❤️👄 I’M THE GIRL👄❤️ Thank you so much to @wednesdaybooks and @summerscourtney for the book, signed bookplate and art print! I’m the Girl - Courtney Summers “All sixteen-year-old Georgia Avis wants is everything, but the poverty and hardship that defines her life has kept her from the beautiful and special things she knows she deserves. When she stumbles upon the dead body of thirteen-year-old Ashley James, Georgia teams up with Ashley’s older sister Nora, to find the killer before he strikes again, and their investigation throws Georgia into a glittering world of unimaginable privilege and wealth—and all she’s ever dreamed. But behind every dream lurks a nightmare, and Georgia must reconcile her heart’s desires with what it really takes to survive. As Ashley’s killer closes in and their feelings for one another grow, Georgia and Nora will discover when money, power, and beauty rule, it’s not always a matter of who is guilty but who is guiltiest—and the only thing that might save them is each other. I’m the Girl is a brutal and illuminating account of how one young woman feels in her body as she struggles to navigate a deadly and predatory power structure while asking readers one question: if this is the way the world is, do you accept it?” 📚 What’s your most recent book mail? #imthegirl #courtneysummers #bestbookoftheyear #feministbooks #metoo #yabook #youngadult #yathriller #thriller #youngadultfiction #youngadultthriller #sadie #effthepatriarchy #queerbooks #lgbtqyabooks #lgbtqbooks #queeryabooks #investigativejournalism #truecrimepodcasts #murdermystery #feminism
✨Book Recommendation✨ JAMES by Percival Everett 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I cannot believe this is my first book by Percival Everett, but I can tell you this author has gained a new fan, and I’ll now be working my way through all of his books! I’m not quite even sure how to begin this review. JAMES is the type of novel I know will become a classic with time. From Everett’s writing talent to his ability to capture a story that has been long overdue, I was invested from start to finish. I’ve seen this book labeled as a reimagining of the story of Huckleberry Finn. I would have to politely disagree with this narrative. Everett has provided the opportunity for readers to see Twain’s character up close and personal; to witness a revisiting of the classics’ canon that for far too long has only been inhabited by white male authors. This story somehow captures all the emotions that make good writing and solid storytelling work. I was so captivated by James and so incredibly invested in his journey. The hype is very well deserved on this one, friends. I think this just might just be the best book of the year for me so far. Highly highly encourage you to bump this one up on your TBR. You won’t be disappointed. #james #percivaleverett #bestbookoftheyear #mayreads #bookstagram #readersofig #cantstopthinking #smashthecanon

I'M FERAL FOR THIS BOOK! Sky's End by Marc J Gregson (@mjg_write) is such a well-done Fantasy book it's hard to put it into words. I don't know why I haven't seen it circulating Instagram as much as others, but you HAVE to check it out. In this meritocracy, only the strong can rise in rank and status. One sixteen-year-old has held that High rank and is now Low. Conrad has it tough, but he is focused on rising through his own abilities. In a world of islands floating in the sky and dangerous metal beast snaking through the air, Conrad is up against a tough rise. I absolutely loved the character development. I was suprised enough by what happened that made me keep wanting more. This book is a mix of competition and political intrigue. I don't want to give anything away because it's an experience you won't forget. I haven't been this feral about a book since Fourth Wing, and while they don't have much in common, if you liked the deadly nature of the training in Fourth Wing and want characters you would go to war for - then this is your book! I had the pleasure of listening to the audiobook read by Vikas Adam (@vikasadam) and it was hands down one of the best books I've listened to ever! The characterizations were so well done that I was totally immersed. Thank you so much for your amazing work on this book! It was also just announced that the book was picked up for film rights and I am soooo ready for it if it comes to be! It is such a great story that would be amazing to see on screen! The second book in the series (I think trilogy) is set to release Spring 2025! I already have the signed hardback book pre-ordered 😆 I love this book so much I'm asking everyone to read it! #fantasybooks #bestbookoftheyear #bookrecommendations #bookreview #fourthwing #readthis #readthisbook #youngadultbooks #youngadultfantasy

