Top Ten Tuesday: Best Books I Read In 2018


Happy Tuesday everyone!  Welcome to the Top Ten Tuesday now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.  This week's topic is Best Books I Read In 2018.  I've read a lot of fantastic books in 2018 and it was incredibly difficult narrowing it down to only ten.  Without further ado, here we go in alphabetical order by title (the titles are linked to my review):


Arm of the Sphinx (The Books of Babel #2) by Josiah Bancroft


City of Lies (Poison Wars #1) by Sam Hawke


Crooked Kingdom (Six of Crows #2) by Leigh Bardugo


The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air #2) by Holly Black


Foundryside (Founders #1) by Robert Jackson Bennett


The Hazel Wood (The Hazel Wood #1) by Melissa Albert


The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet (Wayfarers #1) by Becky Chambers


Nothing But Sky by Amy Trueblood


Scream All Night by Derek Milman


Sky in the Deep by Adrienne Young

  3. 2018 was again the year in which I didn't read any of Leigh Bardugo's books. UGH!! Guess 2019 needs to be THE year I remedy this. Happy 2019, Lauren! I look forward to see what your blog has in store for this new year. :)

  13. Crooked Kingdom was not as good as SoC for me, but I still loved it. I think it's because of a certain death that occurred. It really broke my heart.

  14. I liked The Hazel Wood, too. It was talked about a lot early in the year and now it seems that no one but us is talking about it. My 2018 Favs Happy New Year!
