So here's my list of ten awesome books with under 2,000 ratings on Goodreads (just a couple of days late). They are ranked from most reviews to least.
- The Little Bookstore of Big Stone Gap by Wendy Welch (1,668 reviews) - If you've ever dreamed of opening a bookstore, this book is for you.
- The Storm Sister by Lucinda Riley (1,635 reviews) - The second book in a series about seven adopted sisters.
- Grave Consequences by Lisa Tawn Bergren (1,434 reviews) - Also the second book in a series. Also about an adopted woman. Hmm.
- Return to Me by Lynn Austin (1,214 reviews) - I don't know how many readers of Biblical fiction there are out there, but Lynn Austin writes some of the best, in my opinion.
- The Midnight Queen by Sylvia Izzo Hunter (821 reviews) - Magical Victorian England. Need I say more? That is a setting I will never get tired of.
- Among the Janeites: A Journey Through the World of Jane Austen Fandom by Deborah Yaffe (775 reviews) - This was one of my favorite reads of the year.
- The Penguin Lessons by Tom Michell (726 reviews) - Who doesn't want a penguin for a pet?
- A Spoonful of Sugar: A Nanny's Story by Brenda Ashford (534 reviews) - A real life Mary Poppins
- The Hidden White House: Harry Truman and the Reconstruction of America's Most Famous Residence by Robert Klara (314 reviews) - This was a fascinating read about the history of the White House.
- House of Living Stones by Katie Schuermann (142 reviews) - If you like Jan Karon's Mitford, you'll love this book.
