  2. I loved Life of Pi...I think I read it last year. I have been waiting on If I Stay because it keeps getting second place for my book club, I may just have to break down and read it on my own!

  9. Ooh, quite a few of those books are my 5/5 raters too:
    Guernsey
    The Forgotten Garden
    Wintergirls

    And I still have to read Willow and The Everafter. Considering The Hunger Games too since everyone is reeeally praising the series, but I'm not sure ...

    All in all, great picks!

  10. Great list! The ones I've read were good, and now I have several more to add to the TBR mountain. Hope you have a happy (and reading-filled) 2010!

  11. I have several of those books in my library but have not read them yet. I have become stuck on stories about the settlers on the Canadian prairies. I am currently reading a book written in 1942 - and loving it.

  12. Several of these books are in my TBR pile (which I'm hoping to put a dent in starting in 2010). I'm looking forward to getting the chance (hopefully) to reading them!
