In no particular order -
ROOM by Emma Donahue - This was a fabulous book. I watched it walk out the door each day. We literally kept running out of stock. It was on the bestsellers list for months. I kept hearing people say, "OH You have to read this!" I kept thinking, I will probably just not like that book. (I am so fd up sometimes lol) When I finally sat down and read this, I was so disappointed in myself for not reading it soon. It was that good! My favorite part of the book was the differences between the mom's point of view knowing the outside world, but being stuck in this one room and the son who only knows this one room and being scared to imagine anything else. Amazing!!
A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness - so good I may read it again. And I NEVER reread books. It was a wonderful novel that took the everyday and made it extraordinary. It spoke to my intellectual side while pleasing the light summer reader too. And there's two more books in the series!
Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern - A very different type of fiction book that incorporates the mystical with the fantasy while intertwined with a star crossed love story.
YOUR TURN - Tell me your top 3 books!!

Back when Room came out I read reviews on blogs and people said they couldn't put it down. So I bought one for my MIL for Christmas that year and bought one for myself. She never commented on it and I haven't read mine yet. I guess I should read it!
I really want to read The Night Circus. Thanks for the great list!
I have both The Night Circus and A Discovery of Witches on my TBR shelf! I heard great things about them, I<m looking forward to actually reading them.
