Seeing all the 'best of' lists doing the rounds, I couldn't resist adding my own opinion to the best books published in 2011. I'm going to disclaim that I didn't read many of the books that were raved about this year (Wither, Unearthly and Between Shades of Gray are three that come to mind) and it's very possible that if I had, they would've made my list. This list is limited to the books that were published in 2011 that I read, and I've cheated a little by including one that was published in the US previously, but only published in the UK this year.
So, without further ado, my 'best of' list is as follows:
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor
Across the Universe by Beth Revis
Dearly, Departed by Lia Habel
The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin
When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead
Invincible Summer by Hannah Moscowitz
Entangled by Cat Clarke
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
Nice list! I just started The Unbecoming Of Mara Dyer, it is good so far.
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I adored Across the Universe - I'm looking forward to reading more of the books on this list. Have a great new year!

awww I really want to read Invincible Summer, others on your list were amazing and thats one Im definitely wanting!!
ReplyDeleteI have only read one book in your list so far :( Am very behind I think. Maybe 2012 will be the year that I catch up!
ReplyDeleteI've only managed to read Across the Universe...but the rest of these books are on my to-read list! I got Mara Dyer and Night Circus for Christmas so I can't wait to read them!
