Patti's best of 2011

Here are my favorites of 2011 in no particular order. All were published in 2011 unless otherwise noted. I only read about 85-90 books this year. I did however, watch a crap-load of TV and if anyone is interested, I recommend Luther and Monday Monday.

Young Adult:

Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake

A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness

Where Things Come Back by John Corey Whaley

Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys

Blood Red Road by Moira Young

Adult:

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

Robopocolypse by Daniel H Wilson
(I can't help it, it was so much fun. Plus I just like to say Robopocolypse)

Case Histories by Kate Atkinson
(not published in 2011, but I really liked it. I liked it so much I've read the entire series now and can't wait until the DVD comes out so I can watch it)

The Reapers are the Angels by Alden Bell
(also not 2011, but I read it because it was a 2011 Alex Award book)

Nice list! I hardly read anything this month so I'm curious to see what my overall 2011 total will be. I'll try to post my list soon.

Still haven't read Anna Dressed in Blood, but I really want to. It's always checked out at my library. Maybe I should order another copy?
