Top 10 Books Read in 2011

All week, Cait and I will be posting some of our top 10 favorites from 2011 (and a sneak peek at what we’re looking forward to in 2012) as part of the Top 10 in 2011 event hosted by Jessica at Confessions of a Bookaholic, Lisa from A Life Bound By Books, Jaime and Patricia from Two Chicks on Books and Rachel from Fiktshun.

We’d love it if you’d comment and let us know what some of your favorites are too this week!

I read roughly 300 book this year (should I be embarrassed about that? Geez.. what else did I do this year?!), and when I looked through everything on Goodreads it wasn’t as hard to narrow it down to ten as I thought. This list represents the best of the best!

I had a much easier time picking my top 10 favorite books than I thought.  Some of these didn’t end up being top-graded books, but they all either have already been re-read (some more than once – or a few times) or had a big impact on me.
