2 Minute Book Chat – Words in Deep Blue by Cath Crowley

Kristen — Mon, 18 Dec 2017 15:55:12 +0000

Words in Deep Blue is a young adult book that ended up being one of my favorite reads of 2017.

It always drives me nuts when I see “Best Of the Year” book lists that come out before the year is up. I read some of the best books during the quiet downtime between Christmas and New Years. I think reading is at its absolute best in December.

Words in Deep Blue is just one of those books that would have been skipped on my best of list if I shared a list a few weeks ago like a lot of sites do. It’s been sitting on my desk after a visit to the library, and yesterday I decided to scrap my to-do list and read. I am so glad I did because this was definitely one of my favorite books from 2017!

10 great books to add to your to be read list today!

A few of the people over at 43 Things decided to join a challenge put on by Miz B of the Literary Cache Blog. This challenge is to read at least one book each month from your ever growing “To Be Read (TBR) Pile”. You know… the stack of books sitting by your bed, on your night stand, on your coffee table, by your desk, etc. that keeps growing and growing because you keep finding more and more books that you want to read. You go into Barnes and Noble with every intention of just browsing, and come out with a sack full of books you just couldn’t resist. Yes…. you, like me, have a compulsive book problem. Well, I’m going to finally do something about it and start making a dent in the pile. If you want to join me, go to the Literary Cache Blog and join in the fun. Come on and do it… you know you want to!…
