Top Ten Tuesday #42

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
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:

  1. Meet Me at the Lake by Carley Fortune
  2. Radical Love by Zachary Levi
  3. The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E Smith
  4. The Only Girl in Town by Ally Condie
  5. The Measure by Nikki Erlick
  6. Building a Life Worth Living by Marsha M. Linehan
  7. Atomic Habits by James Clear
  8. The It Girl by Ruth Ware

What about you? Which books were your favorite reads from 2023? Do we have any in common?

    I’ve been curious about Zachary Levi’s memoir, but hadn’t seen anyone review it before. Thanks for reminding me to look into it further! Happy 2024, and thanks for stopping by my TTT earlier!

      It’s a very good memoir. I especially love listening to the audiobook because Zachary Levi narrated it. If you do read it, I hope you enjoy it. 😀

    I read The Statistical… several years ago when I was still working in a high school library. One of the students described that book as gooey and delicious like an undercooked brownie. Ha! Now you will have that picture in your head like I do!

    Happy New Year.

      There are just so many books out there that it’s impossible to read them all. If you ever do get around to this one or another by her, I hope you enjoy it. 😀

    I’ve also read Atomic Habits last year. Do you have any other books like this you have enjoyed? I’m slowly working my way through “self-improvement” books and the amount out there is overwhelming.

    I’m a huge fan of “The Bullet Journal Method”. I’ve also read ” The Miracle Morning”. There are probably more, but those I can remember from the top of my head.

      I honestly haven’t read many other self-help books. I normally don’t read them. The only reason I read ATOMIC HABITS is because my therapist recommended it to help me find ways to stick with my goals. 😀 I’m glad it was such a big help to you and good luck with the other books you read.

    This is such a great list, and it’s full of books that I’ve seen around but haven’t gotten to yet. I did read Meet Me at the Lake, and enjoyed it a lot, though. Maybe it’s a sign to check out some of these other books!

    Great list! I read The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight years ago and really enjoyed it, and I’ve been curious about Zachary Levi’s book. Happy New Year! 🙂

    I too really liked Jennifer’s! I’ve read a couple of hers, and have enjoyed them all, so I’m hoping that when I read more of hers I also have fun reading them. 🙂 Thanks so much for visiting my website/list from this week, too!

    Statistical Probability has been on my Goodreads shelf for years and years. I haven’t heard of the others but I’ll definitely be checking them out – that and I have heard of Ruth Ware and heard so many good things about her books, but I don’t think I’ve heard of this particular one. Happy 2024 and thanks for stopping by my TTT post!
