2016 has almost ended and it’s time to share my most memorable books from the past 12 months. It’s always hard to whittle down the list because, as many librarians believe, there is always another great read just around the corner. No matter if you enjoy Fiction or Non-Fiction, this list will give you the opportunity to travel around the world. Get ready to visit Alaska, Martha’s Vineyard, Naples, Italy, New York City, Mississippi, Appalachia, Boston and Denmark. Enjoy your trip!
