    Oh gosh, there are so many books I am grateful for, so I guess the best answer I can think of this, I am grateful for books in general. Without them, my free time and my life in general would be pretty darn sorrowful. LOL! :p Thanks for the giveaway, Arlene! :) xoxo

    I LOVED On the Island. I still need to read TBH and Me Before You! The book I'm thankful for is The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay. So good!

    Just Don't Fall, by Josh Sundquist (his story of losing a leg to childhood cancer and going on to compete in the paralympics). I'm waiting to get my hands on his book We Should Hang Out Sometime!

    So many, but I recall reading The Love Stone by Deanna James when I was 11 or 12 and that sparked my love for romance novels.

    The best books I've read this year, the ones I'm really grateful for, are "Code Name Verity" and "Rose Under Fire" by Elizabeth Wein. My grandfather served during World War II so I grew up listening to his stories, and on a student trip to Europe we visited a concentration camp, so these books hold special significance to me.

    Thank you for the giveaway! :)
