In my December wrap up post, I share my thoughts on all the books I read last month. Join me as I wrap up the year with some incredible reads and recommendations.

Top Books I Read in December

I'm excited to kick off today's wrap up with the best books I read in December. First on the list is 'The Great Alone' by Kristin Hannah. This gripping tale of survival in the Alaskan wilderness kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish.

Next, I dove into 'The Dutch House' by Ann Patchett. This beautifully written family saga had me emotionally invested in the characters and their journey. Highly recommended for fans of literary fiction.

Another standout read was 'The Starless Sea' by Erin Morgenstern. This whimsical and enchanting tale is a love letter to storytelling, and it completely swept me away.

Moving on to non-fiction, I thoroughly enjoyed 'Becoming' by Michelle Obama. Her memoir is both inspiring and thought-provoking, offering a behind-the-scenes look at her life in the White House.

Last but not least, I was captivated by 'Ninth House' by Leigh Bardugo. This dark and atmospheric novel explores the secret societies at Yale University and is perfect for fans of mystery and the supernatural.

These are just a few of the amazing books I read in December. Check out the post for more recommendations and my full thoughts on each one.
