Top 10 Books of the Year (My #1 Pick Is Unhinged 😱)

Here’s a chaotic, honest, and VERY subjective ranking of the best books I read this year.
If you already love watching “best books of the year” videos, wild bookish opinions, mystery-thrillers that keep you guessing, immersive fantasy worlds, and literary fiction that emotionally wrecks you in the most satisfying way — you’re my people.
This is ranting, defending, judging, and gushing. No summaries. Just vibes.
Expect: cozy crime chaos, murder, gods, planets, found family, depressing emotional support men, and one gloriously unhinged dungeon adventure that stole the top spot.
Grab a snack. Roast my ranking. Steal some recs.
And yes — I will defend my #1 choice with my life.
