Overwhelmed by all the book options in year-end round-ups?


Maybe looking at a top 10 list (instead of top 100, top 50, top by a million different categories) is more manageable? If so, we can turn again to the New York Times. The best part of this list? Almost all of them have excerpts or the full first chapter posted with summary.

Five fiction and five nonfiction choices are listed. But you don't have to take my word for it!  I haven't read ANY (the shame, the shame!) so I can offer no verdicts on their recommendations.
