Top Ten Books Written In The Past 10 Years That I Hope People Are Still Reading In 30 Years


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly post hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week's post is Top Ten Books Written In The Past 10 Years That I Hope People Are Still Reading In 30 Years.

This is one of those posts where it would have been really nice if I had been blogging my reading experience ten years ago.  It's hard to remember what I read back then.  Let's see, I was barely starting high school ten years ago.  So I don't even know what I was reading back then (other than sheet music and biotechnology protocols).

Another note, I may have failed (scratch the may have, I'm sure I failed) at picking books that were written in the last ten years.  I ended up picking books that I had read in the last ten years that had semi-recent publishing dates.  Oops, my bad (and no, I don't want to fix my list)...

My faves while in high school (maybe, I'm guessing):


Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging by Louise Rennison
The Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares

My faves from college:


A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray
The Host by Stephenie Meyer
The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory
Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead

My faves right after college (and right before my huge reading spurt):


The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Sookie Stackhouse Series by Charlaine Harris
If I Stay by Gayle Forman
