best & worst reads 2024

best & worst reads in each month of 2024 part 2 🎀📚+ my 5 star reads each month 🩷

Insta won’t let me post more than 10 pics lol

Save this for the 5 stars ⭐️😜

You may love or hate some of these but this is my opinion of them 😅

Also, sometimes I love an author’s book and then read another from them that I don’t. It happens…

Qotd: worst book you read this year? best book?

Or are you adding any of these to your TBR?

As we look ahead to 2024, avid readers are eager to uncover the best and worst literary offerings each month. Popular genres like romance, thrillers, and historical fiction continue to captivate audiences. Monthly book wrap-ups have become a trend, helping readers curate their to-read lists based on both critical acclaim and personal experience. For instance, books like 'The Nomebound Body' and 'Hesheading Home NEXT DOOR' may lure readers with intriguing plots while some titles might falter despite high expectations. Book clubs are buzzing about standout authors like Elsie Silver, whose 'Hunted' is making waves this year. Engaging discussions around book ratings help foster a sense of community among book lovers. What will be your top reads of 2024? Don't forget to share your experiences with others as knowing each reader's opinion contributes to the dynamic literary discourse. Whether you find yourself enamored with a best-seller or disappointed by a much-anticipated novel, your insights are invaluable to the reading community. So, save this guide for all the five-star reads and make informed choices as you embark on a reading journey this year!

A room with shelves filled with books and DVDs, a pink retro television, and Halloween pumpkin decorations. The image has a text overlay that reads "sapphic novels for you."

The book cover for "Keeping You a Secret" features a close-up of a woman's face in blue tones. The title is in yellow script, and a tagline asks, "Is it worth falling in love if you have to keep it a secret?"

The book cover for "I Kissed Shara Wheeler" by Casey McQuiston shows a woman's face partially obscured by a pink envelope with red lips. A "Stonewall Honor Book" seal is visible.
