I will definitely need this in January! I added a bunch in December, which is fine because I didn't have too many on my shelf. I've finished The Women, but haven't had a chance to review it yet, so I guess it'll count towards January now. Got a little head start there. :)

I am committed to reading / reviewing my oldest book this month.Death at a Fixer-Upper as well as Foul Is Fair which seems more of an inappropriate book for naive teenagers.

I finished No One Can Know
. I thought it was really good, but there was one "all bad" character that was so annoying that I put aside the story at times avoid him. Other than that issue, I enjoyed the story a lot. 3.5★ My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I had to put aside The Expectant Detectives
. Unfortunately, I only had the audio and it disappeared off my app when it archived. I was only able to get through 19%. I was enjoying it well enough that I'd be willing to purchase it if it wasn't quite as pricey as it is. (Kindle is $15, paper is more, audio is a full credit.) I wasn't loving enough to pay that much. I'll keep my eye out at my library in case they decide to purchase a copy or I'll buy it if I can catch it on sale. Until then, it is on hold.
I had a good month. My outstanding list is now manageable, so I can feel free to add more books when I want (which I did).NetGalley Challenge – January

, I don't think it was a book for my age. Seemed very childish but not meant for children. It does resonate with today's work were kids are easily influenced.

2. During the month, read the NetGalley books that you can AND update your post with your reviews. (You can do this after each book or wait until the end of the month.)
3. At the end of the month, update your post and with:
a: What books you read
b: Link(s) to your review(s)**
