Another book from my 2018 book list, Give a Girl a Knife is the second memoir I’ve read. Spoiler: I’m kind of digging memoirs!
BR: The Golden House by Salman Rushdie Audiobook
I’ve really started to get into audiobooks as a way to distract me on my runs. They are longer than podcasts and help me knock off books from my 2018 list. The latest one I listened to on my wireless headphones is The Golden House by Salman Rushdie.
Nashville Marathon Training Weeks 13-15 + Running Blisters

Sisters First by Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Pierce Bush, from my 2018 book list, is a super cute (and short) book that reminded me of how lucky I am to have an awesome sister. 🙂

BR: THE POWER by Naomi Alderman
THE POWER by Naomi Alderman was the winner of the 2017 Baileys Women’s Prize for Fiction. It’s a thrilling story in an alternate reality where Beyonce’s famous “Run the World (Girls)” song is true.
BR: The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules
My review of the audio book: The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules by Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg narrated by Patience Tomlinson.
BR: Uncommon Type by Tom Hanks
Model-turned-actress, yes, but actor-turned-novelist? Uncommon. 😛 What’s more is that Uncommon Type by Tom Hanks popped up on lots of books lists, so I added it to my 2018 book list.
