Top Ten Tuesday #42
Favorite Books of 2023
Even though I didn’t read very much last year, I’m still really excited for today’s prompt. I always love sharing my favorite reads from the previous year. I’ve decided to exclude any rereads from my list. Here are my top ten eight favorite books from 2023:
- Meet Me at the Lake by Carley Fortune
- Radical Love by Zachary Levi
- The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E Smith
- The Only Girl in Town by Ally Condie
- The Measure by Nikki Erlick
- Building a Life Worth Living by Marsha M. Linehan
- Atomic Habits by James Clear
- The It Girl by Ruth Ware
What about you? Which books were your favorite reads from 2023? Do we have any in common?
The Measure looks really gorgeous, I’ll have to look it up.
THE MEASURE made me think the most. I thought about it a lot in between reads and it has stuck with me more than any of the other books I read. I hope you enjoy it if you read it. 😀
I haven’t read any of these but I did fancy the Ruth Ware book.
I hope you enjoy it if you read it. 😀
I also read The It Girl this year! Didn’t make my favorites list but I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I understand. Honestly, I wouldn’t say it’s a favorite, but since I read so few books it made it onto my list, lol.
I had forgotten about The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight. That was on my to-read list and I never got around to it.
I hope you love it when / if you get around to it. 😀
I’ve heard excellent things about many of these books. I hope you have a great 2024!

Thanks, Pam! 😀 I hope you have a great 2024 as well!
Ooh nice! These are new to me ones but glad to hear you enjoyed them all last year!
Thanks for visiting my TTT!
Thanks so much, Jessica! 😀
I found Atomic Habits really helpful. I like Ruth Ware’s books, though I haven’t gotten to this one yet. Thanks for sharing your recommendations!
I thought ATOMIC HABITS was really helpful too. I need to reread it so I can take notes to help implement the ideas better.
Fun that we both had Atomic Habits on our lists! I will check out Building a Life Worth Living. That seems a good companion.
Yes, I was really excited to see it on your too. 😀 If you do read BUILDING A LIFE WORTH LIVING, I hope you enjoy it. It’s a memoir just so you know.
I have heard great things about Atomic Habits and am glad to see it made your favorite’s list. I would like to read that one. The It Girl also really appeals to me. I have enjoyed other books by Ruth Ware and think I would like that one too. I will have to check out your other favorites too! Thank you for sharing!
THE IT GIRL is the only Ruth Ware book I’ve read. I’ll totally read others by her, though. 😀
The Measure has been on my TBR for a while now – glad to hear that it’s so good! I will hopefully get around to reading it this year.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

It’s been a while since I read it but I really loved The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight.
It’s such a cute book, isn’t it? 😀
Atomic Habits has been on my TBR for so long. I just need to pick it up already!! haha. Great list. 🙂
Lol. I totally understand. That’s how I feel about so many of the books I saw on other lists today, like TJ Klune. I don’t know why I’m waiting. 😀
Given I work for a habit-setting app, I really need to give Atomic Habits a go! But I never seem to get round to it, oops. Good to know it was helpful though!
That’s really cool that you work for a habit-setting app. Which one? I’ve tried a few. If you do ever read ATOMIC HABITS, I hope you enjoy it. 😀
Happy New Year! Great list. You know, I really need to give Ruth Ware another shot. I read One By One, but found it rather mediocre.
Thanks! Happy New Year to you as well. I wouldn’t say that I didn’t find Ware’s book mediocre either. I just liked most of it and since I read so few books, THE IT GIRL ended up on my list. 😀
I haven’t read any of these, but a few look really good. Thanks for sharing your top ten!
Thanks, Tammy! 😀 You’re welcome!
