I've been seeing lists everywhere! Ok, so maybe not quite everywhere... So I thought I ought to pull this one and put it in its own post... These are the books that I enjoyed reading in 2009, in no particular order. Organized by series and single books.

I read a couple on your list. The one that makes me smile when I see the title is The Girl She Used to Be. I really liked that book!
Happy New Year!
Great post. I found People of the Book to be very good also. :)
Nice list! I've only read 2 of the books, but have 3 others in my TBR pile.
Twenty Boy Summer is on my "Best of 2009" list too.
I also have a few of those in my TBR. Glad to see you enjoyed them!
I like your list,,and my favorite series also in Karen Marie Moning..cant wait till the next one comes out..
It's kinda nice to know that some of the books on my list were favs for others, too... Makes me feel like I"m not quite out in left field, lol! =)