@alexandra.andrews.writer broke through in 2021. Her debut novel "Who is Maud Dixon" took @youtube, @instagram and @goodreads by storm. The novel follows ambitious book publishing assistant Florence Darrow, whose affair with her married boss ends badly, forcing her to find another job. She soon finds herself in Morocco working for the reclusive Maud Dixon. However, her happiness doesn't last after a car accident and memory loss leave her reeling. @mariasemple_writer_cln summarized it as “Part Patricia Highsmith, part All About Eve and pure fun.” @newyorktimes, @npr , @nypost , @entertainmentweekly and @crimereads named it "A Best Book of the Year." Have you read "Who is Maud Dixon"? Would you consider reading it now? #whoismauddixon #whoismauddixonbook #alexandraandrews #alexandraandrewsauthor #thrillerbook #identitythriller #bestbookoftheyear #bestbook #bestbooks2021 #bookpublishingindustry #mysterybooks
Znacie książki, w których występuje wątek amnezji/utraty wspomnień u bohatera? "Foul Heart Huntsman" to kontynuacja mojej ukochanej "Foul Lady Fortune". Po zakończeniu pierwszej części miałam wiele pytań, mało odpowiedzi i morze niecierpliwości w oczekiwaniu na poznanie dalszych losów bohaterów. I pod tym względem kontynuacja mnie nie rozczarowała. Po tragicznych w skutkach wydarzeniach z pierwszego tomu Rosalind musi znaleźć w sobie siłę, by przeć naprzód pomimo straty, jakiej doświadczyła, a także opracować nowy plan, który nie tylko pozwoli jej odnaleźć Oriona, ale też funkcjonować w siatce nacjonalistów po ujawieniu opinii publicznej jej tożsamości. Krajowe tournee wydaje się najlepszym pomysłem, by połączyć te dwa cele. Tymczasem Szanghaj zaczynają spowijać coraz ciemniejsze chumry, a widmo konfliku nieustannie się zbliża. Co poświęcą postacie, by osiągnąć upragnione cele? Chloe Gong po raz kolejny udowodniła swój ogromny talent w kreowaniu przede wszystkim wątków politycznych. Stawka jest tu namacalna, podobnie jak poczucie nadchodzącego zagrożenia. Owszem, czasami polityczne konotacje bohaterów mogą wydawać się lekko zagmatwane, szczególnie że niektórzy nie mają tak jednoznacznych intencji, jak mogłoby się wydawać, ale ja nie odczułam tego jako przeszkody. Dodatkowo posłowie autorki jak zawsze rozjaśnia wiele historycznych aspektów. Już nie wspominając o tym, że dzięki nim możemy poznać skrawek historii, o którym nie mówiło się zbyt dużo na lekcjach w szkole. Bohaterowie jak zawsze nie zawodzą. W tym tomie dużo czasu spędzają razem, a dynamika między nimi jest bezbłędna. A co do samej akcji, zapewniła mi całą gamę emocji. Od rozbawienia, przez czysty szok, po smutek na tyle duży, że miałam łzy w oczach. Aktorka zdecydowanie nie obchodziła się z moją psychiką delikatnie. Czy książka ma jakieś wady? Myślę, że dla wielu moja to być jej długość. Ja sama też uważam że te 600 stron można było skrócić bez konsekwencji dla akcji, ale z drugiej strony dało mi to okazję do spędzenia więcej czasu z ukochaną ekipą. Zakończenie kosztowało mnie zbyt wiele emocji, ale koniec końców kończę swoją przygodę z tą serią z dużą satysfakcją.
BOOK REVIEW: Title: James Author: Percival Everett Publisher: Knopf Doubleday ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow. This book lives up to every bit of the hype and more. I’m sad it’s over, and I don’t want to read anything else. I absolutely love how James reclaims the narrative in this Huckleberry Finn retelling. He is an incredible character, the writing is spectacular, and it’s the best book I’ve read this year. No need to read Huckleberry Finn to keep up—I read a couple pages of the sparknotes and that was absolutely fine. I could say so much more, but I loved being surprised by certain elements of the story and want others to be surprised too. Read this book—you will be glad you did. 📚 Did you read it? Feel free to gush about it with me in the comments! And tell me what I can read next so this amazing book doesn’t send me into a book slump!
Better than the movies 6⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #bestbookoftheyear
📚Oh my goodness, what a phenomenal book! There’s the beautiful writing, characters that feel so real and go through such terrible times, and yet find solace in true friendship and love, there are multi-layered timelines and events that make the story incredibly compelling, and last but not least, it’s a book that pays a moving tribute to all the millions of victims of the AIDS epidemic - I cried so much… this book will stay with me for a long time! This is literature at its very best! Highly recommended!❤️📚 @rebeccamakkai #thegreatbelievers #booklove #bestbookoftheyear #bookstagram #literature #mustread #helenesbooknook #lgbt #lgbtcommunity
📚 Weyward by Emilia Hart ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Weyward is the story of three women, Altha, Violet, and Kate. Separated by centuries but connected in so many ways. Set in three time periods, 1619, around the time the Witch trials were sweeping across England, 1942 and 2019. The story starts to unfold and evolve, and the three women's lives become entwined. This book was totally gripping from start to finish, and I loved the growth of each character, especially Kate, who grew into a strong young woman. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I didn't want it to end, and never have I wanted to live in a cottage so bad!

It's April 1st, and the first book I read this year is still my favorite book of the year so far. I still think about this book. The characters live rent-free in my head. It's sooooo good! At 800+ pages it'd a commitment, but it's so worth it! I feel sorry for every other book I read this year because it will be compared to A Day of Fallen Night. Is this one on your TBR? #bestbookoftheyear #bestbookoftheyearsofar #adayoffallennight #samanthashannon #bookphotography #tradepaperback #standardpaperback #1stquarter #1stquarterwinner
Liz Buxbaum has always known that Wes Bennett was not a boyfriend material. You would think that her next door neighbour would be a prime candidate for her romantic comedy fantasies, but Wes has only proven himself to be a pain in the butt, ever since they were little. Wes was the kid who put a frog in her Barbie dream house, the monster who hid a lawn gnome's severed head in her little homemade neighbourhood book exchange. Flash forward 10 years from the Great Gnome Decapitation. It's Liz's senior year, a time meant to be rife with milestones perfect for any big screen, and she needs Wes's help. See, Liz's forever crush, Michael, has just moved back to town, and -horribly, annoying - he's hitting it off with Wes. Meaning that if Liz wants Michael to finally notice her, and hopefully behave from date, she needs Wes. He is her in. But as Liz and Wes scheme to get Liz her magical prom moment, she's shocked to discover that she actually likes being around Wes. And as they continue to grow closer, she must reexamine everything she thought she knew about love- and rethink her own prescription of what Happily Ever After should really look like.

