Ten Favorite Books Released in Each Year of the Past Decade

I'm linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl for another Top Ten Tuesday.

This week is not about our all-time favorite books of the past ten years, but our favorite book released in each of the past ten years. This turned out to be extremely difficult, because some of my very favorite books were published in the same year as each other — how could I choose? Here's what I settled on.

2009: What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty

2010: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

2011: The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh

2012: The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay

2013: We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves by Karen Joy Fowler

2014: Being Mortal by Atul Gawande

2015: Accidental Saints by Nadia Bolz-Weber

2016: Born a Crime by Trevor Noah

2017: The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas

2018: Small Animals by Kim Brooks

Which books have been your favorites from the past decade?

Looking back:
One year ago I was reading: Curtain and Disunity in Christ
Five years ago I was reading: Left to Tell, Siddhartha, and The Checklist Manifesto
Ten years ago I was reading: Metaphors We Live By
