Listed below are the Top 10 best New Adult books I've read this 2012. :)
1. Beautiful Disaster (Beautiful #1) by Jamie McGuire (My review)
Sometimes you just need some craziness in your life. Travis and Abby's relationship is a whirlwind of emotions that you'll both appreciate and dread. You'll find yourself rooting for them and hoping that everything works out fine. I love, love, love this book!
2. On Dublin Street (On Dublin Street #1) by Samantha Young
Oh, Braden! *swoons* Samantha Young creates a book filled with heartache and love, and how you'll find salvation in the most unlikely of places.
3. Fallen Too Far (Fallen Too Far #1) by Abbi Glines (My review)
Insanely sweet and 100% heartbreaking, it's just one of those books you'll love and hate at the same time. Rush = sexy beast sexy tongue-pierced beast
A really cute and easy read for when you need something light. And a hot British guy is never a bad thing.
5. Easy by Tammara Webber
I really liked Easy because it tackles sexual abuse and knowing that you shouldn't be afraid to report it when it does happen to you. It's good knowing that you aren't alone and that you can depend on other people as well. Easy also shows you that you can inspire others to stand up for themselves by starting with yourself. It's a really good read.
6. The Vincent Brothers (The Vincent boys #2) by Abbi Glines
I prefer this one than The Vincent Boys because not only is it sweeter, you can actually really understand Lana's pain. I literally cried while reading this book. I usually like bad boys but the good guy is going to have to take the cake on this one.
7. Down To You (The Bad Boys #1) by M. Leighton
I don't really understand why I like this book so much. Maybe because underneath all the steam and sexual tension, there's an underlying plot somewhere. There really is. I can't wait for the next one! (I honestly didn't know that this book was/is a New Adult...)
I love the whole concept of Slam poetry, it's unique and very creative. It's great that Colleen Hoover was able to incorporate the idea of Slam poetry with her story, how the characters use it as a medium to express their feelings of anger or loneliness and the like.
9. Thoughtless (Thoughtless #1) by S.C. Stephens
My mom made me listen to a song called "Torn Between Two Lovers" (I forgot the artist though) and that song is so appropriate for this book, I can't even. Team Kellan, though!
10. Reaction (Reflection #2) by Jessica Roberts
A very heartwarming read and sweet read. The characters are better developed in this book than the first one.
Well those the top 10 best New Adult books I read this year!
Hope you enjoy them too! :)
