To Read Pile Spring 2020

To Read Pile Spring 2020

My To Read right now is absolutely toppling over. I can’t remember the last time I had so many books to read. Mostly this can be attributed to my book buying habit, of which there is no cure. But also it’s gotten so out of hand because I’ve been reading less in 2020 than usual. I’ve been working on the podcast and my book so much (all good things!) plus some travel and general family life, and my brain has been just fried. Books aren’t holding my attention, so I’ve been focusing on quite a bit of nonfiction (where I can’t get lost in a plot, and can put it down for days or weeks at a time and it doesn’t matter).

I’m posting my full To Read list here as a way to stay accountable to reading most of these books over the coming months, and also in case you’re looking for inspiration on something to read.

I shared more about some of these books on the BONUS: My To Read Pile episode of the podcast.

I decided to break down the list into categories. **affiliate links are used in this post

Books to Give as Gifts

I love to give books as gifts, and there are so many genres and options that it works for so many recipients and is usually a very decent price point. Cookbooks, self-improvement, coffee-table books, inspiration, those are my go-to when gifting, because novels are way more of a gamble in terms of taste. (Although I did include a few recent best sellers here, in case you have someone who enjoys reading the most buzzed about books of the year.)

You can see all these books in one place here.

Summer reading list 2019

Summer reading list 2019

Is it just me or is 2019 turning out to be a FANTASTIC reading year? I’ve read more new releases than ever this year (though I plan to dip into some back lists and classics in the fall), and my To Read stack for the summer (when I do the most reading) is already toppling.

Reminder: I always share what I’m reading on my personal Instagram page, and give the most honest reviews in the Secret Posts. Let’s be friends on Goodreads!

Here is my To Read summer list, and I'll update this post with reviews as I go:
