10 Books for Your 2020 Reading List

Happy New Year! I hope the first few weeks of 2020 have been full of hope, fresh perspective, kindness, love and curiosity. 

I'm still swirling around ideas of what I want to accomplish this year. So many things! But, I want to really narrow down the list. I'll share as soon as it's ready. Hopefully, that's soon. 

One goal I set last year was to read at least 30 books. I added No. 31 to the list on December 30, just making my deadline. I do the Goodreads Reading Challenge. It is so easy to track my reading there. If you use Goodreads, look me up!

I enjoyed each book I read for various reasons, but here are my top 10 faves, in no particular order, in case you're looking for something new, different, serious, sad or fun. 
  1. The Fortune Hunter by Daisy Goodwin
  2. Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
  3. A Window Opens by Elisabeth Egan
  4. Thrice the Brinded Cat Hath Mew'd (Flavia de Luce #8) by Alan Bradley
  5. The Grave's a Fine  and Private Place (Flavia de Luce #9) by Alan Bradley
  6. Becoming by Michelle Obama
  7. Shortest Way Home: One Mayor's Challenge and a Model for America's Future by Pete Buttigieg
  8. A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles
  9. The Art of Noticing: 131 Ways to Spark Creativity, Find Inspiration, and Discover Joy in the Everyday by Rob Walker
  10. Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
