Books I Read This Month: January 2018

Faithful Place - Tana French Not Ready for Mom Jeans - Maureen Lipinski

Hmm, well hopefully Booklikes let's me get my book covers in this post. I was having issues sizing them down the other day.


So far this year, I read 33 books. I only decided to have 50 books for my challenge this year, so if I hit a slump (it happens) I can just ride it out without pushing myself to read.

 

I also have to say that Ann Rule's book covers are atrocious. Glad I got that off my chest.
