It's time to put your Netflix watching on hold, and make 2018 the year of binge-reading. Here are a few books on my reading list that are worth a read:
1. All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
This book follows a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths eventually cross during World War II.
2. The Flood Girls by Richard Fifield
Set in small-town Montana, Rachel Flood has come back after nine years to make amends but no one will hear it, especially her mother. But with the help of a local boy, Jake, she just might be able to make things rights.
3. The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert
A little twist on fairy tales, this books follows Alice, a teenage girl whose fairy tale author grandmother has passed away at her estate, The Hazel Wood. Her mother is then stolen away by a mysterious supernatural figure and now Alice must enter into this scary fairy tale world to find her and figure out the mystery behind The Hazel Wood.
4. All the Missing Girls by Megan Miranda
Similar to The Girl on the Train, this book tells the mystery of two girls disappearing from the same town, a decade apart.
5. Washington's Spies: The Story of America's First Spy Ring by Alexander Rose
Based on his research, Alexander Rose reveals the first American spy ring that helped win the American Revolution. Also, the show Turn is based on this spy ring, and it is amazing.
