Best Read of 2018

This was not a good year for five star books.I think my favorite was probably Ocean Light by Nalini Singh.
But I think I am biased because I just enjoy this series.
I had read and loved Kelley Armstrong before, but I just really got into the UF genre this year, and I had a great reading year. I discovered a lot of new-to-me favorite authors (Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, Kim Harrison, Seanan McGuire) and binge-read a few of the UF "classics". My highlights this year were probably October Daye and The Hollows.
I had a good year a lot of solid 4 star but here are a my 5 star reads.
I am totally missing Kate Daniels. I was so sad for it to end. I will be rereading it soon. I can honestly say I love all things by Illona Andrews.

I had three 5-star reads in 2018:A Study in Honor by Claire O'Dell
European Travel for the Monstrous Gentlewoman by Theodora Goss
Brainstorm: Detective Stories From the World of Neurology by Suzanne O'Sullivan
These are my favorite 5-star books that I read in 2018:
-A joy to read. An orginal Grimm-esque, devious-feeling, possibly high-fantasy fairy tale.
-The second book in a (get this) reverse-harem, space-opera/pirate adventure series that reads more like urban fantasy. Yeah, I love these.
-A space-adventure comic which effectively introduces you to a world while setting up a story to follow. Beautiful and fun.Do you think I used enough descriptive words??
