Favorites of 09

It is lists week here at BGB.  Our contributors will be posting lists of varying length and descriptions about our favorite books that we’ve read in 2009.   I’m kicking things off with a traditional top 10 list.   While most of my favorites were new in 2009, some were just new to me.  In no particular order, my favorite reads of ’09:

• All Other Nights by Dara Horn
• Nine Lives by Dan Baum
• Zeitoun by Dave Eggers
• The Long shot by Katie Kitamura
• The Great Perhaps by Joe Meno
• Lowboy by John Wray
• Green Metropolis by David Owen
• The City and The City by China Mieville
• Radiant Days by Michael Fitzgerald
• Love and Obstacles by Aleksandr Hemon

  Ah, Zeitoun…so rage-inducingly wonderfully good.
