This year I decided to only read books I wanted to read and boy did I choose well! With over 116 books and nearly all of them brilliant it was extremely difficult to narrow down my Top Ten. I thought it would be better to only choose books that had been published this year (or prior) so that you, the lovely reader, can download these books and read them NOW instead of waiting patiently for up to 4 months.
These are my personal favourites in no particular order. I’d love to hear your thoughts and if you enjoyed them as much as me.
