Best Titles of 2010 - Persnickety Snark's Five Challenge 2010

Today is the last day of Persnickety Snark's FIVE Challenge for 2010. If you don't know what that is, click here. For the last two weeks, myself and a bunch of other bloggers, including Persnickety Snark, have been counting down our TOP FIVE's in a bunch of different categories.

I participated in
Great Debuts, Great Covers, Great Series and Most Anticipated Titles of 2011.

The final category is... Best Titles of 2010


Of course this is the hardest category as there have been so many fantastic books this year. Here are my top FIVE and honourable mentions in no particular order...


TOP FIVE


Dash & Lily's Book of Dares by David Levithan and Rachel Cohn




The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson




Graffiti Moon by Cath Crowley




Will Grayson, Will Grayson by David Levithan and John Green




North of Beautiful by Justina Chen Headley


I know this wasn't released in 2010 but I read it this year for the first time and fell in love with it.


HONOURABLE MENTIONS


Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver
The Lonely Hearts Club by Elizabeth Eulberg
Six Impossible Things by Fiona Wood
Hold Me Closer, Necromancer by Lish McBride
Last Sacrifice by Richelle Mead
The Truth About Leo by David Yelland

  7. GM definitely. I didn't love love 'North of Beautiful', but still thought it was fairly sweet.
