Books I'm Going To Read In 2017

Many people set goals when the New Year rolls around. As a bookworm, one of my goals this year is to read some new books whether they came out the following year or came out a few years ago. Also, I always love reading the same books I already read before like the Harry Potter series. The reason is I like to revisit the characters and world which the characters reside in.

So, Take a look at the list of books I’m going to read during 2017!

1. The Zodiac series by Romina Russell (Zodiac, Wandering Star, Black Moon)

I just started reading the first book of this series, and I like it so far. It’s about how our zodiac signs have their own society, and apparently there was a thirteenth sign. I got interested in reading it after I saw how cool the cover was.

2. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

I had never read the book, but after seeing the trailer of the movie, it made me curious to read it. This book is about a girl who was in a foster home, and she stole books, so she could learn how to read. It also took place during World War II. I’m not into a lot of historical fiction books, but if there’s a time period that I’m familiar with, then I read the book that took place during that time period.

3. Doctor Who: Time Lord Fairy Tales by Justin Richards

If you like Doctor Who and fairy tales, here’s a book that has both. My boyfriend got me this book for Christmas, and I honestly can’t wait to read it. This book has different fairy tales, like "Little Red Riding Hood", "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves", and many more.

4. Nicholas Sparks Books: See Me, The Best of Me, and The Choice

I haven’t read See Me and The Choice, but I will read them during 2017. I’ve read The Best of Me, and I would love to read it again as one of my re-reads.

5. The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins (The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, Mockingjay)

Since I wasn’t able to read it during my Christmas break, but I mentioned in my article “List of Books I Might Read During My Christmas Break” that if I don’t read some of the books on the list, they will end up in my books to read during 2017.

6. Firstlife by Gena Showalter

I haven’t read this book either, but I would love to read it because the cover is very interesting and the story sounds really interesting as well. It’s about a life during the afterlife.

7. Everland by Wendy Spinale

This book is a fairy tale retelling of Peter Pan. Since I’m a big Peter Pan fan, I thought to myself “I have to read this book.” And I’m so excited to read it.

8. The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer (Cinder, Scarlet, Cress, Winter, Fairest, Stars Above)

Speaking of fairy tale retellings, this book series has different fairy tales with a science fiction twist. I got interested in reading Cinder when I first saw it, and I wasn’t sure if I would like it or not. Now, since it’s a series, I would like to read the rest of them as well.

9. Passenger by Alexandra Bracken

I got interested in reading this book since I saw how awesome the cover is. The book tells the story of a girl who was kidnapped by people from this ship. I mean, when I read the plot of the book, it confused me a bit, and from the cover, it looked like a pirate ship in the reflection of the city in the bottle. Despite the confusion, I’m interested in reading it.

I would add more books to my list, but I would end up changing my mind about what I truly want to read during 2017. Anyway, I’m excited about reading the books that I have never read before, and the books that I have read before as well.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
