We’re almost at the end of the year, which means it’s time to finish out our reading goals (if you set one)! My biggest goal (I probably had others, but I can’t remember them) was to read 70 books this year and I am on track. Since we’re down to our final weeks of reading in 2015, I started to think of books that I’d really like to read or finish reading this year. At the beginning of December, I sat down to make a list so that I don’t miss out on any of the books that I’d really like to add to my “Books Read in 2015” list.
FINISH
1 // SNOW WHITE MUST DIE by Nele Neuhaus. You guys. I’ve been reading this book for so long! It’s been one that’s been in progress since the end of March/beginning of April. And it’s not even like I’m struggling through it… I really like this book. I think about it often. So why haven’t I finished it yet? Every time I picked it up and started reading it, I’d have to put it aside to read a book for the book club or a book for review. I will finish it in December, though. I am determined! This might be a good one to pick up over Christmas break, because I’ve found that I’m reading this one more slowly and over break I’ll have more time to devote to it each time I sit down.
2 // YOU by Caroline Kepnes. This is another one that I’m really enjoying, but something always comes up when I start to read it. I get a hurried and frenzied feel from this novel, so I’ve found that I read this one more quickly and should be able to finish it in no time once I pick it up again.
READ
3 // PRETTY BABY by Mary Kubica. I loved Kubica’s debut that was released last year, so this was an automatic buy for me. Luckily I waited long enough to buy it that I was able to get the eBook on sale! I’d like to read this before the year is out so that I can count it among the 2015 releases that I read in 2015.
4 // THE LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER by Jojo Moyes. I actually picked up a copy of this in Montana back in March/April. My friend and I needed a place to wait for 20 minutes for a bus, so we ran into a grocery store. I felt bad sitting down and hanging out without buying something, so I went through the book section and found this. I’ve read a couple of books by Jojo Moyes this year, so to finish off the year of discovering of this author, I’d like to finish all the books of hers that I have copies of. If I finish this, it’ll be four.
Snow White Must Die sounds super interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Adding all of these to my list asap! I just finished a book (it also took me a while to get through it!) and was looking for more!
I have The Last Letter From Your Lover on my “to read” shelves here. It looks like such a good read! If you post a review, I will look forward to reading it.
Snow White Must Die is awesome =D at least I really liked it…good luck with your reading list and I am off to check out what the other books on your list are about =D
I want to read Snow White Must Die so bad! One day!!
I love all of Jojo Moyes books, another for the TBR list!
Those books sound awesome! I used to read a lot more than I have been lately. I recently just finished a book entitled “Napkin Notes” and did a review for it on my blog. Besides that book, I really haven’t finished any. I am that girl who reads several books at the same time and never finishes any of them lol. I need to break that habit. There are several books I need to either finish reading or start reading. Oy.
I have soooo many I want to read! the piles have gotten outta control again!!!
Oh gosh, I have a list too!
The Daniel Plan (healthy living)
Raising Grateful Kids In An Entitled World by Kristen Welch (book launch team)
On Becoming Toddler Wise (another mama book)
Decluttering Your Home by Geralin Thomas
Wow… Just realized they are ALL non-fiction, self-help sort of books.. What does that say about me?! Ha, I guess 2016 will be a year of improvement to say the least. I will be reviewing all of these books on my blog once I get around to finishing them, hopefully I can apply them to my life!
Great list! Adding these to my reading list. I love books!
Interesting! Can’t wait to hear what you think of these…!
I’ve been curious about snow white must die. Glad to hear you’re enjoying it even if you haven’t finished it yet!
I don’t think I’ve heard of any of these books before now! I’ll have to look them up. I am reading a parenting book by John MaArthur that I’d really like to finish before January, and I just got a fiction book called “Proof” that I want to at least start before 2016!
Adding these books to my list for next year. They both sound interesting!

Great timing! I had been looking for some recommendations. Thanks š
I need to add these to my list ASAP.

Snow White Must Die sounds really interesting. I’ll have to check it out!
Great list! I need to check these out!
I haven’t heard of any of these! Adding to my book Pinterest board!
I’ve picked up Snow White Must Die a few times but I haven’t been able to finish it yet. I’m not really sure why but I can feel myself in a serious reading funk. I have over 60 unread books on my Kindle and right now I’m not feeling any of them.
I really wanted to finish GREEN by Ted Dekker before the end of the year, but I don’t see that happening. I will have more time after the 20th of Dec because I will be done with school, FINALLY! So, we shall see … š
I haven’t heard of any of these. I have a couple on my nightstand that I would like to get read.
Great idea to make a list. I need to write down all the books I want to read so I don’t forget them!
