Peer pressure, I am a sucker for it! So, I am joining in with the 2009 wrap up posts going around!

My *5 Star* Books Read & Published in 2009

I couldn’t narrow it down to a top 10, so you are getting all the books that were published this year and I gave 5 stars to.

Since I started the blog late in the year, below isa list of books I have read throughout 2009 according to Goodreads (174 total). If there is a review, it is linked! You can see a nifty collage of covers here and check out all the books below and the star ratings I gave them at Goodreads.
