Weekly Geeks #20 – Top 10

4 October 2008 Jackie Weekly Geeks 2

It’s Weekly Geeks time again and we’re continuing our theme from last week. Dewey (with some help from Renay and myself) is in the process of compiling a list of the Top 10 Books from 2008.  I’ve already compliled my list, but we’re looking for what you consider to be the Top 10 from 2008.

Here’s what you have to do.  Write up a post giving us your list and then go back to the original Weekly Geeks #19 post and leave your link in Mr. Linky.  To make it even more enticing, Dewey is putting up another box of 11 books from Hachette to any blogger who creates a list and adds it to Mr. Linky at the Weekly Geeks #19.

On a side note, Dewey also has two other contests running at the moment:  one that’s open until the 6th and one that’s open until the 8th.

So if you haven’t made a list yet, then what are you waiting for?  Any books published in 2008 are eligible, regardless of which country you live in.  I know there is still 3 months left of 2008, but if you know there is a book coming out between now and Dec. 31st, then it’s still eligible.  I know on my list, I have two books that will be released in November and December that I haven’t read yet, but I can’t wait to get my hands on them, hence the reason they are on the list.  Speaking of lists, just to recap, here are my top 10 for 2008 (I do have some Honorable Mentions at the original post)…

  1. At Grave’s End by Jeaniene Frost (Dec. 30, 2008)

About Jackie 3282 Articles
I am a 30-something SAHM with two adorable boys and a supportive husband who is very tolerant of my reading addiction. I love to read and easily go through about a dozen books a month – well I did before I had kids. Now, not so much. After my first son was born, I began to take my hobby of reviewing a little more serious and started Literary Escapism to help with my sanity. I love to discuss the fabulous novels I’ve read and meeting all the wonderful people in the book blogging community has been amazing.
