HG's Book Club {Fall 2017 Edition}

I've been an avid reader for as long as I can remember. Reading for pleasure has always been a joy for me, and it seems my girls have the love of reading as well. It definitely helps that Tony and I read all the time, so they see us doing it. Anyways, I'm always giving book recommendations to friends, and thought it would be fun to start a little series here on the blog. You can check out some of the books I read over the summer HERE.

Some of the things I've read lately:

The Bourbon King books by JR Ward // These books were all really great! A lot of different storylines that were all interesting, and kept me coming back for more. They are each right around 400 pages, but they read quickly. You might as well put all three on hold at your local library!


 Into the Water by Paula Hawkins // I wasn’t a fan, and I was disappointed by that since I really loved The Girl on the Train.


In a Dark, Dark Wood by Ruth Ware // I enjoyed this book. Creepy goodness!


The Perfect Stranger by Megan Miranda // Another quick read that I liked but the ending was a bit underwhelming.


The Matchmaker by Elin Hilderbrand // She has quickly become one of my favorite authors. Like her other books, this was great, but the ending had me absolutely sobbing!


Everything You Want Me to Be by Mindy Mejia // I like when I can't quite figure out what's going on in a book, and the ending of this book surprised me. I definitely recommend it!


Currently on my reading wishlist:


*Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart - her book We Were Liars is one of my favorites, and I can't wait to read this one!

*Tales of Two Americas. This would be a really different book for me, but I think a great one. Our country is so divided right now, and this book is a collection of stories and essays of all different viewpoints of America and American life.

*Little Fires Everywhere, by Celeste Ng - which follows the aftermath of a teenage girl, in a small town.


*Cozy Readers Club. No, this isn't a book, but a monthly curated box for lovers of reading, that does include a new hardcover book. How fun would this be to give or receive as a gift?!


What is on YOUR reading wishlist?! Have you read anything great (or not so great) lately? Please let me know!
