Top Ten Books I Read in 2012

 
toptentuesday

Each week, The Broke and Bookish host a Top Ten Tuesday based on a certain bookish topic. Other bloggers are able to participate and post their own top ten list based on the topic.

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is Top Ten Books I Read in 2012.

Geez, this is a hard one! I’ve read and loved so many books in 2012 that it’s simply impossible for me just to choose ten, but I’ll try my best.

So here’s my gorgeous list:

       

1. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
I absolutely adore Anna and the French Kiss. Anna’s voice is so refreshing and Etienne was so damn cute. Anna and the French Kiss makes me want to go to Paris and sang an Etienne of my own.

2. Going Too Far by Jennifer Echols
Going Too Far was a wild, crazy, ride and I loved every minute of it. I need to re-read it and do a real review of it when I get the chance.

3. The Raven Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt
Like oh my goodness. I love, love, love Anna in The Raven Prince. She’s fearless, funny, and smart, and totally brought down Edward’s guard – all I could do was watch and swoon.

       

4. The Clearing by Heather Davis
The Clearing is a sad bittersweet story that had me tearing up multiple times, especially at the end. (Why couldn’t they find a way to be together?) Every time I think of the book, I just think why must fate be so cruel?

5. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
This book is epic enough without me needing to say anything. Enough said.

6. Everneath by Brodi Ashton
I love the way Everneath was written with flashbacks and the present. I felt for Nikki and I especially adore Jack for what he did in the end.

       

7. Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles
Want to read a book about a gang, the perfect student, and revenge mixed together? Perfect, because Perfect Chemistry is the right book for you.

8. Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
Stephanie Perkins, the author who wrote Anna and the French Kiss, also wrote Lola and the Boy Next Door. We get to see tons of Anna and Etienne (-drools-) and get to meet Lola, a girl with quirks of her own.

9. My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick
I absolutely love My Life Next Door. It was the one book who asked me an earth-shattering question, and six long months later, I still don’t have my answer.

10. Unraveling by Elizabeth Norris
Oh my goodness. Unraveling is full of suspense, mystery, and romance. What’s not to like? Oh, and did I mention that Unraveling also has a countdown until the end of the world?

    Anna and Lola are the only ones I’ve read so far off your list! I loved them both! I have several of the others, looks like they need bumped up the pile!

    Great list! I hope to read Everneath and Unraveling before next year, but I don’t think it’s going to happen :(

    Oh I have Unraveling on my list too! That was a great book, I can’t wait for the next one. I tried to listen to Anna and the French Kiss, but it wasn’t working for me :( Need to read Everneath and JOhn Green, I’m so behind!

    Nice! I just read Anna and the French Kiss last month and it was so awesome! I like Going Too Far as well, I love all of Jennifer Echols’ books.

    Once again, I’m feeling left out, I haven’t read the Fault in our Stars. I will start on that soon, I promise!

    I totally should have put Unravelling on my list! I’m kicking myself for not doing so. >.< I adored it! Along with Anna, because that book was AMAZING. Awesome list :) Books of Amber
