Best Books of the Year (So Far)

I missed participating in the Top Ten Tuesday topic in June about the best books of the year that I've read so far, but it was one that I did want to write a post about! So I thought why not do a post now about my favorite books of the year (so far) that I've read! :)

Here we go! Twelve of my favorite books (so far) this year!

(I'm not including picture books in this post, because I have a plan for a later post including them. I'm also not including graphic novels, because I'm thinking about doing a post about them, too.)
