Best Reads of 2019

pile of books with one open on top
   

I had a great reading year. I didn’t keep track but I know I read well over fifty books. This was in part thanks to many months of breastfeeding, my husband being the primary driver on road trips, book club, and a few audiobooks. Please note that not all of the books I chose were published this year, they are just my favorites that I read this year. Below I’ve selected my top twelve book reads of 2019, one for every month! I hope you find a book recommendation that you can’t wait to read.

I haven’t had a five-star book in a long time! Finally, I read a book that I deemed worthy and I hope you think so too. There are four great new books this month to choose from. With the holidays right around the corner, you might want to start thinking about what books would make the perfect gifts for your friends and family.

February 2019 Book Reviews and Recommendations

Four book reviews and recommendations for the month of February. All these books make excellent book club picks. Murder and mystery to gender identity and a mother's love these books have it all. One might even make my top books of the year list! #ILoveReading #booklover

Another five-star book recommendation is included in this month’s book reviews!  I also gave Erik Larson another chance and read a book before I check out the movie.  See below to check out what I read for February.

Reading is my everything.  It helps me relax after a hard day.  Reading allows me to tolerate long drives because I hate being in the car.  I can’t imagine going a day without reading even if it is only a few pages.  Reading is my sanity.  Here are my five favorite books that I read this year;
