Recommended Reading from 2013

Each year, I aim to read around 50 books, which is close to a one-per-week pace. This year, I fell far short. That’s what happens when you write three novels and a novella in one year; there’s no time to read!


But among the books I did get the chance to read, there were several gems. And so, as I do every year around this time, I present a list of books I think y’all might enjoy as visitors to the BLog. Here, in no particular order, are this year’s:



Jumper by Steven Gould
Wildside by Steven Gould
Teen Boat! by Dave Roman and John Green
The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making by Catherynne M. Valente
Gods Without Men by Hari Kunzru
The Intercept by Dick Wolf
Every Third Thought: A Novel in Five Seasons by John Barth
Ghostman by Roger Hobbs
Caught by Harlan Coben
Doctor Sleep by Stephen King
Disgrace by J. M. Coetzee

If you give any of these a try, I hope you enjoy them! Happy New Year and Happy Reading!
