Favorite Books of 2024
It's never easy for me to rate books with star ratings. But I can find lots of books that I enjoyed enough to share them. So here are 24 of my favorite books from last year. After looking over my reading journal, I chose 7 fantasy novels, 6 classics, 4 mysteries, 3 contemporary literature, 2 middle grades, 1 sci-fi and 1 non-fiction.
