Today's theme is Winter 2018 TBR!
Oh, so many! I currently have 6833 books on my Goodreads "Want to Read" shelf!
Of those, here are some I am most anticipating reading this winter...
Becoming, Michelle Obama's autobiography, is a definite read for me
during this winter.
She and Barack are
two people for whom
I have the utmost respect.
Dreams From My Father:
A Story of Race and Inheritance
and
The Audacity of Hope:
Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream
I just feel the need to remind myself that there will be a return to
decency, compassion, and intellect among those occupying
the main leadership positions of this country... Those changes cannot arrive too quickly!
The January 2019
read for the face-to-face book club
I facilitate is
by Nina LaCour.
And then there is The Dry by Jane Harper for the Second Flight Books Backlist Book Club in January. I have a feeling I will immediately want to follow this with Force of Nature. These are book #1 and #2 in her Aaron Falk series.
But...before any of these
I am currently finishing
I have found this to be even more interesting
and informative than I at first imagined
it might be. I am enjoying his writing
as well as the details of his life.
Immediately following that is
by Rebecca Skloot.
I selected both of these books for Nonfiction November, a reading event
cohosted by the following five bloggers:
Sarah of Sarah's Book Shelves, Katie of Doing Dewey, Kim of Sophisticated Dorkiness,
Rennie of What's Nonfiction, Julz of JulzReads
Rennie of What's Nonfiction, Julz of JulzReads
And although November has come and gone, I am determined to complete these books before 2019 arrives! (Better late than never!) I have anxiously anticipated reading both of these books for sooooooo long! :)
Sometime during January, I will read and review They Were Sisters by Dorothy Whipple
for the February 4, 2019,
Literary Wives review posting.
This is a Persephone reprint
so I'll definitely be ordering a copy!
It sounds rather intense!
Also in January I will be
reading and reviewing
James Baldwin's Giovanni's Room
for the Classics Club Spin #19!
I was totally enthralled by his book
Go Tell It on the Mountain.
The Ultimate Popsugar Reading Challenge group is hosting a group read of
The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
by Stuart Turton
for January 2019.
I am intrigued by this book for many reasons.
It would fulfill quite a few prompts
for the Popsugar 2019 and ATY 2019 challenges as well.
Both of these challenges are on Goodreads.
If you're interested, look for them in "groups" on Goodreads.
And then? I have so many more I want to read...
How about you? What is on your Winter 2018 to-read listing?
Happy reading!
