1. ONE PLUS ONE by Jojo Moyes -- Moyes wrote one of my favorite books of all time (ME BEFORE YOU) and I didn't think she could ever top it. This one didn't exactly top it, but it came pretty damn close.
2. DANGEROUS BOYS by Abigail Haas -- Haas' last book, DANGEROUS GIRLS, was one of my favorite reads last year (if you haven't read it yet, do yourself a huge favor). The author herself sent me an ARC of this book and when she offered to email it to me, I freaked out like I'd won the lottery. It did not disappoint.
3. POINTE by Brandy Colbert -- Hands down the best YA contemp I read this year. Beautiful writing and characters that stuck with me.
4. BIRD BOX by Josh Malerman -- I read this on Halloween and scared the hell out of myself. A great horror story. Don't read before bed. Or in the dark. Or alone.
5. ISLA AND THE HAPPILY EVER AFTER by Stephanie Perkins -- A lovely end to a lovely trilogy. I think this one was my favorite of the three.
6. WRITTEN IN MY OWN HEART'S BLOOD by Diana Gabaldon -- It's no secret that I'm a diehard Outlander fan. This is book freaking EIGHT and the story and characters are still as addictive as ever.
7. BREAKABLE by Tammara Webber -- EASY is my favorite New Adult book and I wasn't sure how Breakable would compare. I shouldn't have wondered. This one is just as good, if not better.
8. CITY OF HEAVENLY FIRE by Cassandra Clare -- I've read so many disappointing ends to series', but this one got it right.
9. MR. MERCEDES by Stephen King -- I think I'm one of the few who likes King's new stuff better than his old. *ducks and runs* I get lost in his books--the storytelling is just that good.
10. BIG LITTLE LIES by Liane Moriarty -- I love Moriarty's books and will read anything she puts out.
