Looking for some amazing books to read in 2016?

Me, too. I keep a running wishlist of books I want to read someday, and when I heard about the Goodreads 2016 Reading Challenge, I decided to kick it up a notch. To enhance my existing list, I reached out to some of my favorite working moms and bookworms, whom I knew would not steer me wrong. The following fab ladies suggested some of the titles you’ll see on my Books to Read in 2016 list:

I divided my list into three categories: Work (career, entrepreneurship, professional development, leadership, etc.); Love (relationships, parenting, marriage, etc.); and Play (humor, escape, literary fiction, hobby, etc.) If you click on any of the affiliate links below and buy the book through Amazon, you’ll be helping support WMAG. So read up, people! I need your help to support my book-lovin’ habit.
