Americanah | Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

I had a pretty good year. Listened to some great audiobooks, discovered some new authors, & read some fantastic books. These are the ones that stood out the most to me this year. #topreads2016 #seasonsreadings2016

My #TopReads2016. So many good ones!
Of the 93 books I read, these rose to the top. Bandette! Lumberjanes! The Lie Tree! FINALLY read Night Circus! Crazy-ass Mount Char!

Finding them on Litsy and feeling supported to just Read All the Books by Littens everywhere helped me get through an otherwise less than lovely year.

Thanks for being here, book nerds!

A Year of Reading: A Month-by-month Guide to Classics and Crowd-pleasers for You and Your Book Group | Elisabeth Ellington, Jane Freimiller

I posted my #topreads2016 earlier this week (see #2016toptenbooks 😃) so I'm going to post my updated and final #yearinbooks. I read more than I thought (my goal for the year was 257 on GR) and that's largely thanks to litsy and all it's cool peeps recommending awesome new books left and right. Thanks y'all! Looking forward to more great reads and fun photo challenges in the new year! #seasonsreadings2016

LeahBergen Wow! 😮😮 8y

TrishB Double wow 😱😱 8y

Eyelit @lemonlime799 it's on Goodreads - all gr members got an email with a link to their year in books (I think it was sent out late November) 8y

ReadingOver50 @lemonlime799 in Goodreads go to My Books and at the top is a banner that says "see your year in books" You may need to be on the website for this. The app doesn't seem to have it. 8y

Eyelit Thanks @ReadingOver50 I didn't know how to access through the website itself - only knew of the email link! 😃 8y

The Sellout: A Novel | Paul Beatty

Here's to a sane and sensible 2017. We finally made it out of the trenches. As Ralph Ellison wrote, "Beware of those who speak of the spiral of history; they are preparing a boomerang. Keep a steel helmet handy."

Best wishes. Happy New Year!

LeahBergen I need to pick up a copy of that #pantshitter really soon. 😉 8y

I didn't read half as much as I planned in 2016 but I did read some good ones. Small Mercies & The Imperfectionists were my top reads. The right books at the right time. #topreads2016

MrBook Great selection and covers! 8y

Lumberjanes | Grace Ellis, Noelle Stevenson

I read some amazing books this year, this is only some of my favorites! I got so many great recommendations from you Littens, and I discovered a new love for graphic novels after seeing so many Lumberjanes posts! 💜 #bestreadsof2016 #bestof2016 #topreads2016

Suzze I never read graphic novels until Litsy. Now I love them! 8y

Mimi28 @Suzze Me either! The Lumberjanes was my favorite! 8y

Suzze @Mimi28 Love Lumberjanes and Giant Days. I think my fave might be I Hate Fairyland. 8y

Mimi28 @Suzze I started Giant Days on #hoopla but let it expire I can get it again. The first 2 peculiar Children books are in graphic novel form I read those, and Neverwhere is too! Oh and Benjamin Button! Read all those- awesome!! 👍📚 8y

MatildaBaggins @Suzze Same here! I'll have to look into Giant Days 👍🏼 8y

Reviewsbylola Dark Matter made my list too! (And seemingly everyone else's!) 8y
