Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. Top Ten Tuesday was originally created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
This was a tough list to comprise for me!! Do I pick audiobooks? Do I select nonfiction or nonfiction books? Do I chose from a specific genre? So many choices to choose from when considering which books to add to this week's Top Ten Tuesday post.
I chose to go with fiction novels and no specific genre chosen for the following list of books. I absolutely loved the following novels and wouldn't hesitate recommending them to others. All of these novels are well written and most of them provide thought provoking characters and content.
Click on the links to read my review of each novel.
1. All Is Not Forgotten by Wendy Walker
2. The Roanoke Girls by Amy Engel
3. The Familiar Dark by Amy Engel
4. The Last Runaway by Tracy Chevalier
5. The Second Mrs. Hockaday by Susan Rivers
6. The Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt

Thank you for stopping by and leaving me a comment.
DeleteNone of them are familiar to me, but my fiction tastes tend to be dominated by historical fiction or science fiction -- though last year was a HUGE exception after discovering Rachel Joyce and a few other authors. I spotlit some "funny" books if you're interested.
ReplyDeleteI love historical fiction too. Both The Last Runaway by Tracy Chevalier and The Second Mrs. Hockaday by Susan Rivers fall into the historical fiction genre.
DeleteThe Poet X is a good pick. I liked that one.
ReplyDeleteIt was so much better than I expected it to be!
DeleteThe only book on here I've heard of is Poet X, but I haven't read it yet.

I enjoyed Poet X so much more than I thought I would.
DeleteInteresting list, Lisa. I've read "The Last Runaway" and also have Tracy Chevalier on my list. I also read "The Vegetarian" which wasn't to my liking. But I'm glad it was yours.
