books of 2009.

2009 is coming to a close, and to recognize the ending of this year, i am going to list some books that have really stood out to me these past 12 months.

no particular order.

they didn't necessarily come out in 2009, that's just when i read them.

  • generation dead (david waters)
  • paper towns (john green)
  • the bermudez triangle (maureen johnson)
  • peeps (scott westerfeld)
  • looking for alaska (john green)
  • perks of being a wallflower (stephen chbosky)
i thought there would be more, but i guess that's it.
