Bookish

❉ Here are some tips on How to Find a Book Without Knowing the Title or Author.
❉ I like weird books so this list of Genre-defying Translated Fiction That Deserves More Attention made my reading list grow just a little bit bigger.
❉ Have you read Oprah’s Next Book Club Pick – Behold the Dreamers, Imbolo Mbue? I haven’t.

Life

❉ How do you want to finish out this year? Try asking yourself these 10 questions for mid-year reflection.
❉ Check out Forbes Top 10 Influencers List? While we didn’t make this list – if there were a list of the Top 1,000,000,000 Influencers – we’d totally be on it!!!

Great list, as always!! I have so little time to just browse the web that I always enjoy your lists.
I have only read one of the top books on the Goodreads list so far – The Hate U Give. That one definitely earns a spot on EVERY top list! Such an amazing, powerful book.
I bookmarked the tips for finding a book when you can’t remember the author or title – I’m sure that will come in handy! There’s another site I have been searching for & can’t find – it’s one where you can look up books by location/setting. I heard it mentioned on a podcast once but didn’t write it down…seems like it would be really useful!
Thanks for all the great links!
