I'm excited to start in on my next round of the 5 Star Prediction project! I recently wrapped up my first go around on this project, and I had such a good time going through and picking out 5 more books that I think will be 5 star reads for me! Like last time, I'm not going to put a limit on the time I have to read these, and I will definitely be wrapping up my results of this round whenever I get the chance to read all 5 books!

The Smell of Other People's Houses by Bonnie-Sue Hitchcock
North by Scott Jurek

The Oracle Year by Charles Soule
