I loved last year event. Here we go again . today i'll post my top books of 2012// sorry breaking rules but could not pick 10
Contemporary
i loved this book . sad but happy Matt got to know a bit about brother TJ. Its an army book. It shows that stereo types are wrong especially for a certain group. THERE are also biracial couples and every character even the minor ones have let a impression left . good or left. pls read this book . pls.
A army book as well . Am i seeing a patron. This is about Travis, a teen us army afganistan veteran. A war can cause trauma. And i''m happy Travis has support from someone special. There is also mention of the same group. pls read this one too
This takes right after the 2nd world war. its m/m so that could be a hinderance for some ppl. it has YA crossover appeal. But more for adult YA readers. i loved how the story was resolved and the lovers fixed each others.
a 2012 under hyped book . A great gritty and dark contemp. THE four teens changed for better or worse. pls read it .pls. i can't wait to read her debut.
FANTASY and PARANORMAL
THE 470 pages flew by and it has one of the sweetest couples or could be couple in YA. The oldest book in this list. I just love the characters and the bad dude was scary.Fantasy fans should read it.
THERE are a few Persephone retellings. This is the only one that interested me and WOOH. EVERY emotion was evoked in me. FROM how the story was build . THE past and present. THE prologue , that bleeping ending and prologue. need book 2.
A fairy tale envisioning.DARK morbid and a great ride.GREAt scenery and i can't wait to re read it and have my own finished copy and Allysa is kickass sk8trgirl.
OUT of body travel , a biracial couple and body snatching oo. THE gorgeous cover matches the inside. A slow building romance and great characters
Murder mystery, Prince and the pauper story. Modern setting with Angels. Great plot with 3 point of views. Believable male protagonist and sweet romance. This shows even celebs can write great novels. I can't wait for book 2.
LOVED the russian fantasy elements and read it from cover to cover. THE characters were awesome especialy Zoya. The plot is definitely not overwhelmed by the romance and I really felt that it was intertwined nicely.NEED BOOK2
i'm breaking a rule now
A bleak USA that could be true in the future . *shiver*. i LOVED ember and chase got to trust each other again.CHASE was the star of this book. I have a crush on Chase SWOON. He's so dangerous and amazing and I <3 him. ha ha. A little fan boying didn;t hurt anyone
Great picks. The only one I read from your list is Everneath, but the other ones sound really good too.
ReplyDeleteAwesome picks! I definitley loved Immortal City, Shadow and Bone, and Article 5. All three were brilliant books!
ReplyDeleteGreat list, Roro! I've read only Graceling so far from these, and yeah, I loved it :) The rest I already wanted to read, so I'm glad you loved them, I'm hoping to get to them in 2013 :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome picks Roro! Graceling is an amazing read and I didn't know Everneath was a retelling of Persephone's story.

I really want to read Splintered and Shadow and Bone, but haven't gotten around to it yet. Graceling is on my list, too, though!
ReplyDeleteI loved Shadow & Bone and Graceling (although I read the latter several years ago). Everneath wasn't for me, and I plan to read Something Like Normal eventually too, since the reviews I've seen are mostly praising. Great list and happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteEverneath and Shadow and Bone are lovely books. I really should get around to reading Graceling, too-- I've heard such wonderful things about it. Great list!
ReplyDeleteGreat list!!! But I haven't read Immortal City yet...
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to read Graveling, Immortal City, Everneath, Shadow and Bone, and Article 5. I've heard the first two are great books involving the military and experiences a person goes through in that. Pieces of Us seems like a good emotional read.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
I really enjoyed Article 5, can't wait for Breaking Point!!! Everybody seems to adore Shadow and Bone, I really need to pick that one up soon.
ReplyDeleteShadow and Bone and Graceling are awesome! Immortal City and Article 5 are both on my tbr. Thanks for sharing and for stopping by our blog!
