I started doing a monthly post of my four favorite books on Instagram and decided why not post it here as well? Read below for my four favorite books for January and February 2020!

My Four Favorites February 2020

Well, there’s a little of something for everyone here! Whether you want issues, family drama, a paranormal read, diversity, feminist or LGBTQ themes, YA or adult, or just a sweet and fluffy book – I have you covered!

Undercover Bromance (and also Bromance Book Club, a January pick) both by Lyssa Kay Adams and published by Berkley.

These are for you if you like:

• adult romance
• a book club filled with funny guys, some hilariously clueless about love and others who are more enlightened …. after reading romance
• a second chance at love plot (Bromance Book Club). I guess you could call Undercover Bromance hate to love, but then again Liv (the main character) sort of hates everyone.

Read my review of Undercover Bromance here and my review of Bromance Book Club here. Want more rom com? Check out my full listing of recent rom coms, rated by steam level, humor level, and tropes.

When We Were Magic by Sarah Gailey is another recent favorite of mine. I’ve been feeling ready for paranormal romance again!

This one is for you if you love:

• friendship stories
• books with coming of age themes
• books with diverse characters, including queer characters
• suspense – I thought this one was suspenseful, since the book starts with an accidental murder

Tweet Cute by Emma Lord was a super cute and fluffy YA romance

Try this one if you’re in the mood for:

• A YA romance with a Romeo and Juliet vibe – these two kids are from families who own warring restaurants
• Descriptions of delicious food

---

Long Bright River by Liz Moore is a literary mystery I just finished.

Check this one out if you enjoy:

• police procedurals
• mysteries with a more literary writing style
• themes of addiction and troubled families

My Four Favorite Books January 2020

Since I didn’t post these on my blog in January, I’m going to highlight two of my picks for that month:

Conviction by Denise Mina

You can read my full review of Conviction here.

This was an odd one, but I do like odd books with an edge. If you liked Where’d You Go Bernadette, then check this one out!

Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson

This was a fun YA mystery. You can read my full review of Good Girl’s Guide to Murder here. Check this one out if you like:

• an intrepid teenage girl investigator
• true crime/podcast themes (this one seems a bit inspired by Serial)
