Katie’s comments from the 2017 Reading Challenge group.

This was recommended to me from a goodreads member when I asked for recommendations for post-apocalyptic themed books. I enjoyed it and found it to be unexpectedly frightening.

This book was always on my grandmother's coffee table, and when she passed away it was one of the things I kept. I ended up reading it and loved it!

I loved this book! I would definitely recommend it!

I loved The Book Thief and Water for Elephants

Song of Achilles

I'm recommending "Tell the Wolves I'm Home".

I really enjoyed both the book and the movie (read the book first)

This is one of my favorite books and I was lucky enough to meet the author last year and have her sign my book. Her talk was very interesting. I also attended an event where some members of the Lacks family spoke and answered questions from the audience.

Hello! My name is Katie and I recently joined in anticipation of the 2016 reading challenge. I'm still working on my 2015 list but hoping to complete it soon.

I loved this book. I haven't finished the trilogy yet but I recently read "Eye of the Needle" by Follett and LOVED it!
