A mixed bag this year. Some great, some not so great, some fluffy and light and some dark and angsty. But all were good in their own way, and suited my mood at the time. I wouldn't recommend them all, and even those I would recommend wouldn't be to everyone's taste.
My favourite books of the year have been: Blackout and All Clear by Connie Willis, The Passage by Justin Cronin, Changes by Jim Butcher, The Snowman by Jo Nesbo and The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
Upcoming reads for 2011:
Books two and three of The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins
The Leopard by Jo Nesbo
Ghost Story by Jim Butcher
