I was only going to pick 20 books for this list but I couldn’t narrow it down so it’s 25.  2010 was just such an amazing book year!

(in no particular order) (links to my reviews)

#1-Nevermore by Kelly Creagh-Such an amazing story.  Probably the best debut of 2010, in my opinion.  The next book cannot get here fast enough!

#2-Zen And Xander Undone by Amy Kathleen Ryan-This was such a cute story.  It didn’t get the recognition that I feel it deserved.

#3-The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting-This is a very unique story.  It’s super creepy but I loved it.  I can’t wait to read Desires Of The Dead!

#4-Brightly Woven by Alexandra Bracken-I don’t read much fantasy but I am so glad that I read this one.  Alexandra Bracken has an amazing imagination and I loved her book.  I really hope the sequel gets published.

#5-The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson-This is such a beautiful book.  I laughed and I cried.  A lot.

#6-Hex Hall by Rachel Hawkins-Hex Hall is fabulous.  It was so unique and amazingly funny.  I loved everything about it.

#7-Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver-This one was a little slow in the beginning but I am glad that I didn’t give up on it.  It was so good!

#8-Heist Society by Ally Carter-I loved Ally Carter’s first series but I have to say that this one might be better.  I had the hardest time putting this one down.

#9-Bleeding Violet by Dia Reeves-This is definitely the weirdest book that I have ever read but I say that in the best possible way.  Dia Reeves has quite the imagination.

#10-The Secret Year by Jennifer Hubbard-This is another one of those books that made me cry.  Jennifer Hubbard is a beautiful writer and I can’t wait for more from her.

#11-Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins-Do I really need to say anything about this one?  Great ending to the trilogy no matter what everyone else thinks.  Team Peeta all the way!

#12-Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare-I don’t know what to say about this one.  I just loved it.  The setting was probably the best part for me.

#13-Jane by April Lindner-A modern retelling of Jane Eyre.  Do I need to say more?  If so, I loved it.  I can’t praise it enough.  Read it!

#14-I Now Pronounce You Someone Else by Erin McCahan-This is the cutest book I have read in a long time.  I feel that every confused teenage girl should read this one.  You are not alone. 

#15-Bright Young Things by Anna Godbersen-I love Anna Godbersen.  Everything that she has written so far, I adored.  This one was no exception. 

#16-Paranormalcy by Kiersten White-Another fabulous debut.  I loved Paranormalcy so much.  Evie cracked me up and Lend made me swoon.  I can’t wait for the sequel. 

#17-Being Jamie Baker by Kelly Oram-This one had a little bit of everything in it.  There was romance, superhero powers, and one really evil guy.  I couldn’t stop reading!

#18-The Iron King by Julie Kagawa-I love anything to do with fairies and these are not your ordinary fairies.  They were so awesome.  I recommend this one all the time.  =]

#19-The Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa-See #18.

#20-Sea by Heidi Kling-I loved Sea.  It was so moving and beautifully written.  I am dying for more from Heidi Kling.

#21-Salvaged  by Stefne Miller-I can’t say enough about Salvaged.  It’s an amazing book and I don’t feel that it has gotten the recognition that it deserves.  Check it out!

#22-The Agency by YS Lee-This series is fantastic.  It’s a great historical but it’s also a great mystery.  The third book is so far away though. 

#23-Shadow Hills by Anastasia Hopcus-Great debut!  Anastasia Hopcus wrote a great mystery that kept me guessing until the very end.

#24-Raised by Wolves by Jennifer Lynn Barnes-This was my first book by Jennifer Lynn Barnes but definitely not my last.  I can’t believe I haven’t read anything by her until now.  She’s awesome.

#25-Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare-Yes I only just read this series.  I hate myself for waiting so long.  I can’t wait for City Of Fallen Angels.  =]
