I hope you have a favorite list too...I am sure you do.
Some really good books on your list!! Thanks for stopping by my blog, Elizabeth. :] I'm a new follower of yours...
Thanks, Deb. Your blog is beautiful with so many wonderful books.
Thanks for following. I am an old follower of your blog.
I've read two of these, and enjoyed them. Later in the year, I hope to list my favorites, once I decide which ones they are!
Thanks for stopping Harvee...which two books have you read?
The only book I read on your list was The Roots of the Olive Tree. looks like I have a lot of reading to do. Thanks!
Let me know which ones you read this upcoming year, Susanbright?
They were all GOOD. :)
Thanks for stopping by.
That's a great list.
I read the "Secret Keeper." Great Book. I posted my Best 2012 books (three of them) early. I think I will save any more reviews for next year. Thanks for stopping by my blog this year. Happy New Year!
Thanks, Michael.
It is that time of year to make our lists of favorites, isn't it? I must do one for my blog, too. It won't be easy to narrow it down. I've read a lot of very good books this year.
Wow, I don't even know what my favorite books of the year were. I'd have to go on my Goodreads home page and recheck reviews!
Thanks for stopping by, Karen.
Elizabeth, your email made me smile. I'm just glad you reviewed my book, since it was out of your genre :)
I haven't read a single one on your list. I love seeing everyone's favorites though.
Thanks for stopping by Carol.
Favorite Lists are fun.
I haven't read any of these, but I do have The Girl on The Cliff on Mt TBR.
Happy Holidays!
I enjoy reading these lists and discovering lots of new reads!
Thanks for including our book, Owning Treasure. We're delighted that you enjoyed it!
Thank you, Elizabeth - I'm very honored that you included CITY OF WOMEN on your list! - David
Glad to see the last three books on your list were favorites, as they are on my to-read list. :)
Nice picks! Haven't read any of these, but will definitely check them out!
Lovely roundup -- I haven't read any of these yet and after reading some of your reviews, I think I've got a few new books to add to my reading list!
Wonderful, Anna.
THANKS for checking out my reviews, Chloe. So nice that my reviews got you interested. They were all SOOOO good.
Enjoy...let me know which ones you are considering, Chloe.
Great picks!
The Secret Keeper is on my pile, otherwise many of these are new to me! Thanks for visiting my blog!
Thanks for stopping by, Marie, You will love The Secret Keeper.
I've read none of these - but some have now been added to my wishlist!
The Secret Keeper sounds interesting.
Thanks for stopping at http://pinkyjustlisten.blogspot.com/
This is sad, I have read none of these - but I do have City Of Women on my list. Did you like it?
Yes, I liked City of Women.
THANKS for stopping.
Elizabeth, Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's okay that you didn't like The Time Traveler's Wife- we all have different perspectives. I'm curious- what didn't you like?
Thanks for sharing your favorites- I haven't heard of any of them and will have to browse your reviews. My favorites from 2012 were The Night Circus and The Fault in Our Stars.
Happy New Year!
Reading a Kate Morton next year is a must, she was on so many lists and not the same book, that is a brilliant author.
Marce.....Start your Kate Morton reading with:
THE FORGOTTEN GARDEN...my first one I read of her. LOVED IT.
I loved the Kate Morton too, just not quite my best one this year
The Secret Keeper is on my list to read...and I also enjoyed The Roots of the Olive Tree.
Have a fabulous New Year!
I really need to get back into the City of Women book. Nice list!
i have not read any of these..thanks for stopping by..
will check out some of these..
I haven't read any of these, either! But I've been hearing good things about Kate Morton.
I haven't read any of these books, but I'm really glad you had a good reading year. Here's to 2013!
I haven't read any of these! I'm going to have to fix that soon :)
Thanks for stopping, Rebecca.
I hope you can read some of them.
I can't believe I haven't read any of these! My list of to-be-reads just keeps getting longer and longer. Alas, a good problem to have, don't you think?
Love your site. Will have to follow. :)
Thanks for stopping by, Cellardoorians.
Thanks for the follow.
I really need to read The Secret Keeper. Glad to see it made your top list for 2012!
City of Women and The Secret Keeper are on my list to read - glad you loved them so much!
- Jessica @ Book Sake
Sounds like an interesting list but I have not read any of them. Ropewalk, Literally Dead and City of Women sound especially good.
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
