My 2016 Reading List

This is a shorter list than other years. But in all honesty I have never made a list. I usually have an idea of some books I want or need to read and then I read whatever the wind blows my way. 

This is where it's at right now, but I will add random books that come up on my radar that I just don't want to pass up or wait on. Like, Me Before You, so I can watch the movie this June!

Hoping more than anything that when I read I will also take notes and stay steady in my commonplace book. My kids saw me highlight yesterday, that's not a bad choice either.
