This list would have had a lot of overlap with my best fiction, non-fiction, and romance books I've read this year, so I've excluded those that I've already mentioned on the blog! So here are some that I haven't given the due diligence to, but I still think you should check out!
Meet Cute by Helena Hunting
Meet Cute is such a darling romance novel. I read this all the way back in May 2019, and I would still recommend it to this day. If you like contemporary romance that adds fandom culture with familial issues that ends on such a satisfying note. This was my first Helena Hunting novel, but it won't be my last.
Love from A to Z by S.K. Ali
Love from A to Z is such a wonderful, soulful book. Though a YA novel, it's perfect for anyone who wants to read a book that wonderfully balances complex issues (Islamophobia, sexism, chronic illness, grief) and a heartwarming love story. S.K. Ali is such a talented writer, and she left me wiping away tears plenty of times.
Again, But Better by Christine Riccio
When I finished Again, But Better, I was so pleasantly surprised. I've been following Christine Riccio for quite some time, but was a bit hesitant to pick up her debut novel, but I'm so thankful I did! The following are my thoughts right off the bat, and I still agree with all of them! I just might have to revisit this book as I'm applying to internships at the moment.
I’m almost done reading Again, But Better by @xtineMAY and Shane’s arc perfectly explains my passions, anxieties, and goals of having a career in publishing! I love having a story I can relate so much to, and one that makes me feel like I can accomplish my dreams 💗💗💗— Gennifer Eccles (@genniblogs) June 11, 2019
Evvie Drake Starts Over by Linda Holmes
2019 was the year I started reading contemporary adult novels! Evvie Drake Starts Over is romance-adjacent, and though I still love love love my romance, Evvie Drake Starts Over was such a lovely little tale about starting over, forgiveness, grief, and love. Also, if you like baseball, it's got that as well!
Start Here by Trish Doller
Start Here had me wiping tears from the first chapter. The novel follows two estranged friends, Willa and Taylor, after their mutual best friend's death (Finley). Start Here is an empowering, emotional YA novel that will make you grateful for your health, happy for your friends, and looking forward to the next adventure.
Watch Over Me by Mila Gray
Thank you so much for stopping by and I'll see you soon with another post!
Happy Reading!
Genni @ Ready, Set, Read!
