If you guys remember…last year I jumped on to the Rock My TBR 2016 reading challenge hosted by Sarah at The YA Book Traveler. I was pretty excited to find a challenge that could work with my mood reader ways. I was able to select a wide variety of books that HOPEFULLY would fit my random moods, and I think I was successful for the most part (will have a wrap-up in a couple weeks).
So…I was pretty excited when I saw that Sarah is hosting Rock My TBR again for 2017! I am so excited to compile a list to read over the next year and maybe even to find someone to buddy read a book or two with!
So, just a recap of how it works…I create a list of books and try to read at least one book a month from this list. These are books that I own that are kind of just sitting on my shelf. Books that I have EVERY intention of reading but just haven’t got there yet. My goal is to read AT LEAST 12 of these books by the end of 2017. Fingers crossed this works out! So…here is my list…
- Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee
- I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith
- The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey
- Those Who Save Us by Jenna Blum
- The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom
- Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalo
- A Study in Charlotte by Brittany Cavallaro
- Rebel in the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton
- The Winner’s Crime by Marie Rutkoski
- The Winner’s Kiss by Marie Rutkoski
- Dark Triumph by Robin LaFevers
- The Outlaws of Sherwood by Robin McKinley
- Ivory and Bone by Julie Eshbaugh
- A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray
- All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
- The Violets of March by Sarah Jio
- The Crown of Embers by Rae Carson
- Written in the Stars by Aisha Saeed
- The Boy in the Black Suit by Jason Reynolds
- Bitter Greens by Kate Forsyth
- Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore
- Through the Ever Night by Veronica Rossi
- Shades of Earth by Beth Revis
- Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
Let’s see how this year goes! Fingers crossed I get through at least half of these books.

Oh that sounds really cool. Not a big sci-fi fan but I think that is a cool way to get people to read a wide variety of the genre.
