Over the next few weeks we’ll be posting our top reads of the year. Please feel free to tell us your own favourites, or simply comment on our choices.

Audio: The Palisade by Rosalind Abel, Narrated by Kirt Graves
What a great way to start a series! I am utterly hooked and
can’t wait for more!
Audio: Dim Sum Asylum by Rhys Ford, Narrated by Greg Tremblay
This was a fabulous world with fabulous characters written in a
fabulous way and read by a fabulous narrator.
Someone to Call My Own by Aimee Nicole Walker
I have loved Emory since the start of the Curl Up and Dye series.
His story was so emotion and just perfect for him.
Audio: Cronin’s Key Series by N.R. Walker, Narrated by Joel Leslie
This whole series in audio was just utter perfection. The narration
truly did this rich and entertaining story justice.
Audio: Vassily the Beautiful by Angel Martinez, Narrated by Greg Boudreaux
This is one of my all time favorite Angel Martinez stories. It is a
fantastic rendition of an obscure fairy tale that was masterfully
written and just as masterfully narrated.
This is a fantasy series that challenges my preconceived notions
and continually grows with each installment. Ummana is gritty and real
and full of challenging concepts. The characters are fierce and the love
they feel is off the chart intense. I love it.
Written ten years after book one this story was a prime example of a
talented author. The details were flawless and the story flowed easily
from the end of book 1.
Audio: Lord Mouse by Mason Thomas, Narrated by Joel Leslie
This was so imaginative and well crafted. And the narrator was a
perfect fit.
Great story of healing and a great example of how to show how love
can develop outside of the bedroom.
A slow and steady journey of happiness. From friends to lovers, this story stole my heart.
thank you for sharing your list, Pizzygirl. I loved Five Times My Best Friend Kissed Me, but I have not listened to the audio… I’ll add it to my listening list!
Thanks for sharing your list! Several on there I loved as well, so will have to check out the others that I don’t yet have.
I still need to read these!
Thanks for your tops. I’ve been looking at Dim Sum Asylum, so good to see you thought it was so good.
loved the audios of Dim Sum Asylum and Cronin’s Key 🙂
Great selections of books. Some of my favorites and enjoyed books on the list. Thanks for sharing your list!
Thanks for sharing your list! I have a few of these that I need to read, but several are new books that I hadn’t seen before. Will definitely be checking them out.
You have some so my favorite books! I can’t wait for Mason Thomas’ next release.
I enjoyed Conin’s Key books. Most I havent read here but Dim Sum Asylum is one I keep toying with, so may go for it!
This is a great list, thank you for sharing. one of my favorite reads in 2017 was Controlled Burn by Erin McLellan
