Over at Booking Through Thursday, this week’s question is:
It’s the last day of the year, and you know what that means … nostalgia and looking back.
What were your favorite books of the year? (Books that were new to you in 2009, if not necessarily published this year.)
What were your favorite books of the year? (Books that were new to you in 2009, if not necessarily published this year.)
I adore lists. I especially adore best-of-the-year lists, so this time of year makes me just bliss out.
Here’s my own personal best-of-the-year book list.
Fiction:
This Is Where I Leave You by Jonathan Tropper
The Hot Kid by Elmore Leonard
The Dark Horse by Craig Johnson
Nonfiction:
Carrying the Fire: An Astronaut’s Journeys by Michael Collins
The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court by Jeffery Toobin
Down Around Midnight: A Memoir of Crash and Survival by Robert Sabbag
Columbine by Dave Cullen
In 2009, I had a much easier time falling in love with nonfiction. I’m hoping fiction returns to me in 2010!
