Recently, I've been really into reading all of Agatha Christie's books. I own six of her books in paperback format so I powered through all of them these past two weeks and realized that I didn't really have the desire to write a full review for all of them. So what resulted was a round-up review post! I'll be reading a lot more Agatha Christie in the future but this is a good start! I'm splitting up the reviews so this is part 1 of 2!

2016 Wrap-Up (the year that started out gloriously before deteriorating)
The time has arrived yet again for a yearly wrap-up! 2016 certainly flew by and while I wasn't so successful with everything I wanted to do, I'm feeling good about going into 2017 with better goals and such. I'll be posting my 2017 resolutions in the next few weeks but for now, let's reflect on 2016 (AKA the year that began wonderfully and ended disastrously).
This year, I employed the use of a spreadsheet to keep track of the books I read and things about them so I can actually have some stats this year! I've made some infographics and charts and things so enjoy!

R&R Review Sunday: Kill Devil Hills by Sarah Darlington
Goodreads Blurb:
"He’s twenty-four. She’s eighteen.
His life is exactly the way he’s always wanted it to be...stable.
She’s quite possibly the very definition of unstable.
Noah saved her.
Georgina never wanted to be saved.
Growing up, Noah Clark was passed from one relative to the next until he finally ended up living with his abusive, alcoholic uncle in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina. Thanks in part to the unwavering love and support of his best friend, Ellie Turner, Noah survived those years, escaped his uncle, and grew into the man he is today. Now he runs his own business and lives a pretty normal, no-nonsense life—one where he maintains a high level of control.
Georgina is Ellie’s younger sister. Four months ago, Noah saved Georgie’s life, but he thought that was where his involvement with his friend’s sister would end. Now Georgie has returned home from the recovery facility her parents sent her away to and Noah, still haunted by the night that connects them, can’t stop himself from continuously trying to protect this girl he barely knows. But is he willing to give up all of the control he’s worked so hard to build in his life and risk everything for her? Even more importantly, would she do the same for him?"
