I’ve had a brilliant year of reading so had a look back today to come up with a top 10 books of 2023 list, in no particular order:
Towards Zero, Agatha Christie, 1944
Small Things Like These, Claire Keegan, 2021
I’m A Fan, Sheena Patel, 2022
Moshi-Moshi, Banana Yoshimoto, 2010
less, andrew Sean Greer, 2017
Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, Gabrielle Zevin, 2022
Being Seen: One Deafblind Woman's Fight to End Ableism, Elsa Sjunneson, 2021
The Fashion In Shrouds, Margery Allingham, 1938
A Month in the Country, J. L. Carr, 1980
Revolutionary Road, Richard Yates, 1961
That was incredibly hard! These are the books I highly recommend and that stayed with me long after reading. Ask me again in a few days and I’ll probably give you a different list haha!
2023 has been my first year of posting book reviews here and it’s started some great conversations and led me to trying out Storygraph again where I’m now tracking my reading and adding reviews, and I’m finding it so much fun #bookstodon @bookstodon
@bookstodon I’m still reading The Light Years by Elizabeth Jane Howard which is wonderful, think it might possibly have made the list if I’d managed to get through it over Christmas! Definitely going to continue the series in 2024 #bookstodon
