According to Goodreads, I read 83 books on this past revolution around the sun. Of those, here are my 17 favorite in no particular order. To be clear, these are not “THE TOP 17 BOOKS OF THE YEAR!!” or anything like that. They’re simply the books I liked most of the ones I read. Some were published this year, some were not. (If you’re interested in seeing all of the books, here ya go.)

Want to win one of these glorious books? Here’s how.
