Erin's Book Challenge 9.0 // Bookworm

Hello friends! I've been super busy working on our house, hanging in there through tons of work events, and visiting with family who is in town! Whew. Not a lot of time for blogging or blog reading. I decided that I had to get some kind of post out there... because I miss it and I need some time for me! :) Hoping to check in with you guys VERY soon! :)

I'm such a mood reader. I want to read something fun and fast most of the time. Like a romance or fantasy novel... but then I go on non-fiction kicks. It's hard for me to follow through with challenges... but I adore them, and I adore Erin's group! So fun and encouraging! So... here's my 9.0 list. (last time I picked as I went... it kind of worked, but that's why there wasn't a post!)
