That’s so funny because there were several on your list that just missed on mine. I guess it means we both had an outstanding reading year! Let’s hope it flows over into the new decade.

Oh, yay! I’m so glad you loved The Falconer. It got so little attention.

I also read and loved The Falconer on your recommendation, and that made my top ten.

Let’s hope the trend continues into the new year, new decade!

I hope you like it! There is the big shock at the beginning, but it’s what follows that I think is so wonderfully done. I hope you’re having a fabulous vacation!

Excited to read more of the ones on your list this year.

I read two of these The River which I liked and Normal People which was so-so for me. But I’d like to get to more of these books you list. They’re on my TBR.

It was an under the radar kind of book wasn’t it? It was the very first book I read in 2019 and I thought, ‘If this is how the year is going to go, I’m going to be really happy.” And it did!

Have a wonderful holiday and yes, here’s to more fabulous reading!

I don’t read a ton of nonfiction so maybe this happens more often than I think: this book has a twist that made me jump and then burst into tears. I reread the section 3 times because I couldn’t believe it. Really powerful.
