  “What’s wrong with me? … I might seem like the ideal student: homework always in early, every extra credit and extra curricular I can get my hands on, the good girl and the high achiever.

  I read 9 books in January! What a great way to start the new year! Unfortunately, I didn’t have any 5 star books this month. I don’t know if I’m just in a slump from the weather, or if I just genuinely wasn’t feeling exceptional about these. Nevertheless, there are definitely some good titles within…

• 12 Books Challenge

  

  On my Instagram, I asked for 12 book recommendations for the #12bookschallenge and I was not disappointed. The idea is that each book will represent a different month of the year.
