Most of these books are genre romance/horror. Hate to think that a reader sticks to one genre so completely when there are other books in other areas of life. Being human is about a lot more than who pretends to love us to get close enough to suck our blood. What about having children, losing jobs, inventing something, reaching out to others, singing, understanding another person's culture. If this is the future of reading, we are in deep trouble as a culture and a life form.

True most are part of series but I'm not voting until I read it. Because every series has that stinker book that's not as good and even if I love the author I'll be honest in a voting.

Honest voting is a good thing. As an author, I consider the feedback from reviews when I edited the next book. While I want my readers to love my characters as much as I do, each reader's experience in life affects their interpretation of a book. And that kind of vicarious living is exactly what books are meant to offer.

I pretty much stick to UF and Paranormal Romance genres. Much like when I watch TV, when I read I do it to escape reality. I don't care to read books about having kids (I have one) or other "real" life stuff.
Besides alot of the "fanasty" type books mirror real life. If you look at the plot in UF books and forget that the main character might be a vamp, shifter or something esle nonhuman the underlying confect is usually close to a "real" life confect.

Watch how this works, the list is updated often,only one person has tovote on a book to have it added. The list reflects readers from this site only and they can vote on 100 different books for the year,so you get a list showing the best books read for they year read by the readers from this web site.Many readers dont vote,however those reading series would tend to sway the genre of the list. I have read many from the list and they are as different as they are alike.Yes many do have the same theme but lately have come up with very different rules and ideals to change our thinking on the old thoughts or rules. It is funny one of you wrote they read to get away from the everyday life, so do I as many of us do. I have to laugh then when my husband says why do I complain when he acts like the alpha wolf in all those books I read, its funny his is right it is sexy in the book but not so much in person. Any way my point is the people voteing are the ones reading this genre of books. Lets me point out I have not yet voted so I am not defending my votes. Some of the really good books I have read this year are not for the mainstream readers so I dont vote on them,however if you would like to read about abuse lookup devine( by nora roberts),empty chair,or the courage to heel very good books but only for those with an understanding of abuse and survival otherwise I feel many would not care for them. Also look up dean koontz, clive cusler,or patricia cornwell this will give you a different genre and you cant go wrong with any of there books. Happy reading...

Re Nina, I'd agree, except I was lucky enough to read "The Ballad of Young Tam Lin" by Patricia Leslie (on Amazon, or as a Kindle). Great story, clearly-drawn characters - humor, drama, pathos, and romance with sensuality, but no graphic descriptions - leaves just enough to the imagination to make it more erotic.

My favourite books of 2011 aren't on this list: The Lantern by Deborah Lawrenson and The Legacy by Katherine Webb. I'd say they fall into the genre of women's fiction but both have a link to the past and The Lantern has the suggestion of a ghost lingering. Both good reads which I'd recommend.Song of the Phoenix

The Ballad of Young Tam Lin, historical fantasy romance, based on an old Scottish ballad. Set in 1790, Lady Janet Dunbar is seduced by "Tam Lin," a knight of Summerland (one term for Elfland). She loves him, is pregnant by him, but he's the consort of the Queen of the Elves. What chance does Janet have? If you hate romance or fantasy, don't read this. If you like the genre, you'll love it.