I'll be surprised if anything tops this as my favorite book of the year. While I might first have described this as a retelling of Huck Finn from Jim's perspective, Everett describes it as in conversation with the novel Huck Finn and that feels perfect. When the novel opens, Jim has heard he is going to be sold away from his family and decides to run in hopes of being able to escape and find a way to free his wife and daughter. The events in the first part of the book closely mirror the events in Huck Finn, but narrated from James' perspective, it is a very different story. Huck and James are separated and reunited and James' has to decide how much he is willing to trust Huck. This novel is brilliant - it is smart and wryly funny and so, so well crafted. The characters are perfection - especially James, and somehow Huck as written by Everett feels true to Huck as written by Twain and I really don't know how Everett pulled that off so smoothly. Such an excellent read - pick this one up today. #BestBookOfTheYear #Retelling #ModernClassics #BooksThatMakeMeThink #ReadSoulLit

Monstrous things happening to your ancestors doesn’t give you a free pass to treat others as less than or entitle you to anything. And to do it with some sort of religious connotation behind it? Best I can tell, Israel is a modern Sodom and Gomorrah…and there’s hope and grace for everyone, including Sodom and Gomorrah, but still… Stop…mothers should be able to go get flour to feed their children and not come home to them buried in rubble… #peoplearehard #idontunderstand #godisloveandlight #thisisdarknessandhate #palestine #lovewins #dontbeabully #readdiversebooks #learnthings #educateyourself #dontbelievethelies #ilovemylibrary #prayforpalestine #bestbookoftheyear #fovestarread #readthisbook #somanybookssolittletime #neverendingtbr #bookstagram

Неопитомена 💕💐 @lifetimepublishing Тази книга е много подходяща за месеца на жената. Ако се чудите какво да вземете като подарък на вашите любими жени, вземете им книга, за да им вдъхне малко смелост и вдъхновение! ❤️ Гленън Дойл е жена 40+ с три деца и втори брак с друга жена. Тя е писателка и активистка в защита на жените. Още с излизането на книгата през 2020г., The New York Times я нарежда на първо място и много медийни издания я определят като една от най-добрите книги на годината. Започнах да чета с малко внимание, защото обикновено големите очаквания ни разочароват. Но постепенно авторката засяга теми, познати на повечето жени по света и няма как да не се познаеш с някои неща. Засяга много важни теми като родилството, развода, феминизма и липсата на женска еманципация и по-скоро промяна на възгледите спрямо традиционните структури на семейството. Книгата е изключителна изповед на женското страдание и борба за доказване. Дава отговори на много неудобни въпроси, които всеки тайно си задава, но не смее на каже на глас. Една изповед, която те кара да се замислиш за твоята роля като майка, съпруга, приятелка. Препоръчвам с две ръце!🙌🏻 #books #bookstagram #womenmonth #march #bookblogger #glennnondoyle #untamed #untamedbooks #bestbookoftheyear #womenempowerment #getuntamed #bestseller #womenpower #inspirationalbooks #womansday #home #reader #неопитомена #гленъндойл #вдъхновяващикниги #книги #обичамдачета #женскасила #март #

Mad Honey - Jennifer Finney Boyan and Jodi Picoult ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Magnificent, absolutely Magnificent! This is going to be a difficult one to review, mainly as I went in blind which turned out to be a blessing. Firstly it appears to be a straightforward whodunnit from reading the blurb and I’m so pleased that’s all the prior information I had. I had not seen the media buzz nor reviews, some of which have outrageous spoilers which would ruin the whole experience. Even if this book had a terrible plot (which it doesn’t), this would still be a fascinating and informative read with information littered through the main story about wildlife and history. An abundance of bee facts that literally wowed me! But this is a fictional read with a deeply moving storyline. We hear from two perspectives, Olivia, a single mother who has not had it easy and is extremely protective of her only son Asher; then Lilly, a newcomer to town who starts a relationship with Asher before her untimely death. How she dies is the journey we are on, and was there foul play at hand. It would appear the only one who knows the truth about her death is Lilly herself. The narrative is flashback-flashforward which gives us a deeper understanding of both Lilly and Olivia’s character. There is a fair bit of courtroom drama but it’s nothing too over dominating, but tense and exciting all the same. The book covers a number of triggers, from bullying, domestic abuse, prejudice and discrimination, but covered well and with sensitivity. The characters are rich and true, it really was a delicious read. I really don’t think this book will be beaten this year by any other i will read this year and this was finished in January! It’s a keeper and I have recommended and purchased this for many others since reading it. THOROUGHLY RECOMMENDED! #fivestarreview #madhoney #bookreview #bestbookoftheyear #exquisiteread #topbook #fabfiction #fivestarbook #jodipicoultnovel #jenniferfinneyboylan

