Book Recommendations from Interactive Post Online

A few days ago I shared an interactive post asking my friends and followers to share a book recommendation and why they liked the book so I could compile a list, and head about some new books.  The list is also posted on my Facebook and Instagram pages, the links to which can be found under the 'Connect with Me' heading on this website.
