My boyfriend surprised me with a subscription to Amazon Unlimited for Christmas. Super thoughtful! It doesn’t give you ALL of the books but there are quite a few I’ve been wanted to read plus lots of new suggestions. Between that & Overdrive (the library’s digital download site) & a couple paperbacks borrowed from a friend this is going to be the Year of Reading for me.
Non-fiction:
David & Goliath, Malcolm Gladwell – such a good read. I also recommend Outliers.
Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns) by Mindy Kaling. I love Mindy. Fun fact: I read this in her voice. At some point I switched over to “…Then Stay Fat” on my Kindle & picked it up the next morning to read, thinking I was still reading “Is Everyone…” and continued reading in Mindy’s voice till I realized pages later that Mindy was not, in fact, giving me tough love weight loss advice.
…Then Just Stay Fat – Straight talking weight loss help. It’s all up to you (or me, as the case may be).
Fiction:
The Book Does Not Exist – This was suggested to me after I read John Dies at the End, which is a major fave of mine.
I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream – A collection of super weird short stories that are in turns sci-fi, fantasy & horror.
Harvest Home – long & worth it.
Fifty Shames of Earl Grey: A Parody – Made me laugh out loud. Apparently “parody” is a whole category of books. I had no idea.
