1 - Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the UniverseReally enjoyed this easy read. Lots of depth to the characters and a great storyline.
2 - The Blood of Heroes: The 13-Day Struggle for the Alamo--and the Sacrifice That Forged a Nation Hubby and I listened to this while he joined be on a week long business trip to Texas. The book was well researched and engaging and we were able to visit a few places mentioned (but not the Alamo this trip).
3 - The Girl with the Dragon TattooReally enjoyed finally reading this and look forward to the rest of the series!
4 - 40 Chances: Finding Hope in a Hungry WorldIf you're interested in agriculture and food security, this is absolutely a great read. Howard Buffet is a son of Warren Buffet and runs one of the family's non-profits focused on improving food security around the world.
5 - The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie SocietyI adored this book! It's been on my TBR list and I was having one of those "I don't know what to read" days. I'm so glad I picked it up. Loved the characters and went through withdrawal once I finished.
I dug into the rest of the Millennium Triology this week. I really enjoyed the series and we'll miss Lisbeth. 6 - The Girl Who Played with Fire
7 - The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest

Given that I'm (re) starting in June... My goal will be 20 books for the rest of the year. I might try to get a few mini challenges in there too.
