Five Stars– Five Books – My Top Favorite Reads of the Last Five Years

Five Stars - Five Books - Favorite Reads

I should have been more attentive to our list of favorite books over the years and, unfortunately, wasn’t.

It seems, however, that you can pretty much track trends like you do poodle skirts or hairdos (or not), so thought I’d take a look back and see how the favorites have evolved.

These books cover a range of genres from contemporary fiction to historical fiction. (Pic link to my reviews.)

So, hmmm, interesting:

The Wager by David Grann

The Women by Kristin HannahLessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

The Perfect Ending by Ron KaufmanWhere the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

Have you noticed a trend in your reading choices? Not sure I see a pattern here, but I’d be willing to bet you read at least one of these! I haven’t looked at how my 2025 year shakes out yet—but that’s coming.
