Books I Read in 2011...

The Nester is doing a link-up over the next couple of days for everyone to share the books they read in 2011.  I LOVED looking back through my bookshelf at all the books I read this past year as I made this list.  I'm also loving reading others' lists to help me plan what I want to read in 2012.

What I Read: My Favorites

The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins
I couldn't put these books down.  I recommended them to my mom and she had the same problem.  If you haven't read them yet, you definitely, definitely should! 
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Burrows
This story takes place mostly on the island of Guernsey during the German Occupation and the time immediately following and is told in the form of letters sent back and forth between the characters.  A unique and fascinating read.
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

The movie was based on this book, which was written by Lionel Logue's grandson.