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 ‼️🤩BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR ALERT🤩‼️ Nightwatching by @tsierraauthor 5 OUTSTANDING stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ All Time Favourites List! 🏆 Pulse-pounding, edge-of-your-seat tension from start to finish! Best thriller I’ve read in YEARS! 🙌🏻 Middle of the night. A blizzard storm. Home alone with her young children, a woman finds an intruder creeping through the dark shadows of her house. She quickly wakes the children to find a hiding spot. I had an immediate connection with this intense story. After the first chapter, I was 100% invested in this propulsive storyline. I was engaged and consumed with the endearing and vulnerable characters. I was deeply submerged in the thick, claustrophobic atmosphere. I was nail-bitingly curious about what would happen next. I was quite literally hanging on every single word of this anxiety-inducing storyline from start to finish. My heart rate was beating at top speed while flying through these pages. I was thinking of this book constantly while I wasn’t reading it and trying to sneak in a few pages at every opportunity. Bottom line, this is a phenomenal psychological thriller that I highly recommend! I am in shock that this is a debut novel. It exceeded my expectations on every level. 👏🏻 I am eagerly waiting for whatever this author writes next! If there is one thriller you read this year, let it be THIS ONE! This new release published earlier this month. Run to your nearest bookstore or library and get your hands on a copy NOW! 🏃 Thank you, @reading.with.my.goldens , for putting this book on my radar!

Sam knew the foot was gone. He could see it was gone. He knew what he was experiencing was a basic error in programming, and he wished he could open up his brain and delete the bad code. Unfortunately, the human brain is every bit as closed a system as a Mac. ❤️ I love this book....it might even end up as my top 4 at the end of the year.... depends on what else the year will bring. Anyway, I spent the last 4h reading it as I couldn't stop. It speaks my language....like Sadie and Sam spoke the same language. #booksofinstagram #booklover #bookclub #ilovereading #bookworm #bestbooks #bestbookoftheyear #ili_bookescape #ksiazkigodnepolecenia #ksiazkimojamilosc
📚🎉 HAPPY PUB DAY 🎉📚 THE BOOK OF DOORS by @garethjbrown13. I read this one last year, and it's finally available to everybody. In honor of pub day, I am posting my review again. Many thanks to @williammorrowbooks, @netgalley, and @harpercollins for my #gifted (free) copy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️++++++ I'm saying this right now. This will be THE book of 2024!!!!!! This book was absolutely incredible from start to finish, and I can not believe this was written by a debut author. I am not a big fantasy reader, but the synopsis just sounded good, and I was in the mood for something different. I am so glad I read this, and I am sure this will be the most talked about book of 2024!!! This will definitely be a reread for me. That's how good it is! Definitely add this one to your list. You will not be disappointed!!! Cassie works at a cute little cozy Bookshop in New York City. She is gifted a book called The Book Of Doors by her favorite customer, Mr. Webber. Cassie is about to discover this is no ordinary book. This book is magical and will take her to any door in the world as long as she is standing in a doorway and holding the book. Cassie also soon discovers that a lot of people are searching for The Book of Doors, and she could be in danger. I loved all the characters in this book, and I will definitely be thinking about this one for a long time! Gareth Brown, I will be reading everything you write!!! ❓️ QOTD: What is a book that you would reread? ❓️ #thebookofdoors #garethbrown #garethjohnbrown #Williammorrow #netgalley #booksaboutbooks #fantasybooks #fivestarbookreview #bestbookof2024 #highlyanticipated #readthisbook #booksrecs #bookphoto #goodreads #magicalbooks #bookrecsforyou #mustreadbooks #Missouribookstagrammer #Newyorkcity #specialbooks #booklovers #bookstore #bookstoreambiance #favoritebookoftheyear #bestbookoftheyear #bookshopsetting #secretlibrary #happypubday

