list of books I read on my Goodreads page, also feel free to add me because I love seeing what everyone is reading and finding new books that way.

Here were my top 2 favorites and my least favorite.

The Alice Network

I thought it was a great read, I loved the back and forth of the timeline and the characters. I hate to give away too much but I found this one through a book club and everyone in the group also really enjoyed the book.

Rebel of the Sands

I really enjoy YA books, as I’ve mentioned before. I thought this was a great read. I loved the mystical aspect along with the revolution and, of course, a little love mixed in!

Choke was one of the few books I really really wanted to enjoy but just didn’t

I love loved Fight Club so I really thought that I would be a fan of anything Palahniuk wrote. To be honest I think it just tried too hard to be like “I don’t give a shit if you like this or not” and because of that it came across as ridiculous.

There you have it. What was your favorite read of 2017? Did you make have a challenge??
