Each year, I aim to read around 50 books, which is close to a one-per-week pace. This year, I fell far short. That’s what happens when you write three novels and a novella in one year; there’s no time to read!

But among the books I did get the chance to read, there were several gems. And so, as I do every year around this time, I present a list of books I think y’all might enjoy as visitors to the BLog. Here, in no particular order, are this year’s:

  • Jumper by Steven Gould
  • Wildside by Steven Gould
  • Teen Boat! by Dave Roman and John Green
  • The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making by Catherynne M. Valente
  • Gods Without Men by Hari Kunzru
  • The Intercept by Dick Wolf
  • Every Third Thought: A Novel in Five Seasons by John Barth
  • Ghostman by Roger Hobbs
  • Caught by Harlan Coben
  • Doctor Sleep by Stephen King
  • Disgrace by J. M. Coetzee

If you give any of these a try, I hope you enjoy them! Happy New Year and Happy Reading!