Book no2 of 2024 - How to Kill Men and Get Away With It - Katy Brent - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow!! I love it when a book is so wonderfully gripping and witty that it’s all you can think about until you’ve binged it in its entirety in a matter of days. Then go and tell everyone about it! I loved HTKMAGAWI for a number of reasons which undoubtedly make it a 5 star read from me. Firstly I was given some nostalgia I didn’t know I was craving from the fact that Kitty and her crew are all based in Chelsea. Although I’m a Derby girl, when I was 16 I found myself living in London at a prestigious drama school for 2 years surrounded by the poshest (still my best friends now) and craziest people from a completely different world to me. One of whom still lives in Chelsea and mixes with the cast of made in Chelsea. I have so many fond memories of staying with Becca, and the language and conversation kitty and her friends have, instantly takes me back to my visits to Chelsea to escape the real world. I just loved it and it touched a piece of my teenage heart. Another reason I adored this read was the perfect mix of whit and dark humour accompanying such a gruesome and serious theme. This is a tonic I am an absolute sucker for in both fiction and real life. Can’t beat having a giggle through the trauma! And lastly, SA will always be the topic I am most passionate about, and the fact that kitty put so much on the line for her hatred for assaulters was just insane. What a woman! I urge everyone to read this book! You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll be chilled to the bone! Now I’m off to listen to @but_katy_did_it ‘s next release, The Murder after the night before! 🩷 #bookstagram #bookstagramuk #bookreview #fivestar #fivestarread #booksbooksbooks #booklover #bookstagrammer #booktok #whitty #tbh #tbr #tbrpile #booksaremylife #reading #mustread #mustreadbooks #5starbooks #sa #musthave #bestbookoftheyear #february #februaryreads #author #aspiringauthor
***potential spoilers*** This book feels like Taming of the Shrew meets Lord of the Rings meets Pride and Prejudice and then gets sent to Iceland. Book by @heather_fawcett One of the quippy conversations between main characters that made me laugh. Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries follows a Cambridge scholar named Emily and her colleague Wendell Bambleby‘s misadventures cataloging the variety of Fae in the world and their attributes. Emily herself is a no nonsense person singularly minded and driven towards her own scholarly goals, and in such is antisocial and downright taciturn at some points. Wendell is her opposite in every way, he is a neat freak and a pampered ray of sunshine determined to keep her in his sights. I would almost describe him as a diva. But he (literally) would do anything for Emily and follow her to the ends of the mortal world. Their dynamic is hilarious, he calls her his dragon and I’ve never swooned more in a book. At one point he tells her to breathe onto an enemy and it would “split them in half” such is her ferocity and coldness in his eyes. I love this book!!!! Keep your dictionary handy and you’re in for a vocabulary Easter egg hunt. #emilywilde #emilywildesencyclopaediaoffaeries #heatherfawcett #fantasy #romance #books #bookstagram #booktok #bestbookoftheyear

El tiempo se percibe de forma diferente para todos. “dos acontecimientos pueden tener lugar de forma simultánea desde la perspectiva de un observador, pero puede ocurrir en momentos diferentes desde la perspectiva del otro. Y ambos observadores estarían en lo cierto.” -Albert Einstein- Mientras unos se tardan 5 minutos en hacer una fórmula matemática, otros se tardan 1 semana. Es un tema de cómo se aprecia el tiempo y cuanto disfrutamos de hacer las cosas. Si miramos la vida desde la carencia constantemente, jamás serás capaz de aprender de tu presente. Vivirás en sobrevivencia y sin propósito. Y esto genera mucha insatisfacción. Hemos vivido tanto en sobrevivencia, que no somos capaces de aprovechar la oportunidad de nuestro presente. La vida es ahora. Nada va ser perfecto y nadie te va salvar. No te sabotees por una pajita que le cayó a la leche. Hay que aprender a aceptar las cosas como vienen y hacer con lo que tienes tú mejor versión. Unos limones en una margarita siempre sabrán mejor. Excelente semana 😉 #bestbookoftheyear #ikigai #stoplookingformistake #startiliveinjoy #leyderelatividad
✨ 2023 Faves: First Place ✨ Code Name Hélène Written by Ariel Lawhon Friends. This 👏🏼 is 👏🏼 it. THE best book I read last year. The best WWII historical fiction I’ve ever read. Ever. It’s better than The Nightingale. Yeah, I said it. If you’ve been here for any length of time this will come as no surprise to you. I have made it my personal mission as the self-appointed President of the Code Name Hélène fan club to force this book on everyone. In short, this is the story of Nancy Wake, a Paris-dwelling Australian expat turned Allied spy. All I can really say is “WOW”. Nancy Wake was a force to be reckoned with! This has everything I love in a book, especially in a historical fiction. Short chapters, dual timelines, romance, suspense, and an incredible main character who I have the utmost respect for. I will warn you that if you are sensitive to certain content there are a couple intense & possibly difficult to read scenes. However, they serve as a reminder that some of the acts committed during war are gruesome and barbaric and horrifying. Please, do yourself a favor and read this book. My review cannot possibly do it justice. You need to read it and experience it for yourself. . #bestbookoftheyear #bestbookof2023 #codenamehelene #thewonderfilledreader #ariellawhon #nancywake #fivestars #fivestarbook #mustread #historicalfiction #histfic #flatlay #bookstagram #booklover #bibliophile #bookworm #booktok #wwiihistoricalfiction #wwiihistfic #bestofthebest #bookrec #bookrecommendations #bookreview #readersgonnaread #readersofinstagram #readersofig #myfavoritebook
You know, I fully intended to post this like earlier in January, but ... ...at least I'm still posting it this early in the year! 2023 was a great reading year for me, and I'm definitely still planning to post my yearly stats (hopefully soon). But I wanted to share my favorite books for the second half of the year (July through December). (I did post this for the first half of the year a while back too.) July: The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern August: The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien September: Good Omens by Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett October: Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner November: Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng December: Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune And my favorite for the year overall was, without a shadow of a doubt, The Return of the King. This was my first read through the last two books in the Lord of the Rings and it was nothing short of magical. I sobbed my eyes out when it ended. In fact, this one got 10's across the board for me and was the only book to do so this past year. If you haven't already read this series, I can't recommend it enough! . . [Image Description: Five books are stacked on a wooden end table. On top of the stack, a paperback copy of The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien stands. End of image description.] . .

