2007 Best Of Lists

Best fiction of the year:

• Lord Vishnu's Love Handles, by Will Clarke
• G33k Mafia, by Rick Dakan
• The Reluctant Fundamentalist, by Mohsin Hamid
• The Yiddish Policemen's Union, by Michael Chabon
• Induction, by RW Riuglio (not yet available in print; I read an early proof)
  

Best non-fiction of the year:

• The Nine, by Jeffrey Toobin
• The Greatest Story Ever Sold, by Frank Rich (also most depressing)
• The God Delusion, by Richard Dawkins

The year-end numbers are in, and are right in line with prior years: 116 books read, of which 28 were non-fiction and 88 fiction. I expect to pick up the pace a bit in 2008 but that may be because I've just glanced at the queue of 28 books in my "to-be-read" stack.
