So Many Books to Read
I love buying books but have so many unread books on my bookshelf that I don't know where to begin. At the top of my list are Educated, Untamed, and RGB's "My Own Words". Has anyone read one or more of these? Which one should I read first? These are all nonfiction but I'm also open to any amazing fiction books that I won't be able to put down. Thanks!

I did read Educated and loved that book! I haven't read any of the others though.

Thanks for the great advice and suggestions! I started Untamed and LOVE IT. I think Educated is going to be my next book before I start RGB's. Also, I had forgotten about how great Goodreads is. Thank you for reminding me about the Challenge! Thanks again for taking time to respond!

Hey, I haven't read any books you have mentioned. However, I can suggest you to read different kind of books at different times during a day. I prefer
1. reading non-fiction at morning or during the day;
2. fiction books at evening or after dinner;
3. Short stories at night before sleep / Audible.
I could read more books in this way last year and proudly complete my Goodreads Challenge. Hope it helps you too!
In case of difficulty in choosing the books, try choosing one with less pages, at least you have the chance to finish it soon even if it's interesting or not.

I've read two of the books on your list. Educated is a fascinating memoir and look at a survivalist life in Idaho. The book gets really dark (lots of abuse by the family patriarch) but is a story of triumph. I liked Doyle's book well enough. I'd love to read RGB's book and will put it on my list!
