Top Ten Favorite Books from the Past Three Years


I'm linking up with The Broke and the Bookish for another Top Ten Tuesday.

For this week, I'm supposed to pick my ten favorite books that I've read in the past three years. But as with my favorite books of 2014, I find it too hard to compare fiction and nonfiction, so I've created a separate list for each.

Most of these books are ones I've talked about previously, so I'll spare you the gushing this time and just share the lists!

Fiction



American Gods by Neil Gaiman



Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty




The Homecoming of Samuel Lake by Jenny Wingfield



The Invention of Wings by Sue Monk Kidd



The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh



Marcelo in the Real World by Francisco X. Stork



Room by Emma Donoghue



The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger



Nonfiction












What are the best books you've read in the past three years?

  7. I'm so glad you liked The Time Traveler's Wife after I recommended it to you! I didn't know you had read American Gods. I think you will really like Pastrix!

  8. I loved it, but I listened to it on audiobook and had a hard time keeping track of the jumps in time. I recommend reading it in hard copy unless you have a better memory than I!
