As we approach the end of another year, it’s time to look back and reflect on all the amazing books that I discovered. As of November, I had already completed my Goodreads Challenge. I’m currently finishing up book #45 for the year. I probably would’ve been able to squeeze a few more in, had I not being spending so much time on my own book, but c’est la vie. It seems like a good trade off.
Of all the books I’ve read this year, a handful of them really stood out enough to make my list of “favorites.” If you’re a regular reader of mine, I’m sure you can already guess which ones I’m going to pick. 😛
Darker Shades of Magic trilogy by V.E. Schwab (My reviews: here, here, and here)
Bloody Rose by Nicholas Eames (Review here)
My Life in France by Julia Child (Review here)
City of Glass by Cassandra Clare (Review here)
Fragile Things by Neil Gaiman (Review here)
Let’s Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson (Review here)
It’s hard to narrow it down to just a few, isn’t it? What were some of your favorites this year?
I can’t possibly tell you my favourite books, that’s what the best of post is for!😂😝🤣
Glad to see someone else in the under 100 books read range!👍

I don’t know how the hell people can fit 100+ books in like that. Work makes that pretty much impossible for me.

Very true.👍 I’m a slow reader, that can, on occasion fly through a book but I have to be in the right mood, have the time, etc and when I do fly through one I feel sad it’s over and that I’ve read it so quickly. I couldn’t do it all the while and I’m sure people that read a book per day or every couple of days do enjoy them but I couldn’t. I agree with you, I’d rather enjoy the book than rush it.👍

I’m glad you liked it! I wish there was going to be more of them or a spin off series. I don’t want it to be done yet!
