I thought I would create a separate post with just the books of the month I pick. One fiction and one non-fiction list. This way if you are looking for an easy way to find the books I have enjoyed the most, this is the list. To see the whole list see the What to read post which will continue to include the last month's books read and the books
of the month for that one month.
Hope this helps and enjoy!
