The Best Books I Read in 2019

There are 14 of them and I’ll list them by genre, but in no particular order after that. These are all 5 star books in my opinion. Mostly that means strong writing, interesting characters, and a story that engaged me.

Here they are:

Lesbian-Bi-Female (F/F) Romance — Adult Pairings

The Truth by Erica Lee

Carly is aimless in her life, going from dysfunctional relationship to dysfunctional relationship, her only positive connection is with her best friend, Samantha. Then Carly meets Diana, and she’s off on another relationship. The chemistry is strong until she finds out Diana is married to a woman and they have a young child. But even though she pulls away at first, she and Diana are drawn back together but it’s not at all clear if what Diana is telling her about her marriage is the truth.

What I liked a lot about this book was its uniqueness. This isn’t the typical romance trope with its built-in tensions. Instead, you’re drawn into the multiple perspectives of Carly, Samantha, and Diana’s wife Hailey. I applaud Erica Lee for coming up with such a refreshing plot device instead of falling back on every romance out there.
