Great New Books: best books of 2014

unnamed

As you may know, I’m delighted to be a part of the Great New Books team.   Collectively we recommend books we’ve loved (“new” generally means recent though not brand-spanking-new).  I’m proud of the way Great New Books has stuck to the philosophy of only recommending books we truly love.  In a book review climate littered with not-so-genuine raves, I find this to be somewhat rare.

This week, we’re sharing our favorite books of 2014.  Spoiler: I wrote about one of my top 3, but the other 2 were covered by others on our team!

I hope you’ll click over and read about the team’s favorite reads of 2014.  In the next weeks we’ll also talk about our most-anticipated reads of 2015 and our favorite classic books.
