Top Books of 2013

This list was so hard to put in a numerical order! I read quite a few really good books this year. This is my top 11! Click the title to go to my review and check out my Goodreads to see everything else I read this year!

11.

Another Little Piece by Kate Karyus Quinn

Rated 4 stars: This is a young adult Horror/paranormal book. The first line of the synopsis is what grabbed my attention though. “The spine-tingling horror of Stephen King meets an eerie mystery worthy of Sara Shepard's Pretty Little Liars series in Kate Karyus Quinn's haunting debut.”

10.

If You Find Me by Emily Murdoch

Rated 4 stars: This is an absolutely beautiful but heart breaking book. I really still can’t find the right words to describe this.

9.

Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Life by Bryan Lee O’Malley

Rated 5 stars: Scott Pilgrim is one of the only Manga’s I have (and probably will) ever read. I read the full color collector’s edition that I rented from the library and I totally think that is one reason why I enjoyed this so much. (I also read the next two). I’m not sure I would have liked it quite as much without the color. Definitely a fun book!

Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire

Rated 4 stars: This is one of only 2 new adult books that I have read. The relationship between the two characters is pretty messed up but it makes for a great read. I read this is 1 day.

7.

Speechless by Hannah Harrington

Rated 5 stars: I was able to read this one for review but ended up buying my own copy. If you like contemporaries with realistic fiction then this is a book you should read. I could see myself rereading this book.

6.

Friends with Boys by Faith Erin Hicks

Rated 5 stars: Graphic Novel! Really good. I loved Lucy’s brother! (He’s one of my bookish crushes!)

5.

Anya’s Ghost by Vera Brosgol

Rated 5 stars: I borrowed this from the library and liked it so much that I went out and bought my own copy.

4.

Mila 2.0 by Debra Driza

Rated 4.5 stars: I really liked this book though. I flew through it and I am super excited to read the next book. I just read this too so it is still very fresh in my mind.

(I'll link my review when I get it written)

Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry

Rated 5 stars: I had heard so many good things about this book but never picked it up until I was granted the galley of Dare you To (the second book). I rented this one from the library and was so glad that I did. Even if none of the companion novels sound good to you, you should still read this one.

2.

Shadowlands by Kate Brian

Rated 5 stars: This was one of the first books I read in 2014 and I read it in a little over a day. It was a great way to start the New Year. I own the second book and haven’t gotten to it yet. It will definitely be read soon though.

and drum roll please....

Hushed by Kelley York

Rated 5 stars: I was fortunate enough to get this book for review from NetGalley and I absolutely devoured it. It is one of the only New Adult Thrillers that I have been able to find (when I was younger I only read Adult Romantic Suspense books). This was right up my alley. I highly highly recommend this!
