For me, there's nothing quite like snuggling up with a good book under a comfy blanket, a nice scented candle burning and a cup of South African Rooibos tea. These are the books that I enjoyed the most this year:
- If you have to cry, go outside by Kelly Cutrone
- A Stolen Life by Jaycee Dugard
- The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin
- Summer in the City by Candace Bushnell
- The Year of Living Biblically by A.J. Jacobs
- The Carrie Diaries by Candace Bushnell
- The Know-It-All by A.J. Jacobs
- Unbearable Lightness by Portia de Rossi
- Committed by Elizabeth Gilbert
What was your favorite book(s) this year? I need some suggestions for next year!
this year i did not have access to anything by anyone new but i am so enjoying Shimmer Chinodya's harvest of thorns. i blogged a excerpt of it a couple of weeks ago and i am ashamed to say i am only slightly past half way. something i blame on work and personal life.
ReplyDeletethe books simplistic turn of phrase makes it quite a literary marvel.
Have you read the Stieg Larson books? They are amazing!! And the Wicked series too!
ReplyDeleteI loved the book committed! Great choices!
ReplyDelete@Kelsey No, I haven't read Stieg Larsson's books, but maybe I should put that on my list for next year! Thanks for the suggestion :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm adding almost all of these to my "to read" list! '
