Simple enough. This post is to help me remember the names and authors of books I've read, as well as, keep track of how many I've read. Being the sucker that I am for good writing, all of these books have received a note of some kind: a New York Time's Bestseller (my personal favorite type of novel) or Bestselling Author, Nobel Prize, or an Oprah's Book Club inductee. Most of them I would recommend, but there are a few exceptions which I've starred meaning I found them to be non-stimulating and/or predictable. Feel free to ask any questions if a title peaks your interest, I'd be happy to share my thoughts. If only I could win me a personal pan pizza for reading so much, eh? Lol, kidding (mostly).
