Here is a list of YA books that will have you begging for more!

2018 TOP TEN FAVORITE READS


Happy New Year's Eve! It's hard to believe it's the last day of 2018. I feel like I just wrote our 2017 Top Ten Favorites lists. This year has flown by. As I'm writing this post I feel like I ran out of time to read more books, write more reviews, and post more bookish features. While I wasn't as active here on the blog, I have posted a lot more bookish features over on Instagram. Check us out here.

We always love comparing our lists after we make them. We love seeing which books we collectively have on our lists. This year we only had 4 books that were on at least two of our lists. The Cruel PrinceObsidio, as well as Ghosts of the Shadowmarket and Leah On The Offbeat.

BOOK REVIEW: LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE

LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE BY CELESTE NG Penguin Books September 2017 352 pages BOOK SYNOPSIS: In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is planned – from the layout of the winding roads, to the colors of the houses, to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead.
