Top 10 Best Books of 2016

I've read a record-breaking 140 books this year! Here is my Top 10 Best Books of 2016 list:


10. 'Adulthood is a Myth' (Best comedy. So funny, and so relatable)

9. 'The Incredible Adventures of Cinnamon Girl' (Incredibly touching, funny, adorable and sweet contemporary YA)

8. 'Wonder Woman: The True Amazon' (Best 'Wonder Woman' comic I've read so far)

7. 'Princess Princess Ever After' (Best children's book. This is the future, and it makes the future look hopeful and positive)

6. 'Zodiac Starforce' (Best graphic novel. A great love letter to Magical Girl fans, with or without nostalgia or a zeitgeist view)

5. 'Carol' (Best classic. A mature, non-fantasy 'Princess Princess Ever After'. Wonderfully well-written)

4. 'The Female of the Species' (Best YA. A tragedy that gives YA a good name. A rape culture destroyer)

3. 'We Should All Be Feminists' (Best non-fiction feminist text. Anyone can and should read this little book adapted from a TED Talks speech)

2. 'the princess saves herself in this one' (Best poetry. Agonizingly sad yet beautiful modern poetry. A life changer, if not a complete trauma-tizer. Another abuse and rape culture destroyer) 

1. 'The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate' (Simply outstanding. Fucking gorgeous. Best book I've read this year, no doubt)
