As I haven't discovered a better way of expressing the following, I shall repeat what I said in previous years...
The books I select as my favorites each year are those that: I get lost in; the ones that while reading, I lose all track of time; the ones that evoke the strongest emotions; the ones that make me laugh, cry, blush, gasp, and sigh. Yeah, those books!
Each year I meticulously review my database and Goodreads shelves to select my favorites. Even though I arbitrarily decide upon the categories, I am careful in considering which books deserve each designation.
To all the authors whose stories entertained me this year, and especially those who wrote my favorites below, you've earned my highest esteem, gratitude, and adoration. Thank you!
Sadly, no matter how much I love a book, I am unable to recall details. In other words, although my devotion is clear, my memory is not. I would, indeed, like to attempt to explain my choices to anyone who may be interested.
My 2019 Stats
My Goodreads Challenge total was 236 (first reads and rereads of single titles).
My database total was 194 (first reads only & book bundles are counted as a single title).
There are several books that were published this year that I wanted to read but was unable to, some of which were published late in the year. I may have to make an exception for some of them and include them in next year's list, just as I made an exception this year for 3 books that were published in 2018.
My favorite genre remains romance, but I also enjoy carefully selected mysteries, suspense, thrillers, popular & literary fiction, and memoirs.
In 2019, I finished a total of 91 digital library books (Kindle and audiobooks). I was gifted with a Kindle Unlimited subscription and finished 44 of those, and during the short time I had the Audible Escape Package, I listened to 18 audiobooks. There were 7 books that I did not finish this year.
I'll be starting out 2020 with well over 250 books on my to-be-read shelves—primary and secondary—and nearly 100 books on my library wish list. I've chosen Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston as my first read of 2020 and set my Goodreads Challenge goal at 210 books.

I have heard great things about Jennifer Armentrout! I want to read Giver of Stars. Alos The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek deals with a similar subject. I've seen great reviews of Daisy Jones but haven't decided if I want to read it or not. LOL
Amy, I LOVED The Giver of Stars and have The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek on my library holds list. I learned of The Giver of Stars because I have read and enjoyed several of Jojo Moyes' books. I learned of the latter in this article: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/tomiobaro/jojo-moyes-the-giver-of-stars-kim-richardson-bookwoman-of.
I was somewhat hesitant to read Daisy Jones & The Six thinking that the interview format would be too similar to the epistolary style of writing, which I am generally not a fan of. I was very pleased with my decision to give it a try. I hope you are pleased if you decide to read it!
Your recommendations have worked out for me. Thanks! Christy
I don't think I've read any of Moyes' books!
Yes, that's my concern with Daisy Jones! I just can't get into that type of novel as easily as other kinds.
Ok, first, book updates are never monotonous to this reader. Second, dang girl! That's a lot of books! We read a few similar and I'm definitely checking out your reviews of a couple I've had my eye on. We will compare notes. Cheers to a book filled 2020!
Since you and I were introduced because of our love of books all those many years ago, I think book discussions will always be a good thing between us. At least I hope so! Thanks for taking a look and for your comment, Roberta. I do a lot of highlighting and note writing and sometimes manage to write reviews. I hope to see your list soon. And yes, a book filled 2020 is something to look forward to. Thank you, friend!
Wow! As Havefaith1 said, Dang, girl, that’s a lot of books! Although we rarely read the same books, we both love very much to read. I, too, found reading a blessing on our long road trip. So what(!) if the weather turns gnarly; we can be cozy inside reading! Cheers to reading! Happy New Year, Sistah!
Yep, we had the best of both worlds—fictional and all of the spectacular real-world places we visited! Happy reading and New Year to you too, Sistah!
