Happy Tuesday! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas, and maybe even got a new book or two 🙂 As sad as it is that Christmas is over, it is fun to take some time to look back at 2020 and ahead to the new year. Today I’m joining That Artsy Reader Girl’s Top Ten Tuesday linkup and sharing my favorite books of 2020!
So far I have read 135 books in 2020 – I may finish another one by the 31st, but even if I don’t, I have surpassed my goal of 120 for the year and my record of 109 last year! The problem with reading so many books is that it was hard to narrow it down to my 10 favorites 😉 It would be even harder to rank them, so I’ll just list them in alphabetical order!
My Favorite Books of 2020
- Chasing the White Lion by James R. Hannibal
Definitely an intense thriller – James R. Hannibal is becoming one of my favorite authors!
2. Everywhere to Hide by Siri Mitchell
This book features one of the most unique heroines and plots I’ve read about in a long time!
3. Fortitude: American Resilience in the Era of Outrage by Dan Crenshaw
Congressman Crenshaw is one of my favorite people to follow, and this book is so perfect for the times and culture we are living in.
4. The Jerusalem Assassin by Joel C. Rosenberg
Joel C. Rosenberg is one of my all-time favorite authors, and the Marcus Ryker series is his best yet!
5. Jesus Over Everything: Uncomplicating the Daily Struggle to Put Jesus First by Lisa Whittle
This book came out at a time in my life when I really needed it, and it’s definitely one I will read again.
6. Only You by Susan May Warren
The Deep Haven and Christiansen Family series are some of my favorites of Susan May Warren’s (and both series are on Kindle Unlimited!). This prequel novella is a fun story that includes some of my favorite characters from those series, and got me excited for the Deep Haven collection coming out in 2021! Only You is free for Sunrise Publishing email subscribers – even better 😉
7. Soul Raging by Ronie Kendig
This is the much-anticipated conclusion to the Book of the Wars series, and it is definitely worth the wait! I think this is my favorite of Ronie Kendig’s series so far.
8. Things We Didn’t Say by Amy Lynn Green
This incredible epistolary novel earned Amy Lynn Green a spot among my favorite WWII authors. I can’t wait to read whatever she writes next!
9. To Love a Prince by Rachel Hauck
A stunning novel by Rachel Hauck that demonstrates why she is the master of royal stories!
10. You’re Not Enough (and That’s Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love by Allie Beth Stuckey
This is another book that is so timely and relevant. I love Allie’s heart for the Gospel and the way she points us back to the truth of God’s word.
What were some of your favorite books of 2020? Please let me know in the comments – I’m always looking for more books to add to my TBR!
Soul Raging does sound interesting. I saw it on someone else’s list this week, too.
My post.
Congrats on crushing your reading goal! It looks like you found some great reads, too. THINGS We DIDN”T SAY is one I’m looking forward to reading in 2021.
Happy TTT!
Susan
