2023 Top Ten Books

I'm cheating a bit on this top "ten" list, as I am counting series of books as one book in my list.

I define "top ten" as books that I binge-read, would read again, or would buy new or buy for someone else. I wouldn't necessarily recommend these books for everyone; that depends on your taste and tolerance.  But these were my favorites of the year.  If you want to find my reviews, go to Russell Roundup: Alphabetical by Title (russellfamily2004.blogspot.com) and search for the title or author.
