That's one heck of an impressively diverse and wonderful list, Carissa. Top 2 favorites?

I hasn’t heard of Chronology or Chasing, and Ive owned Ladivine for some time without reading it, so thanks for the introductions and nudge! I should start making a best-of list for 2018, given the rate at which it’s flying past. My challenge lists are all comprised of quirky subsets... Stone Angel will definitely be on my top ten for the year.
