You've had some great reading this year so far! I felt the same way about This is a Love Story- Jane's POV was my favorite part. And The Compound is on my wildcard favorites list as well! I thought it was outstanding.

The way This is a Love Story was told felt so unique to me. Took a minute to get used to it but wow, how beautiful.

It looks like Left of Forever is the second book in a series...does one have to have read the first book to enjoy Left of Forever? It sounds so good! Thank you for this list! We have similar reading tastes, so I am excited to read some of your favorites!

I haven't read the first in the series! Like most romance series, you meet the characters from the first book in this one, but otherwise it's totally standalone.

Oh good! Those 3 especially are ones that have been really sticking in my mind. The Names and The Compound felt like stories I hadn't read before.

I just finished Left of Forever yesterday and loved it too. I have a few others on my list, including Tilt, which unfortunately keeps getting ousted by other reading obligations. But soon!

Oooh I really enjoyed Tilt, and it's such a fast read, too. Can't wait to hear what you think when you get there!
