Below are all the books I’ve given 5 stars to since I’ve been on Goodreads. The date is when I added them to Goodreads. Many of the books from 2007 and early 2008 I read years before. I’ve put a ** next to books that I considered the best I read that year or special favorites read years ago. However, I recommend all these books unreservedly.
