Like most other bookworms, great books make their way onto my "things I'm thankful for" list every year. It's hard to choose favorites, but I went ahead and picked five books I read in 2016 and am thankful for.
  1. Quest for the Beast by Sarah Holman // I'm not only thankful for book because it was a good one (though it was!!), but because I discovered this author through it. I've now read most of her shorter works and I'm looking forward to reading more!! :) 
  2. They Called Her Mrs. Doc by Janette Oke // As with the aforementioned book, by reading this book I ended up falling in love with many of this author's amazing books. :) 
  3. Interrupted by Rachel Coker // This is an absolutely beautiful book. I'm so glad I found it. Learning that it was written by a teen showed me that writers can begin anywhere. <3 
  4. Dare by Tricia Mingerink // Similar to #1 and #2, I'm thankful that I chose to read this book in January and discovered a great series. ^.^ 
  5. Anchored by Kayla Aimee // I'm thankful I read this book this year, because through it I found the authors blog. A lovely place of real life rambles, southern humor, and quick wit. ;) 

I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to another great year of reading!

    1. They are!! Oh, yay!! I really think you'll enjoy that one; it reminded me a lot of Janette Oke's books. :) I got three of the free/discounted ebooks. :D
      *oohs and ahhs over your list* All those are great!! I haven't read "Anna's Crossing" yet, but I have all the others. ;) Have you read book two... "The Newcomer", I think it is?

    2. I'm so excited to read it! :)
      I think you might like "Anna's Crossing". It was a little bit harder for me to get into, but once I did I enjoyed it. ;) "The Newcomer" actually hasn't come out just yet, but I think it does the end of January. I'm really looking forward to it though! Then I saw that the third book "The Return" comes out in August. :)

      Okay! It's on my ridiculously long list of books to read for 2017... ;) Haha, oh okay. :P I knew I had saw the cover around, so I guess I just assumed it was already out. :P August – cool! :)
