Happy New Year! Looking back at 2020, reading was my way of coping with the pandemic and I ended up reading 155 books! There were so many great books that I enjoyed but I’ve managed to narrow down my favourite 20 books of 2020. All these books made me feel something, whether joy, fear or sorrow, in a year where numbness was the default. The list is made of new releases and backlist books, and a mix of horror and other genres. A huge thank you to the authors and publishers for review copies. So without further ado here are my favourite books of 2020. If you haven’t read these books yet, I hope you’ll consider adding them to your list for 2021! This post contains affiliate links.
