Hey everyone! I haven’t participated in Top Ten Tuesday in almost a month and then the week I decide to participate the topic is similar to a post that I’ve had in my backlog for weeks. What a perfect comeback!
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is books from my favorite genre. Since I had this in my drafts, I switched it up and decided to list my all-time favorite books because I don’t have one all-time favorite book. I HAVE MANY. And it depends.
This post is organized by target audience and genre. Also, I only included the first book for book series. I hope I didn’t leave any books out.
Middle Grade
YA Contemporary
YA Sci-fi & Fantasy
Adult Fiction
Non-Fiction

Thanks! The Poet X is great and my favorite of Acevedo’s two books. She narrates the audiobook, if you’re open to that.

I agree with so many of these! I love Harry Potter (of course), Aristotle and Dante, and Skyward! I recently completed Strange the Dreamer, and I have a feeling that series is going to be one of my favorites as well. 🙂 Great list, Merline!

That looks like a great list. Loved Six of Crows. And I really need to jump on Scythe, The Poppy War and City of Brass.

OHMYGOSH YES!!! I love that you included The Winner’s Curse, I feel like that trilogy does not get talked about enough – it’s so well written, it dodges a bajillion YA & fantasy tropes & I adore Kestrel ❤

I love that trilogy! I read it this year and enjoyed it immensely. I can’t believe it hadn’t been on my radar before this year.
