Top Picks of the Year

The HelpWe all love end of the year Top Ten lists - who doesn't? Each December while the store is full and the books are flying, we are also agonizing over our favorite books of the year and how to rank them. The number one position is all-important because that helps to determine our Queenie Award Winner (our store favorite book of the year).

I've kept the past year's lists here for reference. It's a great time to figure out if there is a particular person whose picks you love (heads up - we've kept the reviews from former staff members) - then you can check in the store, and on the New Reviews page, to see what that staff member is reading.
