My absolute favourite was Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. Amazing story, beautifully written and very moving. The runner-up was Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer.

Other favourites were:
March by Geraldine Brooks
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas
Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman

My least favourite were Malinche by Laura Esquivel and The Good Girl by Mary Kubica.
The biggest letdown was The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. I just thought I would absolutely love it and I didn't. Good book, but I didn't really move me the way I expected it to.

Worst:

Second Draft – C.M. Seabrook
Animal Farm and 1984 – George Orwell
Turtles All the Way Down – John Green
Sleeping Giants – Sylvain Neuvel (second to rest got better so far..)
Midnight and the Meaning of Love & A Moment of Silence: Midnight III – Sister Souljah (this wasn’t need to have sseries at all bec it was really pointless to drag longer.. )
Nappily Ever After – Trisha R. Thomas (this book was.. Um.. Bad, but I take Netflix film over this book bec in the book, she’s too needy and wondering why it went wrong including I hate how she beg him to take her back.. I was like girl no, he’s not worth it..)
Inked Armour – Helena Hunting (why the first book was so good, but this one was so trash.. Sigh.. I have so many things to said both characters, but I hate both in this.. )

The Hating Game is one of my fave contemporary book.

Same. I loved it. It was so funny and romantic.

But yes, everyone will always have a different view to things.

I agree.. I mean, it would be boring if we all love same thing, which I like how you guys and I have different taste when it comes to book, but as long we respect that..
