Totals

Read: 18

Of the 100 books listed, I’ve only read 18 and of the 18 books that I read, I enjoyed them all. Some of my favorite books are on this list like Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins, Sustained by Emma Chase, Practice Makes Perfect by Julie James and then it’s nice to see some new goodies on here too like The Billionaire Bachelor by Jessica Lemmon, The Hating Game by Sally Thorne and P.S. I Like You by Kasie West.

On TBR Pile: 25

There are a lot of new to me books that I hadn’t heard of or even authors that I haven’t heard of this list but I did manage to find some books that I know are on my TBR list. 25 books to be exact. Some of the books that I’m most looking forward to reading made the list and that makes me happy. I’m so glad to see Roman Crazy by Nina Bocci & Alice Clayton on here as well as Well Hung by Lauren Blakely and The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion and The Royal We by Heather Cocks & Jessica Morgan.

New to Me/Not on my TBR List: 57

The other 57 books listed, I either haven’t heard of or didn’t seem all that interested in but I am mighty curious about now. Game, Set, Match by Nana Malone, All of Me by Jennifer Bernard and About that Fling by Tawna Fenske are all on my TBR list now.

What about you? How many of these books have you read, plan on reading and are there any books you think should be on this list that didn’t make the cut?
