2008 Reading List

The Reading List is a new award given by the Reference & User Services Association (RUSA) which is a division of The American Library Association (ALA). RUSA happens to be responsible for the Notable Books List which we blogged about here. Since genre fiction is not eligible for the Notable Books List, RUSA has created a genre fiction list, called The Reading List. Here are the the winners for this brand new award:

Adrenaline
The Second Objective by Mark Frost Hyperion

Fantasy
The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss

Historical Fiction
The Religion by Tim Willocks

Horror
The Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill

Mystery
Mistress of the Art of Death by Ariana Franklin

Romance
Natural Born Charmer by Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Science Fiction
In War Times by Kathleen Ann Goonan


Women’s Fiction
Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen

Come by the library and pick up one of these great titles!

Happy Reading
