We are already going into 4 months of the year, so I thought it would be fun today to share some of my favourite reads so far. As of the 7th of April, I have read 72 books. I’m kind of shocked about but I have just constantly been reading. I’ve had some highs and some lows in terms of what I’ve read. But overall it’s been a pretty good year so far.
While it’s no surprise everything I have been reading has been romance. Which I am loving. I have also been trying to read as many books from authors that are attending events that I am going to. So it’s been a pretty fun year so far.
But let’s get into here. Here are some of the books that I am already loving in 2023. As always these are in no order. Please also check trigger and content warnings for each book.
The Kraken’s Sacrifice (A Deal With a Demon, #2) by Katee Robert: I knew that I was going to like this one before I even picked it up. And I wasn’t disappointed. This is a mix of sweet and sexy tied with a very emotional story. This is a monster romance that hits the spot.
Where Good Girls Go To Die (Good Girls, #1) by Holly Renee: I wasn’t expecting to like this one as much as I did, but right from the start I was drawn in. This was more of a slower burn than I thought it was going to be. It’s not slow, but it takes a little more time. Which I liked.
The Wrong Bride (The Windsors, #1) by Catharina Maura: This had been on my tbr for a while and I picked it up because I’m seeing Catharina this month! I loved reading this book. It was exactly what I was looking for and it was delivered. I’m so excited to read the rest of the series and even more books from Catharina.
Final Offer (Dreamland Billionaires, #3) by Lauren Asher: This is no doubt one of my favourite books of the year. It’s my favourite of the series. This was sexy, sweet and oh-so emotional. The romance was hot and heavy, but also slow and sexy at the same time. It was nice seeing these two fall in love again.
Death Wish (Reaper Reborn, #1) by Harper A. Brooks: I hadn’t heard much about this book before I picked it up recently. But I ended up really enjoying it. It wasn’t as smutty as I was expecting, but I still had a fantastic time reading it.
Maniac (Necessary Evils, #7) by Onley James: I’ve been waiting for this book since when I started this series and I wasn’t disappointed. Maniac is full of angst, smut and lots of violence. But it was a fantastic end to the series.
Heartless (Chestnut Springs, #2) by Elsie Silver: This is actually a re-read. I read this late last year, but with the new book coming out I wanted to read the first and third book for the first time. I ended up loving this one just as much as the first time, a grumpy single dad is what I need.
And there we go. Those are some of my favourite reads so far this year. From new to me authors to some I already love. I’ve already had a pretty good year and cannot wait to see what the rest of the year brings. Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? Are you planning on reading any of these? What are some of the books that you have loved this year.
