Must Read in 2015 Completed!



This was my first year to take part in the Must Read Challenge, and I am happy to report that I met my goal of reading (or listening to) 25 books! Most of my reading from this list was done during the first half of the year. Listening to some of the books on audio is a huge help to me. I listen to books on most days while walking on running. My 2015 list is below:
