It’s time for my book list for the 2nd quarter of 2015! I can’t believe that I used to be able to fit all the books I read in one post for the year- now I’m feeling like I need to do it even more frequently than quarterly! Any ideas of how to better organize these lists?
Here are the books I’ve read from July 2015- September 2015!
My Sister’s Keeper: This was the first Jodi novel that I read, and I really loved it! I’m so glad I found her as an author, and ended up reading something else by her later in the summer.
The Rosie Project/ The Rosie Effect: I really enjoyed both of these books, and would definitely encourage anyone to read them! I wrote a post reviewing The Rosie Project here, and have a post on The Rosie Effect written and read to post soon!
The Blue Bistro: This was a really fun summer read, and I gave it a 4 out of 5 on good reads. I wrote a post reviewing the book here.
All Fall Down: I REALLY enjoyed this story of prescription drug use/abuse, and wrote a post reviewing the book here.
The Help: I started this audiobook last summer while biking, and then didn’t end up finishing the last third, so I finally finished it this summer. This is a really solid book.
Nineteen Minutes: This book was definitely sad, but I really enjoyed the storyline and felt that the writing was good.
Everything I Never Told You: I gave this book a 4 out of 5 on goodreads, and really enjoyed the storyline. I wrote a post reviewing the book here.
The Amish Midwife: I got into a very Amish mood for a few weeks this summer, so I decided to start the series. The book was alright, but not too Amish-y. I’ll probably finish the series at some point though.
The One and Only: This was just weird. I listened to the audiobook while biking, but wouldn’t have wanted to waste the time sitting down to read it.
Three Wishes: Liane Moriarty is an author I’m SO happy to have found this summer (the first book I read by her was Big Little Lies). I didn’t love this one as much as some of the others I’v read, but I’m definitely still glad that I read it!
Killing Lincoln: I really enjoyed this book, and I already have a review of this typed up and ready to go!
Just Breathe: This one was fine but not fantastic.
Modern Romance: This audiobook was a lot of fun to listen to! I love listening to autobiographies or books read by the author- it makes them come to life totally differently.
The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: This book definitely made me think differently about the task of decluttering and organizing my home. I plan to write a post on this book soon!
The Husband’s Secret: I just finished this book at the end of September, and really enjoyed reading it during my lunch breaks at work. The story dragged a few times, but overall I really loved it! This was another book by Liane Moriarty (the 4th book by her that I read this summer!), and I would definitely encourage you to read this book/check out Moriarty.
Beautiful Day: I think this might have been my lowest rated book of the quarter. It might have been better reading it in another setting, but I just didn’t love the story line.
The Hunger Games: Obviously I loved this one! I try to read or listen to this series once a year, usually in late summer/early fall.
Catching Fire: This is my favorite book in the Hunger Games series!
18 Books for the 3 months- I can’t be disappointed in that! It’s a smaller number of books than I read during the second quarter of 2015, but it’s been a busy last 7 weeks, so I think that’s understandable.

Now it’s your turn to share! What’s your favorite book you read from July through September?
