The Beauty in 2020 Reading List

We’re halfway through the year, Summer is right around the corner, and with that comes summer reading and days spent laid out at the beach or park reading. Well, that’s what it used to mean. Even though visits to the park and beach might be limited this year, that shouldn’t stop your reading. With that being said, I figured this would be the perfect time for me to release my ever-growing 2020 Reading List. Some of these books are yearly rereads and some are carried over from my 2019 Reading List that I plan to knock out this year. I haven’t set a reading goal for the year, but between my Kindle Unlimited Membership and physical books, I’ve already read at least 12 books and counting… So here goes the list.
