    If you're looking for a couple of cracking edge of your seat standalones to read may I suggest giving Elevator Pitch by Linwood Barclay & Kill For Me, Kill For You by Steve Cavanagh a go. Both had me hooked from the first chapter & elevator pitch will make you think twice about using elevators (at least for a couple of weeks)

      @@Bookswithcharlotte wow really? I always thought I was in the minority of why I didn't like it cause every booties I saw loved it. I think it's one of those books where its characters are what makes it and for some people they were great so if you really want to read it I say why not cause you could love it. But feel free to not take my unsolicited advice lol.
      I just didn't vibe with it because for me everyone made it seem like this harrowing story of a friendship over the years but when I read it it just seemed like a story of two really selfish people who keep taking turns getting to act childish while another guy was just caught in the middle being "perfect".

    Favorite book of the year, for me, is definitely The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern.
    This is such a dark and atmospheric story and woven into it are some sparks of light, incredible people and such a romantic romance.
    It also has so many great references to reading and writing. I could really find my own experiences within some of these pages, so many incredible descriptions.
    Furthermore, this was the most romantic book I read this year. Mind you, this is absolutely not a romance centered book in my opinion. But what we were seeing these chatacters do together and for wach other made my heart flutter.

    My favorite books this year have been Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom, I loved them so much that I'm already rereading them currently and annotating for the first time ever 😭 Also while the romance isn't the main part of the plot it has my new favorite fictionals couple 🥹
    Least favorite for me was also Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, I pushed through and ended up giving it 3 Stars but I was honestly so bored and it took me ages to finish.

    Favorite book so far of 2024: Heathen & Honeysuckle by Sarah A Bailey. I think about these characters so often that they'll live rent free and the next in the series is coming out in October and I can't wait.
    I've stayed away from books I don't think I'd like, nothing below a 3, but I'd say Entwined Fates by Juliane Maibach. I read it, don't remember it, and won't continue the series.

    I really hope you see this comment as I was wondering if you could read some books (or just try one book) by Agatha Christie. I know you read some mystery/thrillers and it's one of my favorite genres and I wanted to see your thoughts and opinions of her books as they're classic murder mysteries.

    Out of the books I finished, least favorite would probably be ‘Happy Place’ by Emily Henry. It just didn’t grasp my attention and keep me hooked like ‘Funny Story’ did. Out of the books I DNF’d it would be ‘Love in the time of serial killers’. The main character just bothered me so incredibly much that I couldn’t stand her.
    However my favorite books this year were ‘Offside’ by Avery Keelan and ‘The Fake Out’ by Stephanie Archer; we can sense a theme here. XD
    Loved the main characters in these books and everything from the romance and spice to the banter, and even the side characters just made me unable to put the books down!

    I’ve read 101 books so far this year, and my least favorite is Wait For Dark by Kay Hooper (I DNF’d it halfway through) and my favorite is either Listen For The Lie by Amy Tintera or The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin (I haven’t read Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by her because I’ve heard from some people with disabilities that the way the author portrays a disability in the book isn't great. But I have read Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac and I remember enjoying it when I read it, but I read it when I was 13, which was 4 years ago, so I can't say with complete confidence that it was a good book 😂)

    my worst book of the year was all the light we cannot see and the only reason i finished it was because i was listening while working and there was no time to find something else to listen to... it was so dull, i had zero interest in one of the characters pov and the other one became so boring after a few chapters and i think there is no reason to be such a long book when all it did was drag and for the first time short chapters actually annoyed me 🤐 on a positive note my favorite books were a good girl's guide to murder (fun story, lovable characters and it reminded me of pretty little liars) and welcome to the hyunam-dong bookshop (very cozy, made me reflect and calm down a lot about my own life, has very relatable themes and is set in a bookshop)
