Best Books I’ve Read in 2016
{Hosted by Two Chicks On Books, Fiktshun, Tales of a Ravenous Reader and Dark Faerie Tales}
This top ten was really hard for me to compile because 2016 was one of the best years when it came to reading since I read so many amazing books.
These are ordered by surname of the author but I do have to say An Exaltation of Larks was the #1 best book I've read this year.
You can find the links below either to Goodreads or my review, depending on whether or not I reviewed them on the blog.
Six of Crows | Swear on This Life | Lady Midnight | Shadow of Night | Hunting the Eagles | An Exaltation of Larks | A Court of Mist and Fury | The Maiden Seer | Glitter | And I Darken
Honorable mention:
Voyager by Diana Gabaldon
I don't usually do honorable mentions but I feel like in this case Voyager definitely deserves to be mentioned because this book was amazing.

Let me know in the comments if any of these books are on your top ten of 2016 as well or just tell me some of your favorites of the year. ♥
Lady Midnight = AMAZING! (:
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of the other books you mentioned, but I own And I Darken (need to read it), and I've been meaning to read Six of Crows for a very long time now.
Sounds like you had a great reading in 2016!
I wish you an even better 2017 :D
Yes it is! :D ♥
DeleteOh you should give And I Darken a go, it was SO good! And Six of Crows too.
Thank you!
I haven't read any of the books on your list but it's always fun to see everyone's favourites at the end of the year! I'll be posting mine in a couple of days time.
ReplyDeleteGreat! Looking forward to seeing it!
DeleteI loved Lady Midnight too! Though I still need to finish the Darkness series.
ReplyDeleteLady Midnight was so surprising to me but amazing!
DeleteAhhh Deborah Harkness trilogy is my favourite series of all time. I am so excited you read shadow of night. I really need to read Lady Midnight!
ReplyDeleteMegan @ reading away the days
I loved that book SO much. It was perfect for me. And I plan on reading The Book of Life in 2017. ;)
DeleteI haven't read any of these books actually... but these all sound pretty cool. A lot of them are on my TBR as well, so hopefully they are ones I will be able to get to in 2017.
ReplyDeleteI would (obviously) recommend any of them! :)
DeleteAh! "Six of Crows"! I've heard such amazing things about this one! I need to read it! Great list, Stephanie! And thanks for stopping by my blog earlier!
ReplyDeleteI was hitting myself on the head for not reading that one sooner!
DeleteYaaassss, Six of Crows! I loved that book. I bought Crooked Kingdom and have not read it yet, though I plan on reading it soon. I read spoilers (intentionally) and now I'm sad lololol. I loved And I Darken! Now I Rise is going to be amazing, I'm sure. Fabulous list, Stephanie! =)
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Top Ten post!
I haven't read Crooked Kingdom either... but only because my book got delayed at the post office because of the holidays. Grrrr!
DeleteYes, Six of Crows is so amazing! I have And I Darken on my TBR and I'm in love with the cover of Glitter! Great list!
ReplyDeleteHere's my top ten list (:
You should definitely read And I Darken!!
DeleteI loved Six of Crows. I was sooo happy to be back in the Grishaverse.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read Crooked Kingdom! :D
DeleteAwesome reads you got! I really need to read Six of Crows soon!

DeleteThe only I've read is Six of Crows and I do own a few others. I haven't seen Larks around much, I'll have to check it out. Thank you for the great list.
ReplyDeleteIf I could I would gift Larks to everyone I know! :D
DeleteI loved Swear on This Life, too, Stephanie! Carlino knows exactly how to kick me in the gut...
ReplyDeleteI have some of the others on my TBR shelf :) Great list!!
