My Top 5 Reads of 2012

Here is my top 5 books of 2012.

There are many other books I really enjoyed this year but these 5 just stand out to me.

Time Between Us - Tamara Ireland Stone

This is one of those books where I was able to really connect to and like the characters, those are my favourite sort of books! A gripping book which had me addicted from page one. 
Quote from my review :
The storyline along with the characters definitely add up to make this a great well rounded book with an addictive storyline as well as great characters. Time Between Us is a sweet and heart warming book about a romance which possibly shouldn't have existed but is unmistakably right. I would not have known this was a debut book for Tamara if I hadn't read it, I hope she brings more books out soon, I will definitely be reading them.

Divergent - Veronica Roth

Doesn't everyone love this book? I was a bit behind on reading this, everyone was raving about it and I still hadn't read it. I soon realised I was really missing out and picked it up. 

I straight away fell in love with it. This is why I love books so much, because they can take you to another world, a world you have never even considers but straight away become absorbed in. Veronica, you are a very creative and talented author and I am so glad I read all the positive reviews which lead me to read this book. 

Quote from my review :

I didn't actually write a review for this one. Sorry!

Trafficked - Sophie Hayes 

This is totally out of my 'comfort zone' when it comes to reading. I never usually read or can get into non fiction which is a true story. This was completely different. It was written in the way a story is wrote and that made it much easier for me to get into. It's a gripping and heart breaking read. I had to keep reminding myself it's real. 

Quote from my review :

I can’t imagine how much strength it must have taken for Sophie to relive this dreadful part of her life but because of her bravery her raw emotion came across so clearly in the book that I just hope and pray that more people read Sophie’s story and more people become aware that this can happen to anyone.

Pushing The Limits  - Katie McGarry
I have to admit I never expected to fall in love with this book like I did. It was one of those amazing books which pleasantly surprised me. It even had me in tears at one point which shows how amazing it is. 
Quote from my review :
Pushing The Limits is both a heart warming but heart wrenching book at the same time. So many emotions are ‘flying’ around at the same time I found myself feeling the emotions that the characters were feeling and even crying at a certain scene. Such a beautiful story about two well developed characters whose stories will have you feeling so many different feelings.

My Top Read/s of 2012! 

I am kinda cheating in putting all three here but I can't choose between them! Nope, you won't make me! You understand ;)
