@cynthia oooh! I still need to read that.
My favourite was The Secret History
Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez! :)
Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez! Honorable mentions to The Nightingale and Half a Soul!
A Psalm for the Wild-Built was probably my favorite!!
A Court of Mist and Furt by Sarah J Maas
Fishing for the Little Pike by Juhani Karila
Dead withinterruptions by José Saramago or The murder of Roger Ackroyd by Ágatha Christie, can't decide!
The book that I think about often after finishing it is Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt♥️
Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfield. Unfortunately it suffers from having a misleading title so a lot of people don't like it but if you can read it without the expectations set by the title, it's great.
Scythe and Remarkably Bright Creatures are both excellent recommendations! I’d add A Fate Inked in Blood to that.
I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy!
Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson was so beautiful. I loooved Destroy the Day by Brigid Kemmerer (third book of an awesome trilogy). I also discovered Ali Hazelwood this year (picked up my third one today!) and honestly, I think about Bride a lot. More than I should😂
I really enjoyed the Once Upon a Broken Heart trilogy ♥️!!
I'm gonna go with The Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai, although Shuggie Bain and Cleanness are up there, too!
The school for good and evil
I who have never known men, still think about it almost every day!
Demon Copperhead! 🫶🏻 and the Tawny Man Trilogy
Phantasma was such a fun read! Loved it 🫶🏻
It's a coinflip between Remarkably Bright Creatures and Project Hail Mary. Such a good year for reading :)
Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors and Bandit Queens by Parini Shroff
Based on the bracket method, my favorite book of 2024 was A Time of Dread by John Gwynne. Happy New Year!
The night circus followed closely by divine rivals
I loved the spy school goes north by stuart gibbs
I think that my favourite book of the year is Girl, Woman, Other by Bernadine Evaristo, yours?
River Enchanted and The Midnight Library ♥
I actually enjoy a feed spam because I get all these book recs without even having to do research! My favourite book of the year was probably a greek crime/mystery/romance novel (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...) which conveniently was my last read of the year! Loved getting to read more of this genre this year along with my usual reads...
The first two parts of the Dark Rise trilogy by C.S. Pacat!!
Rurouni Kenshin - so much fun with a little of everything: sword fighting, romance, history, interesting villains, conflicted hero. A perfect manga!
A by the Swedish author Ann-Helén Laestadius called Straff. It’s her second book in her Sapmi series (stand alones) The first one is available in English and is called Stöld (Stolen in the English version)

I think my favourite has to be Lovely War by Julie Berry
Piranesi by Susanna Clarke and The Fury by Alex Michaelides
