Top Ten Tuesday – Favorite Books of 2017

toptentuesday

Hello lovelies! This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is – Favorite Books of 2017. I read a lot of really fantastic books this year, so it’s going to be difficult to pick just 10. I was also going to wait until beginning of next year to do a post about all my bookish favorites this and that cause there’s still 19 days left in 2017. I might even read something absolutely amazing in those days and change my mind… but I figured, I’ll make a list now then change it up (if I need to) and elaborate/explain why they’re my favorites in a later post.

So without further ado, here are my top ten favorite books of 2017 as of today and listed in no particular order.

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly event hosted by  The Broke and the Bookish.

Genres: Science Fiction, Young Adult

Meimi Archer is living the perfect life. Too bad it isn’t hers.

On my seventeenth birthday, I wake up in the hospital to find I just survived a sketchy but terrible accident. My parents stand by my bedside—both are beautiful, wealthy, and super-nice. They tell me that once I leave the hospital, I’ll attend the prestigious ECHO Academy, where I’ll churn out equations for the government along with my mega-smart peers.

So, I’m living the perfect life.

Then why does everything feel all wrong?

My parents, my house and even ECHO Academy…none of it fits. Plus, what’s up with Thorne, my brooding yet yummy classmate who keeps telling me I need to remember my true past, which seems to have included a lot of us kissing? That’s one thing I’d really like to remember, except for the fact that I’m pretty sure Thorne is hiding a ton of nasty secrets of his own, including the fact that he may not be from this world. But considering how my own past seems alien to me, it’s not like I can judge. Plus, Thorne has dimples. That’s a problem.

And worst of all, why does it feel so yucky to work on these calculations for the government? It’s all supposed to be part of ECHO, but my heart tells me that I’m helping something truly terrible come to pass. Thorne seems to think that kissing him again will release my real memories.

Maybe it’s time to pucker up.
