2020 was a lot of things, and for me one of those things was an incredible reading year. I read more than I ever have, by a lot, and that led to me having a lot of books to choose from for my top ten of the year. I rated 63 books five stars this year, so narrowing the list down was hard, but after some thought, I came up with my list of ten of the best books I read in 2020.
I'll be posting a 2020 reading wrap up within the next couple of days with a lot of stats, but until then, here are my best books from 2020.
