my favorite books ever
(see also: favorite TV shows, favorite movies, and favorite web series)

Note: This list only includes books for which I have reviews. There are surely other books I've read in the past that deserve to be on this list, and I'll add them if and when I re-read them. Also, I'm listing them in order based on the ratings I gave them at the time that I read them, which may not be a perfectly accurate representation of the order in which I actually liked them.
