The Queen of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner (a book about family)
The second book in The Queen's Thief series, it's a satisfying continuation. Must like the first book, TQOA is filled with twists, turns and beautiful characters.
What To Talk About by Chris Colin and Robert Baedeker (a book by an author whose first and last names start with the same letter)
A professor recommended this book to me. I'm a little disappointed? The book was humorous, but I didn't think the advice was particularly helpful. Didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know.
Also read, but not for the challenge:
