Monicap's Last 100 Books by Woman

I had to go all the way back to 2018 for this! I excluded Animorphs books which made up most of my reading during peak pandemic 😅. Also, the top three books are current reads. My favorites from this list are: Written in the Stars (which I'm confident saying even though I've not finished it), Tomorrow & Tomorrow & Tomorrow, The Fifth Season, The Story of Jane, Jane Eyre, Stay With Me, Song of Achilles, Frankenstein, Goose Girl & Alanna (which I did read twice over this period), Everything I Never Told You, Handmaid's Tale, The Sasquatch Hunter's Almanac, The Carrying, The Golem & the Jinni, and Wives and Daughters! I did NOT enjoy The Essex Serpent, The Pisces, Wuthering Heights, Spindlers, Hopeless, My Year of Rest & Relaxation, or House of Hunger.
