Must Read in 2019 - Final Update

In 2019 I had a list of 36 books. I think I had finished all but 2 books by the middle of June. Around that time my life kind of turned upside down due to some medical issues, and my reading, among many other things, took a place on the back row. During the remaining months of the year I was usually playing catch-up with my reading for school, without looking back at my challenge. I prepared to read my last book on December 31st, only to find out I had gotten the wrong book! So, unfortunately, six months later I finish with 35 of my 36 books read. I did check out that last book from the public library today! My list with the month during which I read each book is below:
This list contains many great books, but just a few of my favorites are listed below:
  • The Bridge Home - I love this one and would really like to hear its name announced on awards day in January!
  • Over the Moon - Fantasy is not usually my thing, but I adored this book and have recommended it over and over again.
  • Stay - Like many of our student readers, I am always drawn to dog stories and this one will tug at your heartstrings!
  • White Bird - This book was not particularly what I expected, but was an interesting extension to a beloved favorite.
I look forward to another year of reading!
