Here's the second of the end of the year lists - My favorite novels of 2019. The best fiction books I’ve read in 2019. Most of those, 6 out of 11, were released in 2019, 5 other books were released earlier but were so phenomenal that I would do us all a disservice if those were omitted.
Please let me know what your favorite books were in 2019.
