36 books in 1 year challenge

A Visit from the Goon Squad

by Jennifer Egan

This book was recommended by GoodReads as well as one of my blog readers. It defintiely lived up to the hype. It was written in a series of flashbacks narrated by over 10 people. ALthough confusing to catch on and catch up at sometimes, ...

Firefly Lane

by Kristin Hannah

Loved this book! Well-written and a definite tear-jerker. Talks about the best kind of love: friendship!

Running with Scissors

by Augusten Burroughs

This book was definitely well-written and lived up to its David-Sedaris-like-hype. However, it was kind of gross and never resolved itself.

The Book of Joe

by Jonathan Tropper

Really a great read, so happy I found this author. He always looks at the most simple of lives, and shows that there is always a tint of drama. Reads too fast though.

Second Glance

by Jodi Picoult

Everyone had a negative opinion going into this book. But, if you look passed the obvious fluff of a Jodi book and the whole ghost thing. As always, it is a quick read with a lot of research, which makes it fun and credible.

Wherever You Go: A Novel

by Joan Leegant

this was a too-fast read that never resolved all its problems. it was highly unlikely and not intellectually stimulating.

All Other Nights

by Dara Horn

Took me a while to get into, then i LOVED it! Interesting way the book came full circle.

The Tenth Song: A Novel

by Naomi Ragen

a book about a family's journey. a little too fluffy at times.

Room

by Emma Donoghue

I think this was a gripping book about a feral child and his mother. Not for the faint of heart!

This Is Where I Leave You

by Jonathan Tropper

Amazing, quick read on the intricacies of American families.

Mila 18

by Leon Uris

Second time i read this book. No one writes about the strength of the Jew better than Uris. Great read on the Warsaw Ghetto uprising.

Uris said it best "in order to know from where you are going, you must know from where you...

MY LIFE

by Golda Meir

This book was a great first hand account from someone who lived through the first years of Israel as a state. Her insight and candor is endearing.

Eat, Pray, Love

by Elizabeth Gilbert

I feel that this book was a "must to read" but had a hard time getting through it and heard the same from friends. However, in the end, I believe it was worth it.
