The 10 best lighthearted books I read in 2023

I’ve read or listened to close to 100 books so far this year. I’ll take a book over TV any day of the week. I also have a weird habit where even if I start the book and don’t love it, I’ll make myself finish it.

I’m also stingy with my five star reviews. If I don’t get sucked into a book or love the ending then it’s just not the best in my opinion.

These books though, I loved. They are feel good, make you laugh out loud, with just enough sarcasm and a happy ending.

I noticed a trend in authors too when I started going through these. I love Colleen Hoover but there’s so many other great authors out there with similar writing styles too.

I saw mixed reviews on this one but I loved it so much! I had a book hangover at the end and could definitely read this one a second time.
I kept seeing this book everywhere and kind of put off reading it, then I devoured it in just a few days. Abby Jimenez is quickly becoming one of my favorites for a lighthearted romance that can honestly make me laugh out loud.
I read this probably six months ago and still think about it. It’s a good read, cute story and not as typical a plot as some of the others. It’s also one that I had not really heard about and I was so glad I gave it a chance.
I need more Carley Fortune. This book did was a similar story and plot of “28 Summers” but I still thoroughly enjoyed it
This was definitely a little different but I loved it all the same. Not your typical plot or story but still, so cute.
You know how most books start out slow then about halfway through you realize you’re sucked in? Well, I LOVED this one from the moment I started it.
Lucy Score is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors and I feel like we don’t hear enough about her. I loved this one!
Another one that sucked me in from the beginning! Quick, cute and funny read
I loved this one so much!!
Ok I’ll admit I didn’t love this one at first but it quickly grew on me and ended up being one of my favorites, still

So, there you have it. My top 10 romantic, feel good books of 2023. I’m hoping you love these books half as much as I did.
