4.5 Star Books From LibraryThing (Through 2021)

These are the books that were just edged out of my 5 star list. These are the books from my LibraryThing that I've given 5 stars (as of the end of 2021). Not sure if I'll ever do a 4 star list as there's a lot more of those and it's so time consuming to make! Also, half-star rankings can get a little weird, so hope you enjoy!
