Even though 2018 isn’t officially over, I wanted to take the time to do a quick round up of all of the five star reads I’ve come across this year. Most of these have been previously reviewed here (as shown with a link), and if they haven’t, the review will be forthcoming in the next few weeks.
BTW, there are more than 10 here. In no particular order, they are:

- The Circuit – Francisco Jimenez
- We the Animals – Justin Torres
- In My Father’s House: A New View of How Crime Runs in the Family – Fox Butterfield
