My Best Books of 2012
As 2012 draws to a close it is time to reflect on all the wonderful books that have entertained and challenged our minds in 2012…
…and shine a spotlight on my Best Books of 2012.
In 2012 I awarded 7 books my overall 5 star rating here at Booklover Book Reviews. That means they received a 5 / 5 for both The Story and The Writing.

My Best Books of 2012 span a range of genre, from science-fiction through to classics, which makes it very hard to pick one absolute favourite. But, of these, I have found myself recommending The Orphan Master’s Son by Adam Johnson and The Street Sweeper by Elliot Perlman most often.
It has been a high quality reading year for me in 2012, as evidenced by the fact that I also awarded 14 books an overall rating of 4.5 stars:

I note that there are some wonderful books I read in 2012 that I will not get around to publishing reviews for until 2013, such as Talking to the Dead by Harry Bingham and The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. I highly recommend these as well.
