Smart Bitches started as a review blog, and we are still going. We’ve published more than three thousand reviews since 2005, and we wanted to share some of our favorites. Choosing only a few has been really challenging, because we all have many favorites. We wanted to talk about reviews we were proud of and that we thought were memorable.

For our favorite reads, we had to choose one favorite read of 2024, but everyone is allowed two bonus picks for books not released this year. However, Sarah is ever the rulebreaker and her picks are all from this year! Here are our favorites of the year! We’d also love to hear about your best read of 2024!
The Duke Who Didn’t was always going to be a book that made me happy. Humour, food, and a gentle hero who just wants the heroine to be less stressed are a pretty good formula for getting onto my keeper shelf.
RECOMMENDED: The Duke Who Didn’t by Courtney Milan is 99c! Apologies if this one is a leftover sale from the weekend. Catherine gave this a squee grade:

Happy Tuesday! It’s a short week for us in terms of releases; only four! However, looking ahead to August, it looks like the first week is going to be particularly beefy for book releases. Get ready! What books are you excited for this week? Let us know in the comments!
Four Weddings to Fall in Love by Jackie Lau is $3.99! This is book one in the Weddings with the Moks series. KJ Charles reviewed this one on Goodreads and mentions its a steamy opposites attract romance.
Happy Wednesday Links! We’re going through a heatwave in New England right now and it is unpleasant, considering my apartment (and most apartments in the area) don’t have central AC. Summer is…unpleasant. Anyone else experiencing the same thing and trying to keep cool? Also, I hate cooking during this weather, so feel free to share your favorite summer recipes that don’t require me standing by a hot stove! … Beverly Jenkins has announced that her Blessings series … Continue reading Links: Kickstarters, Cheese, & More→
The Midsummer Bride by Kati Wilde is $1.99! This is part of the Dead Lands series, which has been recommended before on the site. It also looks like seven books in the series are available for roughly $17, though some of these installments are novellas. Can you jump in anywhere, or should you start with book one?
Once again, I challenged our reviewers to pick their favorite (only one!) book they read this year. However, Sarah changed the rules up and said everyone’s favorite read had to be a 2023 release, but that they can have two bonus pick for books not released this year. Here are our favorites of the year! We’d also love to hear about your best read of 2023! Since Sneezy is recommending webtoons, I’ll drop them here. … Continue reading Our Favorite Reads of 2023→
