*Top Ten Tuesday Presents* Top Ten Books I've Read So Far This Year 2014

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week there is a new topic and we all share our thoughts on that topic! I decided it was finally time to jump on board with this wicked fun meme!

So, as of this post, I've read 175 books, and picked out 10 of the recent best.
I could have gone overboard, but I shall save them for next time!

8. The Truth About Alice by Jennifer Mathieu

  1. Holy cow!! 175 books?! That's AMAZING! I'm thoroughly impressed haha. I've actually only read one book on this list (Truth About Alice, which also made mine), but Grave Mercy has been at the top of my TBR FOREVER. I need to just go find a copy!

    1. Yep! I was actually trying to restrain myself this year, but that obviously isn't happening! I can't wait to finish the His Assassin series. Love the concept, and the characters. Thanks for stopping by, Elizabeth!

    1. Hi Chrissi! I believe that if you have a tendency to like historical fiction, you will enjoy Grace Mercy. It definitely surrounds factual events and characters.

  4. Banishing the Dark was a great finish to the series. I just read Bennett's latest Roaring Twenties novel and it's pretty awesome.

  7. I pretty much want to read all the books on your list that I haven't read! I've been seeing your Night School reviews and I got really excited. I reviewed the first one last year (threw Harper, I think) but then I never heard about more books. I'm glad to hear that she's released them and that they are good!

    1. Night School via the US has a different publisher from the first book. I was lucky in that they offered book # 2 through NetGalley, and the publisher emailed me asking if I wanted the rest of them! Hells yes!

  11. My co-blogger, Anne, has read about the same number of books this year. She can finish 5 before I finish 1. It amazes me =) I have only read one from your list and there are a few I haven't even heard of before. Glad you've gotten your hands on so many great reads so far.
