Book Lists

[Anonymous]

Each year I look forward to the lists from NPR, the Booker Prize Winners, Barack Obama’s reading lists, and a few others — mostly from Independent book stores.

I’ll start this off with a link to the NPR list — that also has tabs for lists from previous years:

Staff picks from Elliot Bay Books in Seattle:

A link to the Loyalty Bookstores site — which features suggested picks for multiple areas of interest:

Book Eaters has so much potential, but it flopped. I can't believe it's on the NPR list. Truly, the work of the PR folks at the publisher.

I think the Booker long list is more interesting than the short list (or winner) often the ones I enjoyed the most don't make the short list.

Here’s a blog that compiles the lists every year.

Here’s where it stands and he updates almost daily:

Irish Times is also good for something a little different:
