Books that surprised me (Links to Goodreads):
Darling Rose Gold - I just built that one up so much in my head that I was a little let down. It was definitely still a good book though!
Fahrenheit 451 - I definitely tend to avoid classics, but I actually really enjoyed this one! It's crazy though because I could definitely see it happening in real life.
Know My Name - Just the subject matter gives me chills.
Let It All Burn - When my favorite author said she was going to write a paranormal book I was like um...no? Fantasy is never my thing. But I loved it!
