In 2009, I read a total of 136 novels with 70 reviewed. The below mentioned novels are some of my top favorites from 2009. Each novel possesses a quality about it which has left me with a unique impression. Whether it was an uplifting message or unforgettable ending that left me stunned, these novels definitely deserve their re-readable status.

• Chasing Brooklyn by Lisa Schroeder
• Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer
• Ice by Sarah Beth Durst
• Dreaming Anastasia by Joy Preble
• Forest of Hands and Teeth, The by Carrie Ryan
• Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick
• The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson
• Project 17 by Laurie Faria Stolarz

• Avielle of Rhia by Dia Calhoun

2009 was a fantastic year for me. I started a book blog, graduated college, read more books in half a year than I probably would have all year thanks to all the wonderful books that bloggers have turned me on to, and that is just to name of the few things I have done. Right now, I can only hope to equal all the fantasticness that was 2009 in 2010. Thank to you everyone for helping making The Neverending Shelf what it is.
