what i read: january 2018

I did a lot of reading this month. I have surprised myself with the number of books I read in January. I haven't read like this in a long time. It's nice to enjoy reading again. I have no idea if this amount of reading will continue through the year, but I've happily carved out a good chunk of my goal of 50 books read in 2018. ;)I read a lot of suspence/mystery this month. I go through phases in what I like to read, and it's been a while since I had a mystery/suspense phase. It's been nice!Total number of books read in January 2018: 14!Picture Book (3-5)Chewie and the Porgs - Kevin Shinick, Fiona Hsieh (Illustrations)Middle Grade (9-12)Goth Girl and the Sinister Symphony (Goth Girl #4) - Chris RiddellGhost of a Chance (100 Dresses #2) - Susan Maupin SchmidThe Serpent's Secret (Kiranmala and the Kingdom Beyond #1) - Sayantani DasGuptaHarry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Book 1) - J.K.
