From Alyssa With Love Book Club - Read With Me!

Friday, February 6, 2015


Welcome to the first Friday of the month! One of my goals this year is to read more books. Now that I'm no longer in school, I feel like reading helps keep my brain active along with everything else I do. (Like writing this blog, painting again, and learning another language... but we'll talk about all of that later.) Last month I read Dark Places by Gillian Flynn and I highly recommend it. If you loved reading Gone Girl or you just love a good murder mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end, then Dark Places is a must read! It's the story of girl named Libby whose family is murdered, she survives, and her brother goes to prison for the murders. Then 25 years later the case is reopened and Libby will find out the truth of what really happened that dreadful night. The Kindle version is only $3 on Amazon! If you don't have a Kindle don't worry, you can download the free Kindle app on your computer, tablet, or smartphone. This month I will be reading Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness by Susannah Cahalan. It's a true story of a 24 year old girl's "decent into madness." Mental illness is something I deal with everyday in my life, so I hope this will be an inspiring book for myself and everyone to read. If you'd like to join me in reading this book, you can pick it up from Amazon for under $10.
