My 2017 reading goal was to read 30 books. I surpassed that goal by reading 47 books. This is 3 more books than last year, as in 2016 I read 44! As I did last year, here is the list of the books I finished this year, and the links back to my review of each. I think I read some good ones and I’d love to know if you read any of the same ones I did. Also, I’d love any recommendations of books to read next year!
