I read 11 books in January:

One Crazy Summer by Rita Williams-Garcia

Wonder by R.J. Palacio
Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi

7 were fiction and 4 were nonfiction. My goal was at least two nonfiction this month! So yay. I made it! I've been doing a lot better on my reviews. I sill need to get Wonder and Homegoing up this next week.
Wonder was my favorite fiction book this month. I laughed and cried with son while we read it together. We had some great experiences together.
My absolute favorite nonfiction this month was Ghosts of the Tsunami. Five stars from me. It's truly an achievement in writing about humanity.
Looks like a good month. I am putting Ghosts of the Tsunami on my list. Have a good February ;-)
