Amazon released its suggestions for the top books of 2009 (ranked both by editor preference and sale ranking) just this week. Although, as they claim themselves, it is nearly impossible to objectively rank books, and if it were, there is no guarantee that readers will agree, the lists often provide some interesting titles you are bound to have missed - after all, we can't keep track of everything, especially with the
number of books published this fall.
The customer rankings can provide some insight into buying habits too: mass market mysteries seem to dominate the list.
Even if you don't buy on Amazon (get it at your local store in a continued celebration of
National Bookstore Day!), the lists are fun to peruse.
