Highlights




Booking Through Thursday

It’s an old question, but a good one . . . What were your favorite books this year?

List as many as you like … fiction, non-fiction, mystery, romance, science-fiction, business, travel, cookbooks … whatever the category. But, really, we’re all dying to know. What books were the highlight of your reading year in 2007?


Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

I wonder if the questions mean favorite books that I read in the year 2007 or only books that published in 2007. So I'm going to lists all the books that was published in 2007 plus the books that I've read that was published in different years, but I just got around to reading it this year too. I have read about 50 books in 2007 ( book #51 is not done reading). Some I've read with my friend Melody and Alice , which was fun :)

I love all of Dean Koontz's books, and I am a huge fan of Stephen King, I started reading him when I was 9. My parents didn't know his books were full of cuss words so they didn't care. I love horror books, although it has been a long time since I was genuinely afraid after reading one. :(

Happy BTT!

P.S. I am going to add you to my blogroll, too. I am a total bibliophile and I love reading what others recommend!

Julia said...

Hi Oneluvgurl - I already add you in my blog too :)

Friend introduced me to Dean Koontz. I just have whole lot of catching up to do. I normally prefer romance suspense but I read thriller sometime :)

I love to see everyone recommend too. I've recommed some books in the past at my blog. But most are not thriller...sorry :)

Happy BTT !
