This was probably my favorite from last year! I listened to the audiobook and it was fantastic!

Danielle (a_bookish_shelf) | 36 comments I ended up reading a children's classic, as I knew the story but have not actually read the book. My sister and I agree it if well suits this category.

Alice's Adventure in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

Cyndy (cyndy-ksreader) | 231 comments I also read A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman. I highly recommend this book. It wasn't a page turner for me, but I loved the characters and wanted to know what was going to happen to them. Ove made me think of the movie Grumpy Old Men - he's mostly a less vocal version though!
