Top 10 All-time favorite books of the last 5 years


Throne of Glass series

I love fantasy novels.  There is also something interesting about books with fae and faeries.  Their portrayals are always so different.  And I am anxiously awaiting the next in the series.



Penryn and the End of Days Series

Again, fantasy novels.  I can't wait for End of Days to come out.  I love the writing in these books and I love all of the characters.  Plus it's about the end of the world. 



The Darkest Minds series

Alternate presents in science fiction are truly amazing when they can be pulled off.



Legend series

Of these, my favorite is definitely Champion. I love how the ending is well thought out, and yet it's bittersweet and not horrendously sad.



The Darkest Part of the Forest

More on this with my next review.



Snow Like Ashes

This is only the first book in the series.  I didn't expect to like it so much, but I was pleasantly surprised. Now I am waiting on the second book.



Paper Towns

John Green has a way of making me laugh at things that aren't funny.  And I loved this book so much because he pokes fun at everything Florida (namely everything Central Florida).  Having lived here all my life this book made me laugh out loud, literally.



Where She Went

The second book of the If I Stay series, it deals with depression, loss, heartbreak, etc.  I loved it more than the first book.



ACID

I was very skeptical about this one.  But Pass did a great job with Jenna Strong as the heroine.  I love how she would get so confused between her identities of Jenna, Mia, and Jess.  It was very realistic for science fiction.



The Kiss of Deception

Remnant Chronicles book 1.  Not much I can say about this that I haven't already.  I love that people aren't inherently good or evil, but a mix of both.