Alix Chamberlain is a woman who gets what she wants and has made a living, with her confidence-driven brand, showing other women how to do the same. So she is shocked when her babysitter, Emira Tucker, is confronted while watching the Chamberlains' toddler one night, walking the aisles of their local high-end supermarket. The store's security guard, seeing a young black woman out late with a white child, accuses Emira of kidnapping two-year-old Briar. A small crowd gathers, a bystander films everything, and Emira is furious and humiliated. Alix resolves to make things right. But Emira herself is aimless, broke, and wary of Alix's desire to help. At 25, she is about to lose her health insurance and has no idea what to do with her life. When the video of Emira unearths someone from Alix's past, both women find themselves on a crash course that will upend everything they think they know about themselves, and each other.

So very happy that my favourite book of 2023 has made the @dublinlitaward longlist - and that it was @norfolklibraries that nominated it! Now to keep my fingers crossed that An Astronomer in Love by @antoinelaurainofficiel_writer (tr. Lalaurie & Jones) makes the next stage, or even goes on to win! #bestbookoftheyear #translatedfiction #bookprizes #namethetranslator
✨TOP 01 Books of 2023✨ 🏆NUMBER ONE Fourth Wing Surprising no one, my favorite book of the year was fourth wing! I’ve already posted about this one saying I absolutely adored it, and about the sequel iron flame and how happy I am to be part of this phenomenon. Everything is better in fantasy. Romance, larger than life characters, insane life or death stakes, everything about the genre grabs my attention and won’t let go. This book was the pinnacle of everything I love about the romantasy genre. I think about these guys and their dragons daily, the way I wonder about a close friend. Creating a world that people go crazy over is a true talent. I rang in the new year with a glass of bubbly, my hot tub, and Fourth Wing playing in my ears (technically I paused it to talk to the hubby, but still). Now I just have to read Crescent City before it’s completely spoiled for me. Was your favorite book of the year in your preferred genre or did it surprise you? #favoritebookoftheyear #bestbookof2023 #bestbookoftheyear #romantasy #fourthwing #xadenriorson #violetsorengail #basgiathwarcollege #fantasyreader #booksparks

The Vaster Wilds definitely hits the Top 5 of my 2023 reading list! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “In the tall black wall of the palisade, through a slit too seeming thin for human passage, the girl climbed into the great and terrible wilderness.” Obscurely set during Colonial times, a servant girl escapes into the night. Told through views both present and past we follow her on a captivating, treacherous, and harrowing journey of pure grit and survival. I felt myself drawn back to the chapters of this book, worried and wondering about her and how she would come out of this and what would happen next. From crossing rivers to finding food and warmth…dang. ❓❓Do you watch any survivalist shows on television? 🏷️🏷️🏷️ #thevasterwilds #favoritebooks #bestbookoftheyear #bestof2023 #botm #botmclub #mustread #mustreads #mustreadbooks #mustreadbook #bookworm #bookwormproblems #bookwormlife #readerforlife #readerforever #authorlife #amreading #literaryfiction #literaryfictionbooks

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Wow, I couldn’t put this book down! I absolutely loved it 🤩 This is the first book I have read from this author and what I discovered was a fabulous read, gripping storyline and great characters. The main character Cassie works as a mortuary assistant and treats the dead bodies with the care and respect as if they were still alive. She seems to have a spiritual connection with the people that she handles - it’s a fleeting moment but usually plausible and makes her seem authentic in her actions (and hopefully will be used in future novels). When one of the bodies is someone close to Cassie she becomes convinced that this death is suspicious. With a police investigation and the introduction of DS Flyte the story is full of twists and turns that have you gripped til the very last page. This is the first book in a series of three so far, and it is simply excellent! I was hooked from beginning to end, it’s well written with great characters, thoroughly enjoyed it I just couldn’t put it down. I would highly recommend! I can’t wait to read book 2 “Life Sentence”. @akturnerauthor is definitely my favourite new author. #crimethriller #favouriteauthor #bookseries #akturnerauthor #akturner #bestbookoftheyear #borrowbox #audiobooks #bookreview #bookrecommendation #5stars #characterdevelopment #bestseller #thrillerbookaddict #mustread #favouriteauthorsofinstagram #librarybooks #wrexhamlibraries #wowwowwow #grippingstoryline
Interesting Facts About Space ~ Emily Austin “‘Don’t diminish the parts of your childhood that were difficult because they were comparatively better than others.’” Welp, I’ve found my first favorite book of 2024. You all know I’m a sucker for a neurodivergent character (for obvious reasons), but a hilarious, quirky, and queer neurodivergent character that doesn’t even know she’s neurodivergent?! Sign me up. Take my money, take my soul, take whatever you want. I loved the endless space (and sometimes bugs) facts, the dark and twisties, the real and imagined. I loved it all. I’m generally not one for annotating, but I found myself needing a pen anytime I picked up this book, because I just found so much of it to be relatable and noteworthy. This is the kind of book that when you finish it, you’re left confused about the fact that the characters aren’t real people you’ll keep seeing everyday. Needless to say, I’ve already requested her other book from my library. P.S. I wanted to put a quote about her parasite, but didn’t want to scare anyone away from the book. So I chose a more universally relatable quote. P.P.S. I forsook all the other books I was in the middle of reading to fully devote myself to this masterpiece. It’s that good. ✨Have you had any five star reads yet for this year?

