Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Best Books I Read in 2021



Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

This week's topic is typical to round out the year. When I used to read more books than I have time for now, I actually gave out virtual awards. I might get back to that one day, but right now, I am just glad to have surpassed my Goodreads goal of 40 books. I know some people don't count children's books or books under a certain page count, but I always have, so I don't feel like I am cheating. I will finish at least one more book before year's end. 

Top Ten Best Books I Read in 2021













Probably no surprise that mysteries, suspense, police procedurals, and true crime make up a good portion of this list. Here are a few honorable mentions:






What are some of the great books you read this year? Do we share any of the same books?

I almost put Karen White's book on my list because I thought it was such a great read. I am actually reading the first spin-off book right now. I'm barely into it, but already love it. It's on NetGalley, if you use that.

Thanks, Aj. Wishing you the best in 2022.

Kimber, I can't believe I didn't start reading Murder, She Wrote books until this year. Here's hoping we both find great reads in 2022.

Deanna, I didn't know there was a spinoff book. Thanks for the heads up.

Lydia, it was definitely a good reading year. Happy New Year!

Thanks, Anna. Hope you get a chance to check them out.
