I see why you had to pick runner's up since I wouldn't be able to pick just one. <br /><br />Gone Girl I keep seeing that in my shops and I think I read your review... Hmm. Maybe have to pick up that one. <br /><br />Divergent and the Heather Wells series are two books that I want to get around to next year. <br /><br />I think moving out of your comfort show is a great thing to do and glad you guys enjoyed it. <br /><br />Lovely sum up!Livvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17441931016080817720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-6143490365548047722012-12-29T16:38:05.265+00:002012-12-29T16:38:05.265+00:00Jasprit, I knew you liked Gone Girl, but I hadn...Jasprit, I knew you liked Gone Girl, but I hadn't realized you liked it that much! I definitely need to make time for it soon. And OMG, Lucian and Phaedra are my favorite couple as well, with maybe Deuce and Fade from Outpost as runner-ups. <br />As always, great post, ladies.Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-14011149793816556802012-12-28T04:58:01.341+00:002012-12-28T04:58:01.341+00:00Awesome awesome post, ladies!

I love them too! They are such a perfect couple and YES, it did take them forever to get together, but I was so happy when they finally did.<br />Ah Rachel! It seems like Mac and Barrons really did rub on you! ;) Well, it's completely understandable!<br />I have This Is Not a Test, so I'm going to have to read that book because it's your favorite read of this year! Also, I've been seeing a lot of Gone Girl. Can you believe I haven't read it yet? <br />Rachel, thanks for listing Almost up there. I've never heard of that book before but it seems so poignant. I'm going to try it out soon.<br />Great list, you guys! I'm sure you had quite the time deciding on your books! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-53547870034117202832012-12-28T01:53:38.863+00:002012-12-28T01:53:38.863+00:00I love what you're sharing!

Apparently I've been missing out on so many! I need to get my hands on THIS IS NOT A TEST, BITTERSWEET, THE STORYTELLER. ALMOST seems like a lovely, emotional read as well. Great picks, and thanks for sharing, Jasprit & Rachel! :)Jen (Books and Other Happy Ever Afters)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13191886477394054542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-62026539934005437332012-12-27T18:52:41.052+00:002012-12-27T18:52:41.052+00:00Fantastic post guys!

Jas, T...Fantastic post guys! Where do I start? :D<br /><br />Jas, THRONE OF GLASS! I'm not much of a fantasy girl either but Sarah J. Maas' novel blew me away too! And I'm so glad Celaena is your favourite female mc of the year! We need more kick-ass characters like her! And I'm very eager to try Bittersweet - sounds perfect for a rainy day! And wasn't Dash and Lily's Book of Dares such fun?<br /><br />Rachel! Firstly, I'm so glad you loved Easy so much because it's near the top of my TBR pile and I CAN'T WAIT to devour it :D And yes, NOAH HUTCHINS! I adored that bad boy!!! Whoop whoop for Kami from Unspoken! Her wit and humour had me giggling non-stop!<br /><br />Fabulous post, thank you for sharing your favourites of 2012! Hopefully 2013 will be just as much of a success for you both <3Beverleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03592918949547677731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-27930182501274668262012-12-27T18:26:00.718+00:002012-12-27T18:26:00.718+00:00gahh!! you guys are making me super guilty for not...gahh!! you guys are making me super guilty for not reading some of these awesome books.

Do we need to even SAY anything else? ;) I just adored so many of the books you two picked this year and even better, you gave me some recommendations as well! Chasing Brooklyn and The Storyteller are definitely on my TBR Shelf now and Jasprit, I am SO THRILLED that you added Dairy Queen on here as a mention! ;) Seriously though, I can't wait for Part Two of your recap now! :D Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-64782038840836413462012-12-27T15:17:10.896+00:002012-12-27T15:17:10.896+00:00JERICHO BARRONS RACHEL!!!! *dies* That series will...JERICHO BARRONS RACHEL!!!! *dies* That series will forever top my list of favorites ever. I couldn't have loved ICED any more if I'd tried, I'm really enjoying Dani, Christian and Ryodan, but I'm beyond excited to get back to Mac and Barrons after her trilogy is over.<br /><br />And Jasprit, I completely agree with you on Confessions of an Angry Girl being a hidden gem - I didn't expect to love that one as much as I did!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-32401473127148659832012-12-27T10:47:39.714+00:002012-12-27T10:47:39.714+00:00Ha, I love it how Rachel keeps on mentioning the F...Ha, I love it how Rachel keeps on mentioning the Fever series.

Jasprit, I agree with you about going to Tris' world, although it would be really dangerous I'd still love to visit and know what faction I'd be placed in. I kind of feel like I might be a Divergent myself - I don't really see myself fitting into one particular faction. Four would have to be one of my absolute favourite book boyfriends. I can't wait to start <i>Dash and Lily's Book of Dares</i>, it looks like such a fun, cute read! Rachel, do let me know if you happen to stop by London one day. ;) Thanks for sharing, ladies, I can't wait to see Part Two! :)Aa'Ishahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06034750057312410821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-48511806985880563872012-12-27T05:42:20.373+00:002012-12-27T05:42:20.373+00:00Love this post!:) This adds a few books to my tbr ...Love this post!:) This adds a few books to my tbr pileDivergent Gryffindorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18411348768067712337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-7890721610724377982012-12-27T04:55:20.895+00:002012-12-27T04:55:20.895+00:00Ladies, there are no words to explain how much I a...Ladies, there are no words to explain how much I adore this post! <br /><br />Rachel, The Piper's Son was one of the most heart wrenching, brilliantly rendered books I've read EVER. But it is Melina Marchetta, after all. ;) Chasing Brooklyn is on my TBR list and thanks to you and Sam, I'd love to get my hands on The Storyteller! And yes, Kami is a hilarious, charming girl whose voice I fell in love with while reading Unspoken. :)<br /><br />P.S. BARRONS IS MIIIIINE.<br /><br />Jasprit, The Assassin's Curse was way out of my comfort zone (traditional/high fantasy is normally not my cup of cocoa) but I ended up really liking it too! Also, This Is Not a Test was a stellar, completely brilliant novel. :) Courtney Summers is easily one of my newly discovered fave authors. :) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-85484776152659185992012-12-27T02:32:38.819+00:002012-12-27T02:32:38.819+00:00SO many awesome books, you two!

I love Four to pieces, he is definitely one of my favorite fictional guys of all time. Along with Noah from Pushing the Limits! He had such a raw side that I loved reading about. I also love Kami from Unspoken. Her character is just so quirky and different, which made reading from her POV so enjoyable. <br /><br />Fantastic picks you two! I can't wait to see what you guys picked for Part 2! =)Aneeqahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13352395407424623520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-41757645424308982232012-12-27T01:53:25.481+00:002012-12-27T01:53:25.481+00:00some wonderful books!
