Top Ten Favourite Books of 2017

Tuesday 12 December 2017



I feel like I haven't read that many books this year. I think it's because I haven't completed my goodreads challenge yet of 50 books but I'm only a few behind and 50 is a big number! It's probably also due to the fact that I've had a lot of reading and blogging slumps this year but I finally have some motivation again and it's good to be back!

These were my favourite reads of 2017:





I finally got around to reading some series that I've meaning to read for a looooong time this year as well as some great standalones so overall I think I had a pretty great reading year. Roll on 2018 and the many new releases (my most anticipated of which will be posted in a few weeks time!).

Do we share any 2017 favourites? Let me know!

  2. Almost everyone so far has Eleanor Oliphant on their list (I particularly like the matchstick cover!). I have a copy of Warcross sitting on my shelf that I haven't read yet - nice to see it in someone's top 10! :)

    1. Eleanor was a big surprise for me this year but I'm glad to see so many others liked it too! Hope you enjoy Warcross as much as I did when you get around to reading it! :)

  3. I was really excited for ONE OF US IS LYING, but I didn't end up loving it. I like that there are some YA mysteries out there. Not many, but some.

    I haven't read any of your other picks, although most of them are on my TBR mountain chain somewhere. I'm glad you enjoyed them.

    Happy TTT!

    1. Aww, that's a shame! I have definitely seen mixed reviews for that one though. I Would love to see some more YA mysteries. Hopefully you'll get to some of my top reads one day! :)

  4. This year I`ve started The Grisha trilogy and completely fell in love with Leigh Bardugo`s writing. I can`t wait to get to the Six of Crows duology.

    1. I read the Grisha trilogy for the first time this year too and also fell in love with Bardugo's writing. I hope you love the Six of Crows books! They're just as good :)

  5. The Hate U Give is one of the books I should have read this year but still haven't. However, I haven't heard a single soul not LOVING it, and I have no doubt that I should read it and enjoy as well. I love the spotlight it's been getting, and all of the themes it touches upon interest me a lot. I shouldn't postpone it anymore! IT IS GETTING DONE! Warcross made it to my list as well!

    1. I definitely recommend you read THUG! I think it's definitely worth the hype it's getting and it's great to see so many people loving it. Glad you loved Warcross too! I can't wait for the sequel.

  6. The Hate You Give is one of those books that I NEED to read. Everyone keeps talking about that book and saying that it's so good. I'm super excited to read it.

  8. They are all books that I have on my TBR 😂🤦🏽‍♀️
    For the most part of the year I read almost nothing, but in the 2 months I have been catching up! Trying to reach 20, which is super low but better than nothing! 😝

  11. Such a lovely list, I really like all your picks! I'm kind of ashamed to say that I have read only two out of all these (Daughter of Smoke and Bone & One of Us is Lying), but all of the others are on my TBR and I can't wait to get to them, especially Crooked Kingdom and THUG.
