I can't believe it's almost the end of 2010 and I've been working like a dog. Since it's that time of year again, it's yet again time for our Top 10 Lists. I'm on my 55th book for the year as I'm doing this list, so I guess it could be edited if the books I read between now and 12/31 deserve being on the list. The Help by Kathryn Stockett: One of the most moving books I have read in a very long time. Such a wonderful portrayal of the relationships between the black and white communities in a small town. Review
The Tale of Halycon Crane by Wendy Webb: A wonderful spooky tale. One of my favorite books of the year. Review
This Must Be The Place by Kate Racculia: A great character driven debut novel. This author is someone I will be looking for in the future. Review
The Lost Summer of Louisa May Alcott by Kelly O'Connor McNees: For fans of Little Women, this is the book that sheds some fictional light on the author. Review
The Distant Hours by Kate Morton: A book about finding out who you are in the midst of unraveling a mystery. An outstanding historical fiction novel. Review
Caught by Harlan Coben: An outstanding psychological thriller, that keeps you guessing until the very end. Review
The Girl Who Chased The Moon by Sarah Addison Allen: I always look forward to Ms. Addison-Allen's books and this one was just wonderful. She never disappoints. Review
Heart of the Matter by Emily Giffin: I devoured this book the minute I got it. It made me laugh and cry. Review
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larssen: Review
First Family by David Baldacci: I just loved this book for reasons why I love all Baldacci books: You just never know where the story will end up. Review
I have to say 2010 has been an excellent book year for me. Sure there were books that I read that were disappointing but that's normal. I really can't do a bottom of the pile list since there aren't any books that really sucked.
I already have some great reads ready for 2011 and 2010 isn't even over!
Here's wishing you a wonderful 2011.
