I know, kind of random right, why do I have a books tab on my fashion blog? Well books have been a huge part of my life and still is. They're what inspired me to think, write, and write in my blog of course! I also seem to have *good taste* in books according to my friends heehee. I love a wide range of books, any good book. But I guess if I did have to pick, I really like historical fiction and books about people in different cultures. I just love learning about cultures, and stories told in firsthand are the best way to learn. And I have a weird habit of reading multiple books at once as you will notice in my current reads. Usually I like to read one non-fiction, one fictional novel, a beach bum chick lit, a classic literature, and a Christian read. So I think I have a prettttty wide range of books I read. I love them all. And I just want to share!
So here I will post all of my finished books, and current readings as well
I'll put * for good and ** for MUST read!
