My Favourite 2015 ......Book


So 2015 is nearly over and I thought I would choose my favourite book of the year.  It was easier said than done, I have read a lot of excellent books this year but what makes a book really stand out is when it remains lodged in my thoughts for days after.

The book that had this effect on me in 2015 was.....



Awarded 5 stars, even before I had opened the cover this book ooozed something different.  It had a hell of a hype surrounding it and not being in possession of an ARC of it I impatiently awaited my paperback from Amazon.

It is like nothing I have ever read before (click on the pic to read my review) and this incredible story of love and loss set within the vastness of space totally blew my mind!

My only worry is will book 2 be as good?

NOTABLE MENTIONS

So what was your book of 2015?

    Isn't hard to pick just one?? I just got Illuminae and can't wait to get to it. I live Furiously Happy. Armada is one I need to get to.

    I LOVED Illuminae and I'm excited for the sequel. I hope it's as good. I still need to read Furiously Happy!

    Illuminae was pretty dang good... and I saw a vid on Youtube about the book tour and they announced the title of the 2nd book. It's out there somewhere... great pick!

    Ooo sounds interesting! I had one like that this year as well. Lots of great reads but one was a jaw dropper compared to all of the others. Happy reading in 2016!

    Those are some books I have been seeing a lot of people love! I can't believe you were able to choose a top one - I would have found it so difficult! But I think it goes to show how wonderful of a book it must be as well ^.^
