Welcome to the BC Awards!!! Carole and I will be sharing some of our favorites of the year! We decided to shake it up a bit with some extra categories!
(edit: Yes I wanted to mention a few books so I had to create some categories for them ;) These are my 10 best of the year + a special mention. Hearstrikers count as one cos I just can not choose which was best..perhaps book 3?)
First, Blodeuedd will give my bests of the year!

Love seeing your lists, ladies!
I enjoyed the Ilona Andrews and Carolyn Brown on your list, Carole. I bought the first two Heartstrikers, Blodeuedd. Looks like I need When Dimple Met Rishi since it made both your lists.
Have a happy 2019 full of great new books, Carole!
