These are some great ones. I really liked Orphan Train. I think you'll love All The Light We Cannot See. I'm currently reading the eighth and final book in the Anne series (Rilla of Ingleside). And I had to return The Secret Keeper to the library before I was finished but have it on hold when next available - it's also by Kate Morton. Let me know what you think of The Lake House.
Oh I've been wanting to read Orphan Train!!!! Good list. I am so excited to be back into reading this year!
I love how you categorized them here- so helpful!! :) I have What Alice Forgot waiting for me right now hehe!
I LOVED What Alice Forgot! It definitely kept me up way too late!
I LOVED Where'd You Go Bernadette! So great! Can't wait to read some more of the books on this list!
"For the Love" was a favorite of mine last year, and I know you're going to love "All the Light We Cannot See" --so good!
Ella Enchanted was a favorite of mine in high school! I'm excited to check out more on this list! :)
Such great picks for 2016! I haven't read a JoJo Moyes book yet, but I need to this year, along with the Orphan Train! I totally agree with you about staying up way too late to read Where'd You Go Bernadette and What Alice Forgot. I'm a huge fan of Liane Moriarty! Have you read any of her other books?
