Author Exposure's Top 10 Favorite Books of 2009


Libby and I received numerous requests for book reviews, author interviews, book club choice and guest spotlights during 2009. We still have so many more to read, but of the books we have read - we have chosen our 10 Top Favorites! In fiction, we chose the ones with memorable stories and strong characters. For nonfiction, we chose the ones that gave new and practical guidelines for the most effective future in life and business. However, when it comes to Cranioklepty all we can say is knowledge is power!

Bunco Babes Gone Wild by Maria Geraci: Interesting characters, witty
dialogue, and hot romance make this romantic comedy an entertaining
must read for those who enjoy contemporary women’s fiction! - Libby

Tractrix by R. J. Archer: A delightful cross between Indiana Jones and
the X-Files, this book definitely gets my recommendation. -Libby


Cranioklepty: Grave Robbing and The Search for Genius by Colin Dickey:
This book is chock-full of information! I would recommend it to anyone
interested in science and/or the grotesque. Sometimes fact is stranger
than fiction. - Libby

Obedience by Will Lavendar: This is a very clever psychological
thriller that will keep the reader guessing until the shocking end.- Libby

Last Night in Montreal by Emily St. John Mandel: This is a beautifully
written haunting tale of amnesia, love, obsession, and loss. The
characters are so real-to-life I felt as though I really knew them and
understood their struggles. - Libby



31 Hours by Masha Hamilton: Leaves you in state of silent terror which changes it from a good story to a great one! If there were such a thing as a literary thriller, this is one great example.  - Traci


Little Bee by Chris Cleave: The author did an excellent job of character enrichment through the native African dialect. He was also very crafty at drawing in equal amounts of suspense throughout the story. I was dying to know what happened on the beach! - Traci


Collapse of Distinction by Scott McKain The book cover alone gave me the first distinct thought and the words behind it never fell short. This business book appeals to the sole proprietor and the Fortune 100 executive. You will be forced to think about your next move against your competitors after reading this book. - Traci


Picking Cotton by Ronald Cotton and Jennifer Thompson-Cannino: A resonating dual memoir of truths - wrongful convictions, redemption and forgiveness. This was a start to many truths to be told and it aids as a catalyst of voice for justice. - Traci


The Self-Empowered Woman by Marilyn Murray Willison: I'm inspired by the research and mission of this book. A self help book that truly leads by example. - Traci
