The two I've read were winners with me also, Last Child by Hart and In the Shadow of Gotham by Pintoff. I even took the time to comment on Pintoff's on our catalog's reader reviews. Take a look. Columbine by Cullen was a best pick for 2009 on many end of the year reading lists.

 Now, how about you, read any of these?
