I went online to look for new books, and came across GoodReads "50 Books in a Year Challenge". I thought it sounded like a great way to get me out of a rut. They would give me the categories, and I would chose books to meet those.
I had a friend that participated in the challenge with me. (She finished by September). We are going to do the challenge again in 2016, and we are looking forward to it.
Here were the books I read in 2015. I am going to put my reviews of each book onto this blog, and then will continue with my
