Share with us the 10* books you've most enjoyed, or consider to be the best books you've read this year.
It's completely subjective - you get to decide what makes them the best books for you.
Only guidelines:
- The books don't have to be newly published this year, but you do have to have read them for the first time.
- You should give an explanation of what made each book so enjoyable. This can be as long or as short as you feel.
So. Let us know what's good.
*If you can't come up with 10, no matter. Just as many as you can. But no more than 10.

I'll give you a top five. I only read about 25 books so the top 10 isn't necessarily "good".

I enjoyed Mahfouz, but I agree the translation wasn't stellar

I read a Dutch translation, so presumably not the same one as yours.
