  1. You know how I loved Dangerous Girls! This was really hard, but I *think* my top three of the year were:

    Clockwork Princess
    The Night Circus
    The Lucy Variations

    (Out of 64 or 65 by year end.) And Delirium is one of my top reads of *ever* but I didn't read it this year. Oh, that book.
