#top10of2017

[leanne-stephanie-blog]

So I wanted to highlight some of my favorite books of 2017! I definitely won’t be able to showcase them all, but never fear my best of and worst of 2017 will be up on my YouTube channel next week! - First up, Eliza and her Monsters by Francesca Zappia! Now if you know me, you know that not often do I pick up a contemporary and thoroughly enjoy it. Not only that, even when I do enjoy a contemporary it doesn’t often make it into my top 10, but this little gem focused on mental health, loss, grief, and love so perfectly that I still think about it today. Certain descriptions Eliza used to explain how she felt in an anxious situation, or how Wallace expresses his grief... gah, it’s still emotional and I related more than I care to admit sometimes. Also, something I appreciated was Zappia’s clear knowledge and understanding of fandoms and the internet generally. It was refreshing. As I said when I first reviewed this book, do yourself a favor and read this beautiful diamond in the rough! #stephanieleannebookishreview #stephanieleannebookishtop10of2017 . . . . . #elizaandhermonsters #mentalhealth #anxiety #readthisbook #bookpusher #bibliophile #bibliophilelife #booktube #bookstagram #top10of2017 #newyearseve #2018 #books #book #bookish #bookreviews #bookinaround

Another #topread for me this year was Words in Deep Blue by @cathcrowleybooks. The characters’ connections to words and books really stuck a chord in me. I loved the way they wrote notes in books to pass down history and to finally discover that no one is alone in what they are feeling and experiencing. 📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘 Words in Deep Blue - http://amzn.to/2EaV1pl. 📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘📘 #yalit #yareads #youngadultnovel #youngadultcontemporary #wordsindeepblue #cathcrowley #top10of2017 (at Tyler, Texas)

2017 is finally over, and while, like a lot of people, I’d like to give it a swift kick in the ass on it’s way out, it was still a good reading year for me. I read approximately 80 books this year and while I can’t say I didn’t like any of them I definitely have my favourites so this list is comprised of my top 10 books I read in 2017. They’re not all new releases so ones that are will be marked with an asterisks.

1) THE YOUNG ELITES by MARIE LU

The Young Elites is, as a series, one of my absolute favourites, but the first book is the best overall in my opinion. I love Adelina so much, and I think seeing her as she is before meeting the rest of the Young Elites is an important part of her journey.

2) RENEGADES by MARISSA MEYER*

This is the second to last book I read last year, and it really ended 2017 with a bang. I adored everything about Renegades from the characters to the plot to the dynamics to the writing, and I recommend it to everyone that likes superheroes or just good books.

3) RUNEBINDER by ALEX R. KAHLER*

I knew i was going to love this book. Fantasy + dystopia + an LGBT main character is a recipe for success in my mind, but Runebinder blew all my expectations out of the water. It was fun but still serious and the characters were all fantastic.

4) THREE DARK CROWNS by KENDARE BLAKE

I’ve read both books that are out as of now and while I loved both, I did prefer the first one for a multitude of reasons. The whole series is interesting, however. I love that the books are fairly politics heavy, a lot of YA fantasy isn’t, and it’s one of the things I miss the most when I read YA.

5) A DARKER SHADE OF MAGIC by V.E. SCHWAB

This is one of two Schwab books on this list because i love her books, but A Darker Shade of Magic is definitely my favourite so far. I haven’t read the rest of the books in the series, but I’m super excited to pick them up because I adored everything about this book.

6) KING’S CAGE by VICTORIA AVEYARD*

I fell out of reading for a while, and Red Queen was one of the books that brought me back, so this whole series means a lot to me, and King’s Cage is no exception. I loved all the emotionally charged scenes in this book, even if my heart got broken a few times, and I really enjoyed getting Evangeline’s point of veiw.

7) LORD OF SHADOWS by CASSANDRA CLARE*

This book broke my heart in sixteen different places and I still haven’t figured out how to put it back together. I’ve grown so attached to the characters in this series that I’m absolutely positive that the next book will make my 2018 list.

8) LINGER by MAGGIE STIEFVATER

I read the entirety of this series this year (aside from the last 20 pages of book three but shh) but Linger was by far my favourite. The introduction of Cole, who has made my list of favourite characters ever, really made this book special to me and I loved the atmosphere of the whole series so much.

9) FOREST OF A THOUSAND LANTERNS by JULIE C. DAO*

I! Loved! This! Book! I was so extremely excited to read it and I was not at all let down. Everything about this book was fantastic, from the characters to the plot to the writing itself, I don’t have one single complaint to lodge and I think I may die before book two comes out.

10) THIS SAVAGE SONG by VICTORIA SCHWAB

The second Schwab book on this list is also the first one I ever read. It’s because of this book that I picked up A Darker Shade of Magic, because I loved the writing style and complexity put into This Savage Song. The characters in this book will remain in my heart forever.

Time for more #top10of2017. The next book on the list 📚 is Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca. Having been involved in online fandoms, this book really spoke to me. This is one of those books that you just can’t put down and when you’re done, you want to immediately start reading again. I wasn’t ready to leave the comfort of the world that had been created. It’s the type of book for which fan fiction was created.. 📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗 Eliza and Her Monsters by @chessiezappia - http://amzn.to/2ElFtzg 📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗📘📗 #yalit #yareads #youngadultbooks #yareader #elizaandhermonsters #francescazappia
