I cannot believe that 2021 is already over, and that 2021 turned out to be just as bad, if not worse, than 2020. But at least I got to read some great books last year. These are my top five books of 2021:

5. The Rose Code by Kate Quinn – another riveting WWII mystery by Quinn. I really enjoyed this one!

4. Matrix by Lauren Groff – completely not what I was expecting from Groff, but this novel was mesmerizing.

3. Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr – fantastic novel with three intersecting timelines, this one will be a reread.

2. Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro – I will never forget Klara’s story. The world does not deserve her.

And number 1 is…

Fight Night by Miriam Toews! I cannot believe how much I enjoyed reading this novel. I actually laughed out loud, which does not happen that often when I read. Toews is a great writer!

There are reviews for all five of these books on my blog. Hope I have inspired you to read some of them!
