In what is now possibly an annual tradition, I share my favorite fiction of the year. Specifically, my 5 favorite books. As always, it was next to impossible to choose. Lots of novels and story collections could've made the list, but the job is to narrow it down. And so I did my best.
Happy holidays to all!
