Ok. The first thing you need to know is that before I made this list, I literally spent over an hour just agonizing over how on earth I was to choose and list my top favs.
Do I pick a Top 10? Impossible! Only 10?? As if! … okay, so then I tried Top 20. Nope, still not enough. Then I tried to make it ‘match’, Top 12 of 2012.. Top 22 of 2012… still too few… ok, fine, Top 25?? Top 30? Ok, now we’re just getting excessive… *sigh* Do I choose the top books read in 2012, or the top books published in 2012??
Eventually I gave up. I stopped counting. I don’t know how many books are on this list and I never want to count. The only thing I know and the only thing that matters is that each and every one of them are on my favorites list. They are ALL beautiful books that make my heart race, have a beautiful love story and a happy ending. That’s what I spend my time seeking. That is the heart of my reading addiction – the need to find these books, to read them, love them, and finally share them with everyone I know… But, considering I have only been running the blog for less than a year ( I started it in April 2012 – feel like its been so much longer though!), I decided to choose to list my fav books that I read in 2012. Books that left a mark on my heart in one way or another.
So, without further ado, here’s my list of Favorite Books Read in 2012 🙂

I agree with the the majority of this list, however I’m not 100% sold on Kristen Ashley. Where her books are very entertaining and always have a great plot there always seem to be something missing for me. Hands down my FAV is the Thoughtless series S.C. Stephens, then…. Beautiful Disaster, Seduction and Snacks, Fifty Shades…, On Dublin Street, Wallbanger, Hopeless, Lux series (worst cliffhanger EVER), Covenant series. Anything by Jillian Dodd, Jennifer L. Aremont, or S.C Stephens. Love love love this blog and all the reviews!
Karese Blackwell says
My favs in particular order are:
‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ Trilogy by EL James
‘Slammed’ and ‘Point of Retreat’ by Colleen Hoover
‘Beautiful Disaster’ by Jamie McGuire
‘Easy’ by Tammara Webber
‘Lengths’ by Liz Reinhardt and Steph Campbell
‘Flat-Out Love’ by Jessica Park
‘Safe with Me’ by Shaina Richmond
‘Bared to You’ and ‘Reflected in You’ by Syliva Day
‘Down to You’ by M. Leighton
‘The Secret of Ella & Micha’ by Jessica Sorensen
‘The Coincedence of Callie & Kayden’ by Jessica Sorensen
‘When we Collide’ by A.L. Jackson
‘The Sea of Tranquility’ by Katja Millay
‘White Trash Beautiful’ by Teresa Mummert
‘The Edge of Never’ by J.A. Redmerski (this may be my #1 pick)
I just started reading for pleasure/enjoyment this past July after a dear friend of mine introduced me to the ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ trilogy. Little did I know at the time she was gifting me something that was missing in my life and I didn’t even realize it. I read every night and any other chance I get each day. I love to read, it is the one thing I can do that is just for me, although I’m pretty sure my husband reaps some of the benefits too, considering the type of books I read 🙂 Since July I have read 50 books! I’ve read so many great books, but those listed above are my top favs. I have a ton more still to read on my TBR list and I’m getting ready to add more to it from your favs list.Thanks for sharing!
Happy Reading 🙂

“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.”
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
The above quote by John Green sums up how I feel about The Bronze Horseman trilogy, which definitely tops my list. I read them upon seeing your 10* reviews. I didn’t read them until after I finished reading the books though so as not to see spoilers 🙂

Flat-out Love by Jessica Park
The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay

Nycee says
I LOVE the list! Every book I have read this year has come from your blog! I got started with the Fifty Shades book and it went from there. I loved all of the books that you recommened, but if I had to only pick one I would have to say with out a doubt it would be “Forbidden”. I know, I know. It tore me up so much emotionally, and I just wanted to crawl out of myself after reading that, but it was such a great book, and it stayed with me since reading it. I have never felt so strongly about a book, and I’ve read hundreds. I can’t thank you enough for recommending that book! NOW, if I had to pick a good love story book, then I would say my favorite of the year was…ANYTHING written by R.L. Mathewson! I love her books! Just love them! She is really a great author and I can read anything that she writes! OH! And I cannot forget to mention “Gabriel’s Inferno” and “Gabriel’s Rapture” by Sylvain Reynard. I just loved me some Professor Emerson! All in all, your list is great! I read mostly all of those books and series! Still reading! Thank you!

I love your 2012 favourite books (almost the same as mine !), and for 2013, I really think you should read Me Before You by Jojo Moyes …. It’s not really the kind of book you long for but I’m 100% sure you will love it !
Erin says
I love your blog! It has helped me find wonderful authors and books that are fan-freakin-tastic..There is just so much to look through and I may have overlooked this but have you read “Release Me” by J. Kenner? I was wondering your take on it if you have…
Vanessa Martins says
I’m having a lot of fun here at your blog. It became my source #1 for good recommendations. From this list, I’ve read only 50 Shades Trilogy, Crossfire Series, Up In The Air Trilogy and Backstage Pass. Excluding Backstage Pass, the others are on my Top Shelf of Live – Forever. Grey, Cross and Mr. Beautiful will forever be on my podium.
And considering your recommendations, I have just bought Fall from Grace and Saving Grace, Sweet Gum Tree, Mighty Storm and The Edge of Never, all of the with great prices at Amazon in Brazil.
Cheers and keep the great work
