1. Turtles All The Way Down by John Green
I preordered this book a while ago, so naturally I had to read it as soon as it arrived. I have read another one of John Green's books and enjoyed it. Like his other novels, this brings diverse characters together in an interesting plot-line. I also appreciated the way Green talks about mental illness in this book. If you've been looking into this, I would definitely recommend it.
2. Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu
I purchased this book after watching a review on YouTube and I was not disappointed. The main character starts this booklet series in her high school to address the sexism in her school. I think this book is really empowering for young girls and even though I graduated high school a while ago, I still enjoyed this book.
3. Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalco
Most of the time stories that have to do with Jack the Ripper are told from a man's perspective, so I was happy to see one from a woman's. The main character is an apprentice with her uncle and helps with the autopsies of the women slain by the ripper. This is an interesting take on the ripper and I would recommend it to anyone who loves a good murder mystery.
4. Hunting Prince Dracula by Kerri Maniscalco
This is the sequel to Stalking Jack the Ripper. We follow our characters to a school where students practice autopsies and learn about human biology. Some strange deaths take place and our main character finds herself caught up in the middle of it. I enjoyed this book as much as the first and would definitely recommend.
5. Trick or Treat Murder by Leslie Meier
This was a reread for me that I haven't read since high school. I didn't remember anything about this book, so it was like I was reading it for the first time again. This is a true murder mystery that anyone who is a fan of the genre would enjoy.
6. The Silence of Ghosts by Jonathan Aycliffe
This is a book I would not recommend reading in the middle of the night by yourself. Seriously, don't do. It is a classic case of someone moving to a new house and strange things start occurring. I really enjoyed this book and found it appropriate for the Halloween season.
7. Past Crimes By Glen Erik Hamilton
This is a book I received in a subscription service. I didn't think I would like this very much, but I flew through it. Our main character comes home after being gone for the Army for a decade and finds that his grandpa has been murdered. He starts to investigate his grandpa's past and what lead him to be killed.
8. The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
This book is one that was recommended to me by multiple people. This gives me Moulin Rouge vibes in the sense that it creates a world that is within our own, but is also it's own. I really enjoyed how this book is written and cannot recommend it enough.
9. The 3rd Woman by Jonathan Freedland
This is a murder mystery in which we follow a journalist whose sister was murdered. At first everyone thinks that it is not a murder at all, but a drug overdose. She starts to see similarities between a few deaths and starts to investigate. Definitely a good read if you like murder mysteries.
10. Eternal Sonata by Jamie Metzl
This book takes place in the near future, but technology has really changed. Some scientists end up missing and our main character gets himself mixed in with it. I read this book in a day, so I clearly liked it.
11. Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth
This is the same author of the Divergent series and I really liked those books, so I had to pick this one up. This gives me Star Wars vibes because this world has different planets and societies that have their own cultures. They have something called "the current" that reminds me of the force and everyone has something called a currentgift. There is a sequel coming out next year and I can't wait to read it.
12. Sabriel by Garth Nix
I had started this book a while ago and never finished it, so I thought it was finally time to read it. This is the first book in a trilogy and I definitely need to check out the other ones after reading this book. Sabriel is a necromancer whose father goes missing and she must travel to the Old Kingdom to try and save him. If you're a fan of fantasy and magic, you would really enjoy this book.
13. Shopaholic & Sister by Sophie Kinsella
This is one of the books in the Confessions of a Shopaholic series. I am trying to finish this series by the end of the year and I have been enjoying it so far. It is light hearted and I can get through them pretty quickly. They are different than the movie, but I still really enjoy them.
14. Pretty Little Secrets by Sara Shepard
This is another series I have been trying to finish before 2018. This is the last book I had to read in the series and I overall like this series. I did watch the tv series and I actually prefer the books. They are different than the show, but I think they honestly make more sense. If you watched the show, you know what I'm talking about.
