I went on a bit of a binge reading spree while on my blogging sabbatical. According to my Goodreads log, I read thirty-nine books during the past year and a half. I swear I feel like I missed a couple, but then again who's counting?
Anyway, today I'm sharing my favorite ten of those thirty-nine. None of them received five stars, but all of the ones I've included below I rated a solid four stars.
As a point of reference, I have very few books with a five star rating. Five star books are those that I can still remember vividly no matter how much time has passed, and they are typically books that I will read more than once. Four star books are those that I thoroughly enjoyed and would definitely recommend. However, with the passage of time I won't remember much about them nor will they go in the que for a second read.
So without further ado, here are ten books (in no particular order) you should add to your reading list if you haven't already.
A couple of thoughts on some of the above.
I could not put Between You and Me down. I listened to I Owe You One and wouldn't have enjoyed it nearly as much if I hadn't. Where the Crawdads Sing was excellent - it will be a movie someday. The Woman in Cabin 10 kept me on my toes. The Redemption series is really five books and I find them incredibly humbling and encouraging. I still need to watch The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society on Netflix. I've read all twenty-six Stephanie Plum novels and this one was far more enjoyable than the last few. Kulti is really sweet but a whole lot of pages. I can't remember a lot about The Kiss Thief, but I remember wishing it wasn't a stand alone novel. The Friend Zone was a good mix of sweet and funny and would make a great Hallmark movie.
What books have you read and loved? I'm always in the market for recommendations.

I haven't read any Sophia Kinsella books in awhile. I need to. I loved The Woman in Cabin 10.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Sophia Kinsella but haven't read that one. And Karen Kingsbury is my *favorite* author. I just finished one of her books Friday and started another by her that same night. Great post!
ReplyDeleteI have some reading to do because none of these have been read yet!
ReplyDeleteI need to read these. Thank you. Have you read The Flatshare?

I haven't! I will check it out!
DeleteI love the Stephanie Plum series and thought this latest one was great. I also enjoyed Where the Crawdad Sing.
ReplyDeleteYes! The last couple before 26 were just so-so for me so I was glad she was back on her game with this one. I really wonder wen they're going to turn this series into a sitcom!
