Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature/meme now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. The meme was originally the brainchild of The Broke and the Bookish. This week’s topic is The Best Books I Read in 2024.
My Top 13 books of 2024
Favorite books of 2024:
All these books got either 5 stars or 4.5 stars from me. The title links go to my reviews. (As you can see, I’m behind on reviews!) The books are listed below in the order I read them.

Bookshops & Bonedust and Emily Wilde were both fun reads. I really want to read Muse of Maiden Lane and I keep hearing about Ally Carter. Happy new year!

I’m so excited for Wooing the Witch Queen! And so many of your favs are on my TBR! That Star Trek book sounds fascinating, too.

I’m on the waitlist for the audio of The Spellshop and hopefully I’ll get it at some point soon. I’m really looking forward to reading it. I also really enjoyed Mind Games. The first Emily Wilde book is coming up on my reading list and I can’t wait. Great mix of books!
