I managed to read 32 book during 2017, which isn't bad when you take into consideration a new job (that ultimately didn't work out which is why I found a new job that I'll be starting in about 3 weeks), and plowing through classes so that I could finish my grad school degree before 2018. Of those 32 books these are my top 10 favorite (not in any order)!
American Street by Ibi Zoboi
(this is also my favorite book cover!!!)
It Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover
(a non diverse book)
Beast by Brie Spangler
Little and Lion by Brandy Colbert
The Boy in the Black Suit by Jason Reynolds
Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli
(No idea why I didn't review this. lol)
The Hating Game by Sally Thorne
(A non-diverse book, but I loved it)
If I was Your Girl by Meredith Russo
(Loved that this was Own Voices)
Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys
(I wouldn't necessarily put this in the category of diverse either. But it's a great read... or listen)
Holding up the Universe by Jennifer Niven
(not Own Voices but still good)
May your 2018 be filled with joy and books!
