———–To Read———–
This month I want to read the new release, Reached. For review, I’m going to read Timeless. I’m going to read 2 books I own – one physical book and one ebook. For the physical book, I’m going to read Raven Boys. I’ve been looking forward to reading it ever since I got it signed. For the ebook I’m going to read Cate of the Lost Colony. I thought reading about pilgrims would get me in the Thanksgiving mood :)
