Books of 2017


This past year, I read a lot. More than I have ever in a year. I don't know I did it, but I did. I also came across "cozy" mysteries. My sister wanted to know why I continued to read some of the cozy series, and I think it's because I get sucked into the world that the author has created; I keep wanting to find out what's going to happen to the character. Regardless, for some reason, these books have become my favorite books to read while relaxing. So, the following are the books I read in 2017:

1.  The Madwoman Upstairs--Catherine Lowell
2.  The Secret Ingredient of Wishes--Susan Bishop Crispell
