Best of the year - I cannot pick just one book. A person needs books for different moods. To appreciate fiction I need to balance them with non-fiction. I love both, BUT I must say that books of fiction have more scope for imagination and creativity which I highly value.

Paul (paa00a) | 202 comments Oh fun! I'll give this a shot.

My favorite books for 2017:

January – Flappers: Six Women of a Dangerous Generation by Judith Mackrell
February – Lord of the Flies by William Golding and Dark Matter by Blake Crouch
March – On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century by Timothy Snyder
April – Allegedly by Tiffany D. Jackson
May – Blitzed: Drugs in the Third Reich by Norman Ohler
June – The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka
July – The Penderwicks at Point Mouette by Jeanne Birdsall
August – Animal Farm by George Orwell
September –Dear Ijeawele, or a Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
October – The Color Purple by Alice Walker
November – Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King and Owen King
December – Metaphorical Theology by Sallie McFague

Best of the year – Boy, that's tough, but I think I'll go with a work that was less a book and more a booklet: Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century. Its strong and incisive arguments about our current political moment drawing from the lessons of 20th-century fascist movements only became more trenchant and insightful as the year progressed.

Pam Baddeley | 1342 comments My favourite books of 2017:

January - No 5-stars so picked one of the 4-stars: The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood, reviewed here - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1693679832
February - my only 5-star read was The Furies by Suzy Mckee Charnas, reviewed here - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1914468705.
March - No 5 star, so one of the fours - The Hungry Moon by Ramsey Campbell, reviewed here - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1925761435.
April - several 4 stars this month, no 5. As this was really a 4.5, I've chosen Warlock of the Witch World as it's a re-read of an old favourite that, unlike so many in the last couple of years, did not disappoint - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1954249088
May - not such a good month for reading, with a few 3 stars as the best and this was probably the best of those - Diana Wynne Jones' Mixed Magics - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1993431949
June - Another tricky month with a lot of 3-star ratings and even a couple of 2s, so I chose one I enjoyed despite some flaws with the ending - Sorceress of the Witch World by Andre Norton - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1716692837
July - A better month with some 4 stars and one 5 - by Louise Cooper, The Initiate - reviewed - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2064525583.
August - Unfortunately, a lot of 2- and 3-star books this month, so had to pick the only 4-star: Nightwings by Robert Silverberg - review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2094886576.
September - the only 4 star read was - Orchid by Jayne Castle - review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2108841818.
October - A sea of 3 star reviews this month so, just because it is different from the Jayne Castles I read otherwise, Best Ghost Stories of Algernon Blackwood - review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2140404455
November - only a couple of 4-stars this month, so am choosing Dragonflight by Anne McCaffrey, my favourite - review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1444115513.
December - Again, quite a few 4-star reads, and am choosing the final book in C J Cherryh's Morgaine trilogy (ignoring the later fourth volume for the present), Fires of Azeroth, reviewed - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2225417471.

Best of the year - I only rated 2 books as 5-star reads this year and on the grounds of the greater character building, the choice has to go to The Furies by Suzy McKee Charnas, my February choice.

Stef Rozitis | 28 comments Love this idea! Count me in.

January - Feminist Practice and Poststructuralist Theory by Chris Weedon 5 stars

February - New Feminist Christianity Many Voices, Many Views by Mary E. Hunt 5 stars

March - We Are The Ones We Have Been Waiting For Light In A Time Of Darkness Light In A Time Of Darkness by Alice Walker 5 stars

April - Research Methods In Early Childhood An Introductory Guide by Penny Mukherji 5 stars

May - Saving Jesus from Those Who Are Right by Carter Heyward 5 stars

June - Feminisms in Education by Gaby Weiner 4 stars

July - Into the Wild Wood Erotic Feminist Fairy Tales by Annik Hill 4 stars

August - Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie 5 stars

September - The Good Women of China Hidden Voices by Xinran 5 stars

October - Full Frontal Feminism A Young Woman's Guide to Why Feminism Matters by Jessica Valenti 5 stars

November - Tie between Qualitative Educational Research Readings in Reflexive Methodology and Transformative Practice by Wendy Luttrell 5 stars and just to prove I can read fiction, Benighted by Kit Whitfield 5 stars

December - Lillian de Lissa, Women Teachers and Teacher Education in the Twentieth Century A Transnational History by Kay Whitehead 5 stars and the less enjoyable but crucial and brave Nauru Burning by Mark Isaacs also 5 stars. Both my December pics were Australian too!

The one I have to choose overall had the most life-changing impact on me and that is May's pic by Carter Heyward but considering how much I am more inclined to read women than men and how much more likely I am to positively review female writers (not deliberately, just because they are more likely to write in a way that I want to read) special mention goes to Mark Isaacs (Nauru burning) for writing something so important and tightly enough written to make the list ;)

I still need to pick one for April (out of 5 4-star books)

January - The Sandman, Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections (reread)
review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

February - The Sandman, Vol. 7: Brief Lives - I reread 2 longtime favorites this month, this one and The Martian Chronicles. But if I must pick one it has to be this one.

reviews
The Sandman, Vol. 7: Brief Lives
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

The Martian Chronicles

March - 2 5-star books already this month. I really can't just choose one. The Histories read Jan 1-March 9
(review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...)

I also finished rereading The Sandman, Vol. 9: The Kindly Ones this morning and loved it. review:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

April - I'm not sure yet; my 4-star books include The Sparrow, Stories of Your Life and Others Eifelheim, Death: The Time of Your Life, and Two Plays for Voices.

May - The Landmark Thucydides: A Comprehensive Guide to the Peloponnesian War (read April 1-May 27) Loved it! I definitely struggled with the first 100 pages or so, but I got used to it over time and ended up really loving it. I haven't finished my review yet, I think I need to mull over it for a bit. I'll link it here when I have one.

update - my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

June: probably The Fellowship of the Ring (a reread) my review:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

War Music: An Account of Books 1-4 and 16-19 of Homer's Iliad (poetry) and Teatro Grottesco (one of my favorite short story collections), both 5 stars

Guy Austin | 267 comments Well, I'm caught mid stream in a good book at months end, but of those I finished I am torn between A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail by Bill Bryson and Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell. One made me laugh out loud and was a great pleasure read. The other made me think out loud. Ultimately, I chose the one I seem to keep thinking about. Listed in Message #23.

Feb 01, 2017 08:50AM

Marina (sonnenbarke) I've updated message #4 with my favorite of January, Das Buch der verbrannten Bücher, which unfortunately hasn't been translated into English, or any other language for that matter. It's a non-fiction book about the authors whose books were burned by the Nazis on 10th May 1933. Very interesting and deeply saddening.

It was difficult to choose, because I had no 5 star reads but several 4 stars. I think this one was the best, though.

Sam | 68 comments Updated Message #15 to show my favorite book of January: Insomniac City: New York, Oliver, and Me.

I had some other great, 5★ reads (Bright Air Black, Lincoln in the Bardo, City of Saints & Thieves, The Bear and the Nightingale, Miss Jane: A Novel), but Bill Hayes' ode to Oliver Sacks and New York City is the one I continue to carry with me, recommend constantly, and is an instant classic for me and already vaulted into my all-time favorites.

Alice Poon (alice_poon) I've updated my message #27 with my January favorite The Peony Pavilion: Mudan ting, which I read in Chinese. This classical play (written in 1598) is forward in themes for its times - about freedom to love and courage to resist traditional conventions. Also, the poetic language is beautiful. The book link is to a celebrated English translation by Cyril Birch (the name is wrongly shown as Cecil Birch on the book page).
