The December Project: Working Through 70 Unread Books on My Kindle
I recently noticed that I have 70 unread books on my Kindle. I get most of my new releases from the library and since I have to read them when they become available, much of what I purchase (mostly because it is on sale) languishes unread. This December, I am going to attempt to "clean out my Kindle" by working through these books, which are listed below. Because two people mentioned loving A Man Called Ove to me last week, I will be starting with that on December 1. I'll post short reviews of each book I read throughout the month.
Have you read any of these books? If so, let me know what you think I should read next!
