ReplyDeleteHope you like What Happens In London. I really liked it. But then I've love most of the Quinn books I've read.
Thanks Amy, Hope you have a good one too.
Michelle,
Awww Thanks. :) Hope you have a good one too.
Lea...
Happy New Year to you too! Glad you enjoy my blog. :)
I absolutely adored Hoyt's, To Seduce A Sinner, it hasn't gotten enough attention, imo. It has to be one of the best character studies in romance.
ReplyDeleteGreat list. Happy New Year!
Happy new Year Anna! Seems 2009 was an excellent year for you. I hope 2010 is just as great if not better =)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Anna!
ReplyDeleteYAY, LK and JQ are going strong in the Historical dept ;)
Yep! Out of all the Historical's I've read Lisa Kleypas and Julia Quinn have been my favorites.
ReplyDeleteExcellent list of your favorites! Saw several of my favorite books listed as well, and found a few new ones I want to check out. Thanks for the recommendations!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Anna!
Nice list with some great suggestions for myself for 2010! I'm looking forward to Yasmine Galenorn's "Bone Magic" and Leanna Renee Hieber's sequel to "Strangely Beautiful", which is "The Darkly Luminous Fight for Persephone Parker" coming in April.
ReplyDeleteHappy 2010 from a first time visitor to your blog!
Happy New Year, Anna, and I'm honored that you included a book I wrote on your list.
ReplyDeleteAll the best!
Hi Liz...
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to The Darkly Luminous Fight for Persephone Parker too.
Hi Judi...
Happy New Year to you too!
:)
Great list. I'm glad to see someone else has had the good sense to add Warbreaker to their top fantasy books of the year
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Anna!
ReplyDeleteI never get tired of reading book bloggers' year end lists. I did my list the same way you did... and see we share two urban fantasy picks--BONE CROSSED and MAGIC STRIKES.
I'm in awe that you read over 300 books. I read about a quarter of that.
Here's to great reads in 2010!
Cheers!
I love the Bridgerton books by Julia Quinn. I also enjoyed Storm Glass and Warbreaker. Great reads last year.