This afternoon I basked in the glow of this book. I found myself in the most magical oasis that is @dev.brous ‘s home and backyard and also an hour alone to sit with Rabbi @sharonbrous ‘s #theameneffect and just reflect on what this book and @weareikar and this chosen family and community has come to mean to me not only since my mom died but also since @valariekaur introduced me to Ikar and Rabbi Brous 3 years ago. So many feelings and immense gratitude for the way my heart, mind and world has opened up and all that has come into my life due to my own grief. Without my own grief, I don’t know if I would have joined @weareikar and become so close this 17 months with people I now love and consider mischpocha. Thank you again and again to @avery_books for sharing the review copy last spring and this exquisite finished copy. Thank you Rabbi @sharonbrous for trusting me with your questions and letting me share in grief and joy with you. #rabbisharonbrous #sharonbrous #ameneffect #atpinfluencers #atpinfluencer #averybooks #weareikar #ikarlosangeles #bestbookoftheyear #bestbookof2024 #booksof2024 #bookstagram #jesicareviewsjewish #jesicareviewsnonfiction

Holaa feliz viernes. Inaugurando la foto de este nuevo año 2024 con mi libro favorito del año pasado que no pudo ser otro que Alas de Sangre. Sin duda el año pasado tuve unas muy buenas lecturas y no fueron cinco ni diez fueron como catorce 😁😁 sin contar los audiolibros y algunas joyas que olvide poner pero bueno. Lo que me hizo sentir este libro fue de otro nivel, hace mucho un libro no estaba tanto tiempo en mi cabeza después de leerlo. La trama, los personajes, los dragones, el romance, plot twists fascinantes, Xaden, Violet, Tairn, Andarna todos ellos se llevaron mi corazón. Bueno este fue mi mejor libro del año 2023. ¿Cuál fue su libro favorito del 2023? #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bestbookoftheyear #bookstamx #bookfluenceer #alasdesangre #fourthwing #violetsorrengail #xadenriorson

★ WITAJ NOWY ROKU! Witajcie nowe książki, nowe światy, nowe miłości, nowe nienawiści. Nowy rok, nowe rzeczy, starzy my, więc pogadajmy na razie o zeszłym roku. Dziś chciałam zacząć od książki nr. 1 roku 2023. Jest to rzecz jasna "Dom ziemi i krwi", dokładniej część druga. Cała seria Księżycowa jest numer jeden zeszłego roku, ale to w tej części było wszystkiego najwięcej i wszystko było najmocniej.

