Book lists

[anef]

I managed to finish 133 books in 2010.  This is a slight surprise as in 2009 I read 163, but I guess I've been busy.

Best books I read in 2010 (more or less in order of excellence).  It's a coincidence that there are ten of them.:

Allegra Goodman - Intuition
Tom Rob Smith - Child 44
Ariana Franklin - Relics of the Dead
Patrick Rothfuss - The Name of the Wind
Maya Slater - Mr Darcy's Diary
Madeleine George - Looks
Scott Westerfeld - Leviathan
Hilary Mantel - Wolf Hall
Muriel Barbery - L'Elegance de L'Herisson
Amin Maalouf - The Crusades through Arab Eyes

Best SF and Fantasy not on the list above, in order of reading:

Sherwood Smith - Treason's Shore
Scott Westerfeld - Parasite Positive
Sandra McDonald - The Outback Stars
Martin Millar - Lonely Werewolf Girl
Ngugi wa Thiong'o - The Wizard of the Crow
Kristin Cashore - Graceling
Robin Wassermann - Skinned
Kage Baker - In the Garden of Iden
Sergei Lukyanenko - The Night Watch
Patrick Ness - Monsters of Men
