Izzy (dizzymissizzyy) I'm hoping to read at least 25 books this year, mostly because I've never kept track before and I don't really know how many I read on average. 25 seemed like a good starting point.

1. The English Wife- Lauren Willig
2. As Bright As Heaven- Susan Meissner
3. The Handmaiden's Tale- Margaret Atwood
4. Of Mice And Men- John Steinbeck
5. The Great Alone- Kristin Hannah
6. What Happens in London- Julia Quinn
7. The Secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever- Julia Quinn
8. Odd Thomas- Dean Koontz
9. Seventeenth Summer- Maureen Daly
10. Preacher Book One: Gone to Texas- Garth Ennis
11. Preacher Book Two: Proud Americans- Garth Ennis
12. Contact- Carl Sagan
13: Crash Test Girl- Kari Byran
14. Packing for Mars- Mary Roach
15. Jessica Jones: Alias Vol 1- Brian Bendis & Michael Gaydos
16. Alias Vol 2
17. Alias Vol 3
18. Alias Vol 4
19. The Silence Of the Girls

Lisa Grønsund | 6163 comments 25 books is most certainly a great starting point, Izzy :) I'm curious to know what you thought of Of Mice and Men ? I know Steinbeck isn't for everyone. I haven't read it since high school (or earlier) and can't decide whether I want to re-read it at some point or not.

Anyways, best of luck with your challenge in 2018!

Izzy (dizzymissizzyy) Lisa- this is actually my second Steinbeck book! I started out with East of Eden, which holds a place as one of my all time favorites. I would highly recommend giving Of Mice and Men a reread, and if you enjoy that book, East of Eden will blow you away.

Thanks for commenting!
