Monday I shared Six 2019 Books That Deserved the Hype, plus Six That Didn’t, and today I’ll be turning to 2019 books that just didn’t seem to get the hype they deserved or as I like to think of them, “Underrated Gems.” Underrated Books We Think Deserve More Buzz is today’s challenge for #AMonthofFaves from Girlxoxo, and Traveling with T, the hosts for this annual month-long blog event. Everyone has those special books they just want to press into the hands of others and I’m hoping at least one of the six I share today will make it onto your “to be read” list!

Happy New Year everyone! We did it. We made it through another merry and bright holiday season. I hope yours was wonderful and that 2019 is already off to a great start. I took last Monday off from my weekly check-in, instead sharing My Year in Books for 2018 (lots of stats and some goals for 2019). So, today you’re getting My Week in Books x2. I was out of school those entire two weeks and had a good amount of reading time, but also travelled for six days in there. Without further ado, on with books I read over my Winter Break.

We’re in the midst of the busiest most crazy time of year, but in a few weeks all that will go away and most of our lives will be slowing down a bit. Snow and rain will be falling, keeping us inside, cozy and warm. For book lovers this is a perfect scenario. Just picture it: a quiet wet day, a fire blazing, a warm cup of coffee or tea, a cozy blanket and a wonderful new book. Could anything be better? Winter marks a season of incredible new releases and I’m excited about spending many, many days with them….
