Because one post of great books is never enough!
Let’s get warmed up with Dear Fahrenheit 451, which was a reader’s ode to books. Then I Must Betray You proved a powerful historical YA. Easily the best YA contemporary I read was Excuse Me While I Ugly Cry. Taylor Jenkins Reid’s backlist proved to be as brilliant as some of her current books, with One True Loves leaving me smitten. Of course, I have to include the fab fantasy books Book Eaters, Gallant and Ballad of Never After! A really special way to end the year was to pick up the first in the Regency Faerie Tales series- Half a Soul. And last, but certainly not least, Island of the Missing Trees to transport you to historical Cyprus.
And that’s all for now… can’t wait to share more!!

I’ve read One True Loves and I remember really loving it when I read it.

Great list. I absolutely adore Dear Fahrenheit 451. I listened to it on audiobook the first time and it was even better because the narrator did such a good job putting the emotion into each letter. I want a physical copy on my shelves. This is definitely one to revisit. Some of the others on this list are on my TBR.
