The Top Ten of 2014 event is hosted by Jaime from Two Chicks on Books, Rachel from Reading YA Rocks, and Mindy from Magical Urban Fantasy Reads!
Today, I'm sharing my top ten best books I've read in 2014!
(In no particular order, except for the last one)
(Also, the pictures link to my reviews)
(Also, keep in mind that I have three more books to read in 2014)
(Also, as always, this was HARD. So, no offense to the books that didn't make the cut)
My top three...
(Again, no particular order.)
(I didn't even consider ADULT books, y'all.)
The Falconer is in my list of Top 10 debuts on Wednesday and Mortal Hearts is in my extras mention of my Top 10 too! Too many great books, it's so hard to pick!!
ReplyDeleteYeah! It was super difficult D:
DeleteThe Falconer also made my list – it's just so good! I also chose a few of JLA's books because I just love everything she writes :) I'm hoping to read Mortal Heart some time in the new year so hopefully I'll love it too. I can't believe you narrowed it down to so few. Great list!
ReplyDeleteYES! JLA is probably on everyone's list - at least one book.
DeleteIt's called the "Top Ten", right? So it should be ten...
Fantastic list! I still need to read Mortal Heart and the Falconer.
ReplyDeleteYOU TOTALLY SHOULD!!
DeleteThe Falconer and Lark Rising are in my TBR! So glad they're in your top ten list! I might have to bump them up!!
ReplyDeleteEileen @ BookCatPin
OMG you must at least read Lark Rising! But yeah, fantasy dominated my list. Fantasy and contemporary...
DeleteYou have been tagged for our quirky, awesome awkward bookish experiences:) Check here for more info:http://mylittlecornerforbooks.blogspot.com/2014/12/its-happy-happy-celebration.html#more
ReplyDeleteI'll check it out!
DeleteI really want to read Midnight Thief! It sounds great :) I also tend to like anything Lauren Barnholdt writes, so I'm sure I'll love Through To You. Awesome list!
ReplyDeleteThrough To You spoke to me, Montana. My personal life was very similar to Harper's, at the time. I've re-read the book so many times, and the book still resonates! I hope you love it!
DeleteThe only one I have read and also included was To All The Boys I've Loved Before. Really want to read Don't Look Back. I've heard great things about Midnight Thief and Sea of Shadows.
ReplyDeleteBest Books I’ve Read in 2014
I hope you enjoy Don't Look Back! It was an interesting psychological thriller. I love fantasy - Midnight Thief and Sea of Shadows were excellent!
DeleteLove your picks! Thanks so much for taking part in the Top 10 of 2014! Looking forward to seeing the rest of your Top 10’s :D
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Jaime @ Two Chicks On Books
Thank YOU!
DeleteI've yet to read Mortal Heart but I enjoyed a lot Grave Mercy and Dark Triumph. Hopefully I'll get to it soon!
ReplyDeleteGreat list btw, lots of books I want to read!
Melissa @ The Reader and the Chef
You definitely should read it!
DeleteOMG ALYSSA LOVE THE BOOKS!!!!! While I have not yet read some, they've been sitting in my TBR for ages now haha. I've always wanted to read Kiss of Deception and Grave Mercy! Awesome list. Maybe I should participate in this too :) x
ReplyDeleteJillian @ Jillian's Books
YAY! I hope you get them off that TBR list! And definitely sign up to participate, Jillian!
DeleteAWESOME picks, Alyssa! I loved THE KISS OF DECEPTION, MIDNIGHT THIEF & LARK RISING so much!!! I'm glad to see you enjoyed them as much as I did!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Top Ten:

Yeah!
DeleteGlad to see Through to You on your list, sad to see how many bad reviews it got.
ReplyDeleteWOW! I had no idea. That book and I got along really well :)
DeleteAw, yay :D Awesome post sweetie. <3 And so many awesome books. Sigh. The Falconer! SO GOOD. I hope you will read a bunch of amazing books in 2015 too :D Thank you for sharing Alyssa. <3
ReplyDeleteYES! There were lots of good ones this year - I had the hardest time choosing. Thank YOU, Carina!
DeleteWow, I would not have guessed those to be your top three! Looks like I need to take a closer look at Through to You - I had sort of dismissed it. Love Mortal Heart, Don't Look Back, and The Perilous Sea. Excited to read The Falconer - fingers crossed no love triangle in the second book!
ReplyDeleteRight?! Me either! Two contemporary, like what? I LOVED Through To You - maybe because it so closely paralleled my love life, at the time (though my love life situation has changed since then, and I STILL love the book).
DeleteHope you love The Falconer! And Through To You, if you read it.
I've only read three of your ten, and I loved Perilous Sea a lot, Mortal Heart was amazing too! I have a few of these, but not all of them, so I will try to read those.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I started reading The Winter King last night :)
OMG I KIND OF JUST SKIPPED MOST OF YOUR COMMENT BECAUSE OMG YOU ARE READING THE WINTER KING!! I want to reread it nowwww, ahhh! Do let me know how it goes for you! *flails*
