I've read 1 and 1/2 of the books on this list (and the Number-1-so-far is one book I couldn't bear to read more than halfway through). Looks like I'll be adding even *more* to my "To Read" list!
Neither have I....I've been so busy with reading for work and school that I am still catching up on the things I've meant to read the past few years. I'm quite a good deal behind....
I cannot vote fairly until I've read a good number of these, but I really enjoyed the Twilight series.
none of the books I've read were on the list.Thanks for being my friend at goodreads.
Have a nice day.

Eeek! I haven't read any of these, either. (Blush) Lists like these just remind me of how I *really* don't get enough reading in these days. :..(
Hey, I've read some of these, which I find is an oddity, usually these lists contain nothing I have read!Charlene
Most of these books just arrived in the country where I live and applies like 40% tax to imported books. I'd like to save first Although I'd really like Jhumpa Lahiri's book to be the best.
Adam:Thanks. But you've listed none of the books I've read.

had to vote for the only book that I've read on the list...to say any different would not be fair. Breaking Dawn, I have not finished yet.
Also for you poetry lovers out there, you can pick up my book, Organic Hotels @ lulu.com or any major book store website.
-you people have to made a list in every language, I only read 4 of this books and aren´t the "best books 2008"ciao
I have not read any of these - just started Katie Ford's book though. A few would definitely go on my To-Read list but I have a lot already. I second the thought that we should wait a few months. A lot of good books come out in the fall and that's where I do the bulk of my reading (also, winter when I;m inside more...
I have not read any of these books either. I'm usually busy writing my own. I guess I will have to try harder.
Sorry, but I've read none of the books on your list.I did see one I want to check out.
Take care and thanks for being my friend.

I hadn't read any of these either, so I added Amanda Grange's Mr.Knightley's diary. That was probably my favorite read of 2008.

My favorite book was the Last Lecture. I found it so touching, so inspiring. It is a book I will never forget.Maryanne

Thanks for letting me vote- I have read many of the books but I really, really enjoyed Jennifer Storm's book and I am still passing it around to my adult friends (who may or may not have children dealing with alcoholism) and they love it too----it speaks volumes that Jennifer struggled for so long and now look at her recovery, her job (which can be sooo challenging!!! and rewarding!!!!) and her happiness in life. I wish everyone would read her book.
Several of these are small press or self published books that have gotten less than stellar reviews elsewhere. I dub this list suspect.
Indeed the list is questionable. Each respondent should add their favorite not just select from the list
I'm afraid that many of these books are on my To Be Read list, or I haven't even thought about them. I voted for a book that I had read and enjoyed.
