What is the best book you have read recently?

This board has been kind of dead the past week so lets get this board going! What was the best book you have read recently?

Shepherdjel · February 2014

I haven't read anything amazing lately, all the 6 books I have read this year are all 3/3.5 stars but if I had to choose it would be In The Bag by Kate Klise. This was really cute, and I suggest that, if you are looking for a cute, fast, easy read then this is your book :-)

The Winter Sea and The Shadowy Horses by Susanna Kearsley. I just started reading The Firebird this morning, but I'm pretty sure I could add it to this list!

This was a rec from @julie37619. It was so fun! I really enjoyed it.

The Legend series by Marie Lu was EXCELLENT.

Skeezon · February 2014

I haven't been WOWed by a book in a while. Hopefully, that will change soon. I'm looking for something so good, it distracts me from real life.

Fangirl was pretty cute, but I haven't been overwhelemed by anything in a while.

The best book I've read recently was Letters from Skye. It was really well done. I couldn't quite give it 5 stars, but a solid 4.5. Way out of my comfort zone, but so worth it.

The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker

The Universe Versus Alex Woods by Gavin Extence

Night of Cake & Puppets!!!!!!!!!! I can hardly wait for Dreams of Gods & Monsters!!!!!! :x :x :x

Kate&Mark · February 2014

I've been in a bit of a reading slump lately, but I keep thinking about The Returned by Jason Mott. They made it into a TV show called Resurrection which will start airing next month - I'm pretty excited about it.

Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein

Stefibeth · February 2014

All of Rainbow Rowell's books have been recent favorites. I love her writing.

Also, The Winter Sea.

I just finished Dust, the last book in the Wool series, and it was amazing!!

ChristyDM82 · February 2014

The Legend series by Marie Lu.

I'm reading this now. While I'm enjoying it at about halfway, I'm not feeling the pull get right back into it as soon as I can read again. I think I heard that it gets more grippy at the end, so I'm hopeful.

muzikgrrl · February 2014

Wonder by RJ Palacio.

GilliC · February 2014

Anathem by Neal Stephenson

mrsvedo · February 2014

I've been reading Washington: A Life for close to 2 months so haven't read much else. I did put it down so I could read my IRL book club selection though and liked that. It was This is Where I Leave You by Jonathan Tropper.

I'm also reading A Different Witch (A Modern Witch #5) before the end of the month so I can borrow the next one from Kindle Lending Library this month. Really liking that one as always.

BabyRN2006 · February 2014

I've really enjoyed the last few books I've read: The Midwife's Confession by Diane Chamberlain, Twisted by Amity Hope, and Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan.

Now I am in a rut

dmlk413 · February 2014

The last really good book I read was Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn.

AllieAlba · February 2014

I literally love every book I read, pretty much. I finished The Left Hand of God trilogy last week, which was absolutely excellent (if you like books about psychologically damaged, murderous, sadistic teenage boys that are set in a very strange version of medieval europe, that is).

I've also finally gotten my hands on Inheritance by Malinda Lo, which has been good so far, not as much as Adaption though, I'd say.

PhoenixRising11 · February 2014

I am reading Mariah Stewart's Chesapeake Diaries series right now and am enjoying them. I would say that if you like Susan Mallery or Robyn Carr or Susan Wiggs, you would like them. They are women's fiction, bordering on romance, but without much smut.

denmanam · February 2014

I've only read 8 books this year, but two of my favorites so far are Frigid by J. Lynn and Onyx (Lux #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout. It's the same author, and I really like her books.

RiverPlate · February 2014

My favorite books over the past couple months have been Aleinated and Wonder.

(Edited cause I can't spell)

Wait until you get to Part 2. OMG.

sonore32 · February 2014

I'm probably late to the party on this one but I just finished the audio version of "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" and LOVED it! I'm already halfway through book 2 in the series. I was surprised bc I started it with low expectation.
