So one of my 25 Before 25 goals was to read more books so I will be keeping track of my reads so far in 2014. You can follow along and try them yourselves! I'm hoping to finish 2 books a month, which is a pretty achievable goal if I continue to read on my breaks at work. It's actually been really great expanding my horizons on the different books out there. However, my next step is to get a library card because books can be expensive. I really appreciated all your book recommendations you gave me a couple weeks ago and I've added plenty of them to my list.
Just yesterday I started Gone Girl, by Gillian Flynn which is a New York Times best seller. Its a suspense novel about a girl who goes missing and her husband becomes the main suspect. I'm only about 50 pages in and it's pretty good so far, definitely a change from what I've been reading recently which is fun. Recently it was announced that Gone Girl is being made into a movie, with Ben Affleck playing the husband (swoon).

I was wanting to read Orange is the New Black...love that show!
ReplyDeleteI would definitely recommend it, theres plenty of differences from the show but still a really good read!
DeleteMy one regret is that I don't have more time to read fiction. I definitely read enough, it's just always for school.

I'm in the middle of Gone Girl - and oh my gosh is it getting good!! I can't wait to finish so that K can read it after me :)
ReplyDeleteOrange is the New Black was a book our book club was considering! Would you recommend it? I know the show was based off of it, but is it pretty similar?

I would definitely recommend OITNB! With the exception of the main character and her BF all the names are different from the TV show. There are similarities and differences throughout but overall a fun but eye opening read!
