After much deliberation (and three days wrangling WordPress’s terrible new block editor), I’ve finally managed to narrow down my top 21 books of 2020!
Yes, I may have intended it to be 20, and yes a few of them are series rather than individual books, but I couldn’t work out what to cut!

They’re in no particular order, and not sorted by genre or age range, so please enjoy the jumble!
