25 books I read in 2017

With an endless stream of amazing shows, it's easier than ever to get sucked into Netflix. But I find reading more worthwhile and better for my overall psyche. I mean, is there anything better than curling up with a page-turner? Don't believe me? When in doubt... READ!

To help jump start my reading, I set a goal last January through my 101 in 1001 list to read 50 books before 2019. And although 2017 was just my first year, I'm already half way there with 25 books under my belt.
