Best Books of 2024

 Today's Top Ten Tuesday is all about the best books of the year. It is impossible to narrow down to just ten but I will do my best. This was a pretty decent reading year for me. I read a lot more books than I anticipated. Since I was pregnant and had a baby this year, I figured I wouldn't get much reading time in. Thankfully I was able to read quite a few books amidst all of the life changes. I also wanted to read more stories that were out of my "norm", specifically more fantasy, non-fiction, and sci-fi. I think I did okay with that goal but I do hope to continue to read more of a variety in 2025. 

In no particular order, here are my top ten reads for 2024.

Top Ten Tuesday: Books to Read During a Storm

Top Ten Tuesday! 

Books to read during a storm. I just picked the books that came to mind. They are all different but I leaned more towards atmospheric of dark and gothic or mysterious. A few are just cozy reads. Enjoy! 

 

This is a fun time travel read. 

One of my favorite's by this author. Mysterious. 

Delightful mystery with a fun setting. 

I love this book and it is perfect for a stormy day! 

Gothic and unexpected love story. 

One of my very favorite novels by this author. 

A story that sticks with you long after the last page. 

One of my favorites. 

This book is creepily delightful. 

Cozy winter read. Short read but so good.

My Thoughts

This really is a very nice gift set! It comes in a sturdy box that is well packaged in a gift box. While there are many gift sets that you can choose from I was excited to smell this candle! Typically I am not a candle person but since this one is soy and so simple yet pretty I wanted to check it out. It is an interesting combination of scents so I wasn't sure if I would like it but I actually REALLY love how this candle smells! It is so pretty that I really hate to burn it which is also why it makes a great gift! The bracelet is pretty but not as high of quality in my opinion. The gold tag makes it worth wearing and adds a little something to an otherwise pretty basic bracelet. 

All that to say I had no idea Abide from Guideposts sold gift sets and I am pleasantly surprised! It can be challenging to come up with a good gift like this for birthdays, holidays, etc. but you could order one of these and it is pre-wrapped and ready to go! Thoughtful and convenient!
