This is a really good list. I’ve read many of your suggestions, particularly in the fiction and series sections.
These are just some of my favorite books. I’m like you, lol, I read at least two books a week. I am not sure what I would do without books! There is just so much in a book. I don’t understand how people don’t like to read.
