This is an amazing book that in just four months enabled me to complete a novel I have been agonizing over for six years, write two eco guidebooks from scratch, and spend a lot more time with my family instead of writing all the time.

The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan I’ll admit, I have been disappointed with the paranormal YA novels I’ve read lately. I’ve read some great novels, but many of the hyped, popular novels that everyone else has loved have fell flat for me. I knew I wanted to read The Forest of Hands

The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, Book 1 (The Inheritance Trilogy) by N.K.
