Simply the Best
We haven’t even gotten the turkey on the table…I bet you thought I was going to say and stores are putting out their Christmas decorations. Well, that may be true but what I’d like to talk about here is a different kind of wrap up. Drum roll please, It’s the Annual Best Book Lists marathon. Now don’t get me wrong. I love these lists even though I realize I don’t have a prayer to read even a tenth of what will make the lists (even considering duplicates). I look forward to the one compiled by my fiction_l (a list for library staff worldwide) colleagues though we will wait until the year end before casting our votes for best. After all there’s still two months to find a gem to recommend. I definitely will scan the myriad of others that will pop up seeing what I might have missed for purchase or to add to my own TBR pile. Here’s a few of the published lists trying to get a head-start before the storm soon to come. Amazon's Best Books 2010...so far Publisher's Weekly Best Books 2010 Library Journal's first venture into the foray including a mix of both fiction and no-fiction. Early Word Have you read any of these that made all three lists? Comments? I'd love to hear what you think. •The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot (Crown) |
