I love reading. At any given moment I’m probably halfway through a handful of books — always too excited to finish my current book before diving into another. Random fact? A few years ago I dated a guy for no more than a month. He was brash and had a crude sense of humor, but was also an avid bookworm and carried his Kindle wherever he went. Intrigued, I decided to buy a Kindle for myself.
I like to think I’ve been addicted to reading ever since.

I had that Kindle for several years…until one day when Monja ate it. Now I’m on Kindle #2 and always on the hunt for new books to devour. I’m currently reading The Happiness Project (loving it!) and Wild and just finished Gone Girl (so addicting!). Now, here are 12 books I’m looking forward to reading (and have heard incredible things about!) for 2015. In case you’re a math whiz or something, that’s one book a month…do-able, yes? I’d love to hear your thoughts if you’ve read any of these! 🙂
