Thanks to some of my fellow book loving family and friends, I received many books as gifts for Christmas. Their kindness has stocked me with many titles to read over the next year! I also supported some local bookstores — in my hometown and at a bookstore I used to work at in Lebanon, Ohio.
While not all of them are pictured, I wanted to share some of the exciting titles that were purchased and draw attention to their authors. Some of these books I will review on my blog.
Here are the books:
The Cure for Dreaming (find the book review here)
All the Bright Places (find the book review here)
The Miniaturist
On Human Bondage
The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
Sister’s Red
And lots of others!
Have you read any of these? Which ones are your favorites? Are you hoping to read any of these in the future? Leave your comments in the comments section of this post!
Wool, by Hugh Howey was excellent, but you hardly needed me to tell you that.

I am really looking forward to this book. I have wanted to own it for a long time. It was once available in the bookstore I worked at, but before I could buy it, someone else purchased it. It was the only copy we had at the time. I was so disappointed. Now I finally own it for myself.

I read all five stories over a three day sprint. I think shift took about the same, and minus the gap, Dust took four.
