My Favorite Books of 2009

So far I've read 101 books in 2009. I'm hoping for more than that in 2010. I kept track of them all on here so I printed the list out and then narrowed it down. These are in no particular order:

Get Cozy Josey by Susan May Warren (final book in the series)
Ruby's Slippers by Leanna Ellis (I swear this book was written for me!)
Sky Blue by Travis Thrasher
Dear Mom by Melody Carlson (if you have a teen-ish daughter then you need to read this book)
Jane Austen Ruined My Life by Beth Pattillo (fun story)
For Women Only by Shaunti Feldhahn (I try to read this at least once a year!)
Kiss Me if You Dare by Nicole Young (final book in the series)
She's In A Better Place by Angela Hunt (final book in the series)
Limelight by Melody Carlson (LOVED the main character!)
On A Someday by Roxanne Henke

And as an honorable mention, my choice for my favorite new author "find" of the year: Jenny B Jones. I LOVE her books!
The Katie Parker Production series (In Between, On the Loose, The Big Picture) and A Charmed Life series (So Not Happening and I'm So Sure) are great YA novels that this 40 year old mom adored. Just Between You And Me is her "adult" novel which was just as good.

My other surprise was discovering Travis Thrasher. If you haven't read Sky Blue you need to. AMAZING book!
