2. Just One Look by Harlan Coben
3. The Last Time I Lied by Riley Sager
4. I Survived The Attack of the Grizzlies, 1967 by Lauren Tarshis

5. The Life We Bury by Allen Eskens
6. The Strangers in the Woods by Michael Finkel
7. No Exit by Taylor Adams
* Needs to be a movie

*Reread but still didn't like it any more.
11. The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton
* Reread and LOVED IT MORE the second time!
12. Grey by E.L. James
*Interesting view point to the series but it still did not make me want to finish the other books.
13. Deal of a Lifetime by Fredrik Backman
*So confused by this book. The premise is good, but the story fell short. Maybe it shouldn't have been a novella?
14. Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom
15. First Phone Call From Heaven by Mitch Albom
16. Beside Still Waters by Tricia Goyer
*What the what?! Had no idea that Amish books could be this intriguing!!
17. Hello Sunshine by Laura Dave
*I was pleasantly surprised by this book and it left me thinking... Is this really how it is for the Food Network Stars?
18. Along Wooded Paths by Tricia Goyer
*Sequel to Beside Still Waters. Seriously!! Amish books!!! Amazing!!

20. Beyond Hope's Valley by Tricia Goyer
*Amazing, amazing, amazing conclusion to the 'Beside Still Waters' series!!!
21. Six Years by Harlan Coben
22. Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell by Robert Dugoni
*Almost like Forrest Gump for the modern age. Wonderful read.
23. As You Wish by Cary Elwes
*Awesome behind the scenes story of the Princess Bride.
24. The Princess Bride by William Goldman (Abridged Audio Book)
25. White Christmas Pie by Wanda Brunstetter
*Okay, so maybe not all Amish books are amazing or else I really don't care for this author's style of writing.
26. Scrappy Little Nobody by Anna Kendrick
27. I Let You Go by Clare Mackintosh
28. Verity by Colleen Hoover
*Very fast read. Chilling. Suspenseful. Shocking twist!
29. Educated by Tara Westover
*Favorite Biography of all time. Cannot believe there are still people/families like this in the U.S. today!!
30. Wild Awakening by Greg Matthews
*Loved. Loved. Loved. Mountains, nature, bear attack, survival, God. Perfect combination.
31. Baby Teeth by Zoje Stage
32. Wolfhunter River by Rachel Caine
33. I Can't Make This Up by Kevin Hart
*Good and funny start, but when they hit celebrity status and loose their roots, it gets frustrating.
34. Silent Night, Holy Night by Colleen Coble
35. Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris
*OMG!!!!! Best thriller ever!! So many gut wrenching, heart pounding, physical emotions felt in this one!!
36. View From Rainshadow Bay by Collen Coble
37. The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls Wilder
*I am thankful for modern day luxuries and endless food. However, it is inspiring to read about being resourceful and meager.
38. November 9 by Colleen Hoover
*Thought I was going to be reading a thriller or a mystery, but instead this is a romance and it is wonderful.
39. The Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline
*Wonderful piece of historical fiction.
40. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by JK Rowling
41. Made From Scratch by Sandra Lee
*Interesting to learn about Sandra's start to life, but then the story went downhill for me. She became a celebrity and lost her humbleness. Lots of name dropping
42. Things You Save in a Fire by Katherine Center
*Amazing. Loved the characters right from the start and has the best epilogue ever written.
43. The Immortal Nicholas by Glenn Beck
*Best Christmas book ever written. Tying the all important meaning of Christmas into why Santa does what he does brought a whole new, eye opening view to Christmas.
44. The Last House Guest by Megan Miranda
*Did not care for this one. Storyline was hard to follow between past and present and flashbacks in the characters heads.
45. Thirteen by Steve Cavanagh
*Courtroom drama (but understandable and not boring) meets serial killer makes for one awesome book.
46. I Will Always Write Back by Martin Ganda
*Refreshes the heart on the impact of the OCC Shoeboxes even though this has nothing to do with them. So little for us does so much in third world countries.
47. Christmas Sisters by Sarah Morgan
*A deeper more character developed Christmas story worth reading.
48. A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park
*Story follows Martin, one of the Lost Boys of Sudan, all the way to adulthood.
49. The Christmas Star by Donna VanLiere
50. Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris
*Historical fiction love story. Makes you want to read follow up non-fiction books on WW2.
* Medical drama, powerful message of the power of prayer
