Books on my 'To Read' List (Round 2)

Megan :)

Happy Friday!

I hope you are having a great week so far. I am so looking forward to the weekend! I am really looking forward to waking on Saturday morning and having a tea and reading on our balcony for the first time. I think we are going to look for more outdoor furniture this weekend so hopefully we will get lucky again. I still can’t believe what a great deal we found last weekend for our outdoor couch.

I was trying to think of what to write for today's book blog post, and I was updating my books to read list and thinking I should probably leave this for now and work on the book post, but instead I thought I'd update you on my 'To Read' list. Win-win!

I first wrote about my Books to Read list last March.

In January I didn't read a lot, but I really enjoyed all the books I read. So as I choose my next reads I'm going to prioritize quality over quantity, although I never have trouble finding good books I want to read. I just want to love them all!

Here is a snapshot of my current 'To Read' list. This includes books that are already out and books that haven't been released yet.

Books I already own:

  1. Educated by Tara Westover 

  2. The Library Book by Susan Orlean 

  3. I Know you Know by Gilly Macmillan 

  4. Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari
