Weekly topic for discussion - What was your best reading experience in 2013?

[Jonetta]

Has it been a good reading year for you? What were some of the best books you read that you still think about? Did you discover any new authors or series? And maybe you reconnected with some old friends with a good re-read.

Whatever was exceptional for you, share it here so maybe we can add a new book, author or series to our shelf.

Oh my, there were sooooo many good books I got to read this year.

Of course, I enjoyed getting totally swept up in Whiskey Beach and Dark Witch

I also thought Unattainable, Lick, Tangled, Into the Deep, Wethering the Storm, Down London Road and Entwined with You were awesome as well.

I discovered 2 new series, Downside Ghosts by Stacia Kane which I have fallen in love with and highly recommend. I also really enjoyed the Heather Wells books by Meg Cabot, so, so funny!!

The Downside Ghosts books are stories that for some odd reason I really connected with and think about a lot.

I never thought that the storyline or characters would be something I'd find interesting.

The 2 main characters really got to me. It's funny how for whatever reason something will really resonate with you.

I discovered two new authors this year, Abbie Williams and Reese Ryan. I read their first books and loved them, only to later find out they expanded to series.

I accidently discovered some new authors this year. First, Felicia Tatumwho wrote series. She's actually pretty cool. I have her on FB and have talked to her a few times. :) Next is Lilliana Anderson who wrote series. Now I'm reading by G.J Walker-Smith :) All in all, it's been a good book year.
