Just curious as to if any other book nut out there has started looking at their bookshelf and started thinking about 2010 yet? What's the first book you think you'll read?
I agree. I'm pretentious and snobbish about book lists.
With that said, I did read a handful of YA books this year. I did need a few books to be shorter or easier to read after some long-winded novels that I read. I would say that there are about 10 YA books on my list and I read over 100. So 1-10 isn't bad. But I agree that they should not ALL be YA or "easy to read" books if you are over the age of 18 and have the reading ability to do more.
