Reading Ideas

Have our recently cold evenings motivated you to stay home cuddled up with a blanket and a good book? Do you need reading ideas for these chilly nights? I always turn to the “Best” lists compiled by several newspapers, websites and magazines at the end of every year, for inspiration. These are lists of some of the best literature and non-fiction published in the previous year. Here are a few to try:

Amazon Best of Books 2008

Barnes & Noble Best of Books 2008

Entertainment Weekly Best Books of 2008

Library Journal Best Books 2008

New York Times Notable Books of 2008

NPR Best Books of 2008

Publishers Weekly Best Books of the Year

Washington Post Best Books of 2008
