I gave these 24 books a 5-star rating
A 5 star-rating on Goodreads is the best you can get. A 10/10, a 100%, an A+ etc. I thought I didn’t give 5 star-ratings a lot, but there are still 24 books that I gave a 5-star rating. Here they are!
A little note first
But first, how are you guys? Isn’t this a crazy world we live in now? I have a really hard time thinking about anything else than the virus, and it’s draining. But I know I’m not the only one in this.
The situation here in the Netherlands is bad, but at the same time, it’s bad everywhere. We are urged to stay at home, work from home and wash our hands and stay away from people. So I’m at home scared, because this scary virus is extra dangerous for me, since I’m a high risk person.
I like to escape the world right now, so I’m burying myself in books, series (I’m deep in Love Is Blind right now and OMG!) and movies and catch the occasional Pokémon on my boyfriend’s Switch.
Back to the books
I had trouble coming up with a blogpost this week. Mostly because my mind is somewhere else, but partly because I don’t want to take advantage of the situation. Blogs like … things to do at home right now, or Read these books now that you’re stuck at home didn’t feel appropriate.
So I want to keep things positive and share the 24 books I gave a 5-star rating. These are all the 5-star ratings I gave on Goodreads, from the moment I started on Goodreads up until now.
Funny thing: I don’t remember some of these books that well… Maybe I’ll have to re-read and see why I loved them so much!
Books with a 5 star-rating
When a book gives me all the feels, I’m more likely to give it a high rating. Whether it’s making me emotional, very happy or just makes me think.
These books nearly (or did) make me cry:
These books made me all happy and gooey inside:
This (Dutch) non-fiction book made me think
These books I don’t really remember…
What are your 5-star rated books? Have you read any of these books, and if so, which one and what did you think? Do you re-read favorites?

Hey there!
My name is Jas, welcome to my blog. XIV is about my life around my lucky number. You’ll find anything from songs and books to trips and family stuff.
I liked a lot of these too! I think I gave 5 stars to All The Bright Places and The Fault In Our Stars.
I’m happy to hear that!! They really are great 🙂
Thank you so much for commenting!
I hope you’re doing well, Jas! this virus is horrible, and I hope it blows over soon:(
sadly, I haven’t read a lot of the books on this list 😅 but I recently added Far From the Tree to my TBR, and I’m excited to pick it up! I’ve heard such good things about it!
Well, sounds like you have a lot of good books still to read 😉 I can’t wait til you pick it up and know what you think about it! I hope to you it lives up to the hype. For me it did!
Thanks you so much for your sweet comment, and hope you are doing well too ❤
Ah this is such a good list, I feel like we have very similar taste in books and that makes me so happy! I loved Far From The Tree SO much, this book deserves way more hype. And I have Open Road Summer on my TBR, I’m so happy to see you enjoyed it so much 😀
Yay, that makes me happy too! 😀 Yes, that book was SO good, I can’t believe I hadn’t heard more about it.
Oooh Open Road Summer was such a great book, I’m excited to hear what you think about it when you get to read it! I really want to read the other Emery Lord-books now.
Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting! ❤