2023 was the year that I read the most in the past 8yrs🤩 I found some new authors & continued to enjoy more of my favorites🥰 #bestbookoftheyear #favoritebooks #topbooks #booknerdforlife #2023bookbracket #booksaremyfavorite #booksaremyfavoritehobby
This bracket was SO hard to narrow down! And to think of all of the books not represented there is CRAZY! The runner-ups may lay out differently if this weren’t a bracket, but I’m very confident that Firekeeper’s Daughter would still have come out on top! 🔥Firekeeper’s Daughter🔥 by Angeline Boulley 5⭐️ I started this book because my friend experienced a severe book hangover thanks to it. She was seeking other books with similar themes and she couldn't stop raving about it. I didn't know much about it, so when it started out as an own voices hockey book, I was SO EXCITED!!! "Own Voices Hockey Book." What a joke. That is, in fact, a correct descriptor for this book, but it's so much more than that. It's a book about learning your power, and the power of your people. Finding your community and living your truth. Protecting the people you care about, even when they don't want to protect you or themselves. There are some heavy themes in this book. Death, and how to survive your grief. Sexual assault. The delicate and toxic relationship between the US government and Native American tribes. The violence and disregard that Native women face at an exponentially higher rate than other people in this country. Daunis says it in the book, "I am so tired. The weight of my expendability is crushing." And then, we have the mystery. Daunis uses all of the knowledge and wisdom that she has collected, to puzzle out who is targeting her community. Meth has taken over some of the people in her tribe, and she works to find out who brought the bad medicine in. There's another quote in the book, "It wasn't just generational trauma that got stored in our blood and passed along, but our resilience and language too." And Daunis uses every ounce of resilience that she inherited on her journey.
🏆.Best Book 2023.🏆 La miglior lettura dell'anno appena concluso, per me, è Behind di Monique Scisci, un romanzo intenso e coinvolgente in grado di tenere col fiato sospeso pagina dopo pagina in attesa del lieto fine. Consigliatissimo! #bestbookoftheyear #migliorlibro #migliorlettura #consiglio #consiglidilettura #nivaleggecose
Seven Days in June by Tia Williams was my favourite standalone book of 2023. I read it back in February last year and I knew it would be difficult to beat. I'm not usually a big fan of second chance romances and dual timelines. I normally find the first breakup sort of contrived and unbelievable and the dual timelines in most books really lower the tension for me but not in this one! These two mechanics worked beautifully to tell the story the author wanted. It's about two authors who were together in their youth and reuniting in their adulthood. It has amazing chronic illness representation and it's themes about finding yourself and giving back to your community really resonated with me. It's also deeply romantic and it genuinely feels like the two main characters fit together. If you read romance or are even remotely curious about it, then this is highly recommended! #bookstagram #romancebooks #romancebookrecommendations #bestbookoftheyear #newbookstagram #romancereader
📚Best Book of 2023📚 Φέτος είχα την τύχη να περάσω πολύ όμορφα με τα περισσότερα απ' τα 50+ βιβλία που πέρασαν σε διάφορες μορφές από τα χέρια μου. Από τα περισσότερα κέρδισα κάτι, είτε από το θέμα, είτε από την προσέγγιση, είτε από τη φωνή, είτε από τη γλώσσα, είτε από την ιστορία. Αναμενόμενα, το fantasy και το sci-fi πλειοψήφισαν, μιας και είναι τα αγαπημένα μου είδη, ωστόσο διαβάζω σχεδόν όλα τα είδη, οπότε είχα πολύ ενδιαφέροντα αναγνώσματα και από αλλού. Διάβασα λοιπόν εκπληκτικά fantasy και αξέχαστα sci-fi, όμως θα δώσω τον τίτλο του καλύτερου βιβλίου της χρονιάς στο κοινωνικό και δυστοπικό "Εθνικός Ύμνος" του Noah Hawley, στην άψογη μετάφραση και επιμέλεια των @diaplasiekdoseis Διαδραματίζεται στις ΗΠΑ, σε ένα εναλλακτικό σήμερα ή σε ένα πολύ πιθανό και τρομακτικό αύριο. Οι περισσότεροι εκ των πρωταγωνιστών είναι έφηβοι. Ξεκινά με μια επιδημία αυτοκτονίας που εξαπλώνεται παγκοσμίως, και από εκεί η σύγχρονη κοινωνία ξεκινά να ξηλώνεται, να διαλύεται και να καίγεται, κυριολεκτικά και μεταφορικά. Βία, κακοποίηση, trafficking, κλιματική αλλαγή, κρίση οπιοειδων, κοινωνικά δίκτυα, συνωμοσιολόγοι και παντός είδους ηλίθιοι, διαφθορά, ναρκωτικά, εμπορευματοποίηση της ψυχικής υγείας, ρατσισμός, μισογυνισμος - αυτος είναι ο κόσμος που κληρονόμησαν οι έφηβοι της ιστορίας και αυτόν καλούνται να διαχειριστούν και να αλλαξουν. Ψυχικό ατσάλωμα απαιτεί από τον αναγνώστη, γιατί είναι δύσκολο ψυχολογικά και τα trigger warnings είναι πολλά, και γιατί δεν θα σου χρυσώσει το χάπι: θα στρέψει έναν καθρέφτη στο πρόσωπό σου και θα γκρεμίσει κάθε υποκρισία. Όντας ταυτόχρονα μια κραυγή οργής και ένα φως ελπίδας, ο Εθνικός Ύμνος θα συνοδεύει τις σκέψεις μου για καιρό. Give it a shot! 📚 🥂Καλή χρονιά σε όλους εύχομαι και καλές νέες αναγνώσεις! Ας διαβάζει ο καθένας μας ο,τι τον ευχαριστεί κι ο,τι τον θρέφει!🥂 📚 #bestbookoftheyear #ekdoseisdiaplasi #noahhawley #dystopianbooks #βιβλιοπροτασεις #βιβλία #vivlia #greekbookstagram

Okay, I’m reposting this one as a post BECAUSE (and I don’t tell this story enough), @bookstilbedtime directly inspired the idea behind Don’t Forget to Write. I was in Avalon and my editor had just asked me what was next. And I was like 😵💫 But Ginny had referred to me on IG that morning as “The Marvelous Mrs Confino” (which I joked I was going to put on my classroom door… then I actually did it!) and I couldn’t get that out of my head. I wanted something with @maiseltv vibes and a beach setting and suddenly, the opening scene of Don’t Forget to Write appeared before me like a vision. So Ginny, thank you—both for being the muse behind this one AND for loving it like I do! ❤️❤️❤️ Repost from @bookstilbedtime • I have decided! ❓What was your favorite book in 2023?

My favourite book of 2023 goes toooooooo…… a little life. This book caused me physical pain it was so incredibly written. I’ve always shied away from big books but honestly this year has taught me that the bigger the book the more time you get with the characters and it really makes a difference on how much empathy and sympathy you have for and with the characters. If you haven’t read this I highly highly recommend you do, it’s heart breaking, shocking and full of feeling, I’m so sad I missed the stage version! #alittlelife #bestbookoftheyear #bigbooks
