The last book I read this year...# 47 was "A Man Called Ove" by Fredrik Backman. It is a book I heard a lot about so finally got around to reading it. I liked it and thought it was a super sweet book.
Looking back on the books I read this year...my favorite book hands down...
"11/22/63" by Stephen King. It was fantastic, has every element of a book that I love in it, and I didn't want the book to end! I think everyone should read it! Just so good! (I did watch a few episodes of the show they made with same title but it is so different from the book that I couldn't finish watching it...the book is so much better of course!)
My next top two picks for the year would be:
I love spy genre books and the Vince Flynn book series was great that I read earlier in the year as well as the Daniel Silva books that I have been reading lately too...but I really enjoyed his newest novel "The Black Widow." I think it was the best spy book of the year for me out of all of them but so many close seconds. And in my latest post about books I talk about how "Homegoing" is definitely one of my top 3 books for the year and is high on the list for all time. Loved it.
I feel like I read a lot of suspense genre books this year and "Behind Closed Doors" sticks out the most in my head for the best of the bunch with a unique premise. I also really enjoyed "Mr. Mercedes" and "Finders Keepers" both by Stephen King. I thought they were excellent books (didn't love the third one in the series.)
There were a lot of great books this year and I cannot wait to keep reading in 2017...maybe I will hit 50 books for the year!
