History buffs, pay attention.
Julie and I decided to have a reading goal in 2019. We were each going to read 100 books. I also decided to play 100 rounds of golf and throughout the year, I posted the numbers on Instagram. I found myself not being able to read long books, instead spending too much time on the couch reading! But these ten books were great and some are on my all time fav list. Happily, I discovered nonfiction and this year, it is my genre of choice.
We've written reviews on all of these books, but they haven't all been published. We'll continue to update this post as the reviews have been published!
In order, with #1 being my absolute favorite of 2019!
