2013 was a tough year for me as a reader. I ended up only reading forty books (due to family sickness, death, more sickness and pregnancy...), which made sifting through them for this post rather easy. In my personal opinion, the seven books which made my list completely outshine the rest by far. There are other books by some of my favorite authors in my TBR pile which I'm sure would have been on this list as well... if I'd read them... but oh well. I'm sure they'll be on the list next year.
