I always set my goal for 100 books a year. This year I read 132. Wonder what I will do in 2015?

It's now the 6th day of January and I have read 3 books so far.

Maybe the month of January is a good reading month for me since it's cold and even snowed yesterday. I also find that if a book sucks me in, I just want to read it instead of doing anything else. I generally give a book 25 to 50 pages and if it's not talking to me, I quit it. I may try another time but I am a mood reader and can judge for myself early.
Books Read in 20151. The Temple of Gold by William Goldman
2. Chateau of Secrets by Melanie Dobson
3. The Mistletoe Promise by Richard Paul Evans

You are reading a lot of books and authors I've not heard of before. Hope you are enjoying then
I've read All the Light We Cannot See and Still Life and I thought both were very interesting - Still Life was our local Book Club's latest choice of the month.

I loved All the Light We Cannot See Although the first time I tried reading it I quit after 50 pages. This time I persevered.I thought Still Life was OK but others have told me these books get better and better. Have you read anymore of Louise Penny's books?
9. Last Night at the Blue at the Blue Angel by Rebecca Rotert.
10. The Italian Girl by Lucinda Riley
11. The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
12. Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen
13. The Twin's Daughter by Lauren Baratz
14. The Memory Box by Eva Lesko Nataliano
What did you think of The Girl on the Train, Nancy? I have heard a lot about it.
I did enjoy The Girl on the Train. Much better IMO than Gone Girl.I also loved The Memory Box. Don't miss either of these titles.
