Top Ten Tuesday - The Best Books I Read in 2024

Welcome back to another Top Ten Tuesday. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by that artsy reader girl since 2018. It was born of a love of lists and to bring bookworms together. We've reached the final Top Ten post of the year, and It's been fun getting to know wonderful book bloggers with way more experience than me. Thank you for always visiting my blog and leaving sweet comments, it means a lot to a new blogger like me. 

A little off-topic, but my brother has a project coming up where he's trying to map out making a cooking/recipe app. For his primary research he's looking for participants to fill out a short survey which would take about 10 minutes. So, if anyone has used SuperCook, Yummly or SideChef before, I would be so grateful if you could fill in my brother's survey.

This week's topic is best books I read in 2024. I've read many amazing books this year, but the ten I've added to this list have been my favorite by far. Links in the titles take you to my review if I've written one for that book

This week's topic: The Best Books I Read in 2024

1. The Prison Healer by Lynette Noni

I can't believe I've just read this trilogy this year, and it's become one of my favorite fantasy series of all time. Honestly, if you haven't read it yet, I'd highly recommend it. 

2. Sorcery Of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson

Sorcery of Thorns is another all-time favorite fantasy for me. With a grumpy sorcerer, sword-wielding librarians, and a demon that turns into a cat, what more can I say to convince you to read it?!

3. Half A Soul by Olivia Atwater

Half a Soul was an amazing cozy fantasy, and one of the first I'd ever read. If anyone's looking for a sweet and whimsical cozy fantasy, then this might be a new favorite for you.

4. The Hawthorne Legacy by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

The Hawthorne Legacy is the second book in the The Inheritance Games series. I loved the series but the second was the one that made me fall in love with it. If you love riddles, uncovering secrets and great plot twists, you should give this series a try!

5. The Day I Died by C.M. Francis

The Day I Died is an inspiring tale of overcoming life's challenges. It is a wonderful coming-of-age story about trauma, recovery, friendship and family. If you need a book that will uplift you, The Day I Died should be on your 2025 TBR.

6. We Free The Stars by Hafsah Faizal

We Free the Stars is the second book in The Sands of Arawiya duology, and if you love epic quests, magic powers, and found family, you will love this book.

7. A Far Wilder Magic by Allison Saft

A Far Wilder Magic is a spectacular combination of themes of love, family, ostracization, sacrifice, and the power of dreaming. If you love atmospheric and gritty reads, this book will leave you obsessed.

8. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

A sweet homage to the power of family and sisterhood. I loved Little Women and having a sister of my own made it more emotional to me. If you haven't picked this book up yet, you should give it a shot. All of the relationships were wonderful in this book too, so if you love romance, you might like this classic.

9. Eva Evergreen-Semi Magical Witch by Julie Abe

A heartwarming tale of  friendship, love, whimsy, magic, and the power of self-belief. If you love middle-grade fantasies you'll love this book. If you love the feel of Ghibli movies, especially Kiki's Delivery Service, then you must give Eva Evergreen Semi-Magical Witch a try!

10. Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery

Anne of Green Gables has become one of the favorite classics ever. Being a dreamer who spends nearly all her time imaging I was immediately drawn to Anne. This was just a sweet tale of friendship, adventure, found family, and imagination. I loved the atmosphere and the nature element in this book, you feel like you're standing with Anne and feeling the wind ruffle your hair.

Once again if you've used SuperCook, Yummly or SideChef before or if you know someone who has used one of these apps before please fill in the survey or share the link with others.
