But first, let me tell you what I've been reading.

May was a good month for reading! 
I read.....

38. A wrinkle in time- Madeleine L'Engle 
39. A wind in the door- Madeleine L'Engle 
40. A swiftly tilting planet- Madeleine L'Engle 
41. The reason I jump- Naoki Higashida (this book is written about autism by a boy who has autism; so interesting!) 
42. The happiness project- Gretchen Rubin (I read this every year)
43. The sun also rises- Ernest Hemingway 
**44. I never had it made- Jackie Robinson 
45. Forest gump- Winston Groom
**46. Looking for Alaska- John Green
**47. The nazi officer's wife- Edith Hahn Beer 

-----------------

**I never had it made is Jackie Robinson's autobiography. I love autobios and this one was so interesting! I learned a lot about Jackie outside of his baseball career. If you like autos, regardless of if you like sports, this was a good read. (this was my 3rd favorite for the month)

**Looking for Alaska is by the author who wrote the Fault in our stars. I loved this book! It was a quick, easy read. The story brought me in so much, I never wanted to put it down. I would definitely recommend this book. (this came in 2nd for the month)

**The nazi officer's wife is another autobiography. It takes place in ww2. Edith is a Jewish woman who ends up marrying a nazi officer during the war. Her life story is quite interesting. I love books about ww2, and this is definitely a must read! One of my favorites from the year. (#1 for the month)

As always, I want to know what you're reading, what you like, and what recommendations you have! 

{Let me know if you read any of these books and tell me how you liked them!}
