Best Reads of 2009




I finally had a chance to put away the text books (but, I do miss going to school), so I ramped up my reading a bit. I've started far more than I finished and the pile keeps getting higher. I did read some really great books last year (along with one or two dogs). My favorites in no particular order:

  • The Invention of Hugo Cabret - Selznick

  • Revolutionary Road - Yates (audio)

  • The Group - McCarthy

  • White Tiger - Adiga (audio)

  • Lying Awake - Salzman

  • Optimist's Daughter - Welty (audio)

  • The Confederacy of Dunces - Toole (audio)

What is surprising is that four of the books I listened to. For someone who is not a big audio fan that really is quite a feat. Now if I could only find my MP3 so I could listen to more....... Here's to more great reading in 2010! Hurry up - time's a-wasting!
