1 Play Me Backwards by Adam Selzer All snark and heart.
2 Scarlet & Lady Thief by AC Gaughen This series bleeds awesome. I need Lion Heart now.
3 Illusions of Fate by Kiersten White Made me remember I like Paranormal stories.
4 Where Things Come Back by John Corey Whaley Glorious sense of place. It earned that "P" on the cover.
5 Deathless by Catherynne Valente Beautifully written. I'm still dazzled.
6 The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde Reading Dorian's downfall for the first time was so gorgeous and so grotesque. Perfection.
7 The Half Life of Molly Pierce by Katrina Leno YA Psychological done right.
8 Lothaire by Kresley Cole It's got Lothaire. Potentially the best book in the series?
9 Past The Shallows by Favel Parrett This read like a love letter to the ocean.
10 Exquisite Captive by Heather Demetrios I officially love Jinn and Heather's new series!
Scarlett and Lady Thief have such beautiful covers. I haven't read any of these, thanks for the recommendation. Here is my list!

Oh, wow, Where Things Come Back - I love that book! And I loved Scarlet, too, though I still haven't read Lady Thief. Great list!
ReplyDeleteExquisite Captive sounds amazing! I love Heather's writing style, so I'm sure Exquisite Captive will be great. The Half Life of Molly Pierce also seems really intriguing. I took psychology last year, so it's interesting reading psychological books.
ReplyDeleteI sadly haven't read any of these although I do have Exquisite Captive waiting for me on my kindle. Love genies so I must read it! I also need to read Illusions of Fate. Love Kiersten White.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my Best Books I’ve Read in 2014

I've been hearing such great things about Scarlet and Lady Thief. I started reading Scarlet but I'm considering giving it another try now. Great list!
ReplyDeleteBarbara @ My Bibliophile Mind
Very nice list! I really like some of your choices, like The Half Life of Molly Pierce. There were a few I've never heard of before. ;) Thanks for sharing!

Play Me Backwards and Illusions of Fate are two books I wish I had gotten to read this year! I heard so much about them. Hopefully I'll get to them next year. :)
ReplyDeleteScarlet was such a fantastic read. Cannot wait for the final in the trilogy! I'm also trying to read more classics, and The Picture of Dorian Gray was one of the books that I finished this year - so creepy and twisted but very compelling!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I have yet top read any of these books but most are on my tbr list and others I will check out. Thank you for stopping by! Happy holidays :)
ReplyDeleteThose look like some awesome books! I have wanted to read Illusions of Fate for a long time - I have seen some amazing reviews for it :D
