Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature/meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week’s topic is Top Ten Books I’ve Read So Far in 2015.
I’m only counting books I read for the first time in 2015, so although I reread some wonderful books, you won’t find them here. Also, not all of these debuted in 2015; some are older titles which I hadn’t read before. Rather than rank each book, I’ve just grouped them by how many stars I gave them. If I wrote a review, clicking on the cover should take you to it (and if it doesn’t, I haven’t posted a review yet!)

What are the ten best books you’ve read so far this year?
Lianne @ eclectictales.com
Oooh, awesome that you enjoyed Uprooted! I think I’ve come across it a few times already for TTT; I think I’m going to have to bump it up the wishlist queue 😉 Great list! 🙂

It was really gorgeous – definitely worth bumping up on your list.
Katherine @ I Wish I Lived in a Library
I have read none of these and that makes me sad! Most of these are on my TBR though and I”m on the waiting list at the library for The Liar. I’m so embarrassed that I haven’t read Dreaming Spies yet. I love that series! No idea why I keep putting off reading it. Weird how we do things sometimes. Great list!

I’m re-reading Dreaming Spies now, as I read it aloud to Robin – it’s just as good the second time. My library’s waiting list for The Liar was ridiculously long – I thought I would have to wait until September, but they relented and purchased 10 more copies. 🙂
Lory @ Emerald City Book Review
I did not do an official TTT, but here goes: Uprooted, The Fellowship, The Golem and the Jinni, Bitter Greens, El Deafo, H Is for Hawk, Alias Grace, Shadows on the Rock, The Nutmeg Tree, My Brilliant Friend. Whew!

That’s a great list, Lory – and I have at least three on my TBR list already (The Fellowship, The Golem and the Jinni, and H is for Hawk.) I’ll have to check out the rest!
R_Hunt @ View From My Home
Thanks, Lark, for an interesting and eclectic list. I’ve added Uprooted, The Counterfeit Heiress, and The Liar to my wishlist. The others I will certainly check out further.

I’m so glad you found a few to intrigue you!

“Orphan Train” is on my summer to-read list. I hope I enjoy it as much as you! And I’m already looking forward to the next Tasha Alexander book. It comes out in October!

Orphan Train was wonderful! And I’m so glad that The Counterfeit Heiress introduced me to Tasha Alexander. I’d been meaning to read her for years, and now I’m trying to make my way through the whole series.
Rosy @ The Review Diaries
I haven’t read any of these yet, but The Counterfeit Heiress looks really good, definitely going on my to read pile!

You can read it without reading the books before it (I did!), but it is number 9 in a series. I liked it so much, I’m making my way through the whole series.
Rosy @ The Review Diaries
Ooo that’s good to know! I’m always in need of new series and this one sounds it’s going to right up my street! Thanks for putting it on my radar!

I hope you find some of these appealing! I know exactly what you mean about the ever-growing wishlist – mine is positively groaning!

I haven’t read any of these! I remember your awesome review of Beastkeeper and really want to read it! Uprooted has also been universally lauded so that’s pretty high on the list.

Beastkeeper and Uprooted are both wonderful! I loved your list, too – I haven’t read any of them, either, but Jackaby is high on my want-to-read list, as is are both the Harry Dresden and Sabriel series. And my husband enjoyed Gulp; I’ve been a slacker so far on the Mary Roach books, while he has plowed through pretty much all of them in audiobook.
