2018 SUMMARY

I finally finished blogging my 2018 books - thanks to the support of my dear friend, Kerry.  

It was a slow year for me.... I only recorded 67 books which is the lowest year ever for me that I remember anyway.  I know I actually read more than that and did not record them but I also know I had long periods where I didn't read ANYTHING.

Here is my summary for 2018:

Best book I read: 
American StreetAmerican Street by Ibi Zoboi

Worst book I read: 

Flat Broke with Two Goats: A MemoirFlat Broke with Two Goats by Jennifer McGaha

Favorite New (to me) Author: Celese Ng
Everything I Never Told You

Favorite Audio book: 
Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress: A NovelBalzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress by Dai Sijie

Most Talked About Books in my family:

Total books recorded: 67

Books read on Kindle: 50

Books with a rating of 4: 27

Books with a rating  more than 4: 3 (American Street, The Color Purple, and Middlesex)

Books read on The Rory Gilmore List:  18 ( I was supposed to read 50... woops ... I don't even know why Kerry agrees to do book challenges with me anymore...)

Books read on Goodreads 100 Books to Read Before You Die List: 8 (only 1.5 more to go!)

Books read on the Richfield Library Reading Challenge: 46 out of the 48. I didn't find a book written by someone under 30 or with the same initials as me.
