Hi everyone! I’m back with March’s best of the decade! I have absolutely no clue what I was reading then so I’m excited to see!
Unfortunately, I didn’t have Goodreads before March 2013 so I will be going from February 2014 until February 2020 and voting on which book was my favourite of that month, and then deciding on an overall winner!
2014
As usual my documentation for 2014 is awful but this is what I read:
Possessed by Kate Cann
Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
Girl, Missing by Sophie McKenzie
Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
Consumed by Kate Cann
My favourite of these is definitely Fangirl!
2015
City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare
City of Heavenly Fire by Cassandra Clare
Insurgent by Veronica Roth
The Bane Chronicles by Cassandra Clare
Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
Conspiracy Girl by Sarah Alderson
The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin
Mailboy by Jasmine Rose (Wattpad)
This is a tricky one but I love The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer!
2016
The Selection by Kiera Cass
The Elite by Kiera Cass
The One by Kiera Cass
The Heir by Kiera Cass
Happily Ever After by Kiera Cass
Heroes by Robert Cormier
The Eye of Minds by James Dashner
I never even realised I read The Selection before the final book was out! But The Selection has to be my favourite!
2017
The Last Beginning by Lauren James
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver
Lost Girl by Chanda Hahn
Did I Mention I Love You? by Estelle Maskame
Did I Mention I Need You? by Estelle Maskame
Did I Mention I Miss You? by Estelle Maskame
Caraval by Stephenie Garber
Wires and Nerve by Marissa Meyer
I love the cast of The Lunar Chronicles and think Iko is such a fantastic character so Wires and Nerve takes this month!
2018
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater
I remember struggling to read these a bit and finding the pacing a bit slow but I think The Raven Boys was my favourite out of these two.
2019
Rebellion by Kass Morgan
The Thousandth Floor by Katherine McGee
The Dazzling Heights by Katherine McGee
The Towering Sky by Katherine McGee
Viper by Bex Hogan
The winner is Viper without a doubt.
2020
The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson
Eight Will Fall by Sarah Harian
House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas
I thought The Unexpected Everything was gonna take 2020 but then I saw I read House of Earth and Blood and knew that was the winner.
There are so many of my favourite books in this post, I adore Viper, Fangirl and the Mara Dyer books. However, I would not be being truthful if I didn’t say that my March book of the decade is….
House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas!!
I love seeing so many of my current favourites on this list! Also the third book in the Viper trilogy is out soon so this has reminded me I need to buy it!
Would you rank my choices differently? Are any of your favourites in my list?
Keep reading,

Highly recommend going back to the Raven Cycle, but I am biased because it is my very favourite series in all of history. Is it bad I’ve never read any Sarah J Maas? I feel like a bad YA fan whenever I mention it!

Yeah, I’m wondering if it was because I was doing my A Levels at that time. I’ve read Call Down the Hawk more recently and adored that one!

A Levels are the best way to remove all your braincells. Ahh if you like Hawk, definitely go back and finish the series! Some of what we see in Hawk is originally in the last couple of TRC books, but from someone else’s perspective. I think they segue really well.

I also loved Fangirl aswell. I think sometimes its nice to have a happy ending.
What were your thoughts on Eleanor and Park? And also Thirteen Reasons Why?

I remember enjoying them when I read them, Thirteen Reasons Why made me cry. But I don’t think I’ve read them since so I can’t really remember much of what happens!

Ah right ok!
I was expecting that book to be a lot more different than it actually was. It’s the first book that didn’t make me cry and i was expecting it as well. Just wasn’t what I thought it would be like
