This meme looks fun – which books eventually end up being our favorites? Jen at Devourer of Books tagged me, but the meme was started by Amy at My Friend Amy. I also got tagged by Shana at Literarily and Kathleen at Kathleen’s Book Reviews, but Jen was first, so I’ve gone with her answers.
I am going to list three categories of books. 3 MUST Read Books, 3 Keep Your Eyes on These, and 3 Look For These Soon. Keeping with the theme, I am going to tag at least 3 bloggers. They should put these same lists on their blog but SUBTRACT one book from each list and ADD one of their own. Then they should tag at least 3 more bloggers. It will be fun to see how the lists change as it goes around the blogosphere. Please come back to this post and leave a comment so I can see how the lists are changing as they go around the blogosphere. Since this is Book Buzz…please keep your lists to titles released in 2007-2009.
Stars next to my additions …
3 MUST Read Books:
*When We Were Romans by Matthew Kneale (I just read and LOVED this one)
The Monsters of Templeton by Lauren Groff
One More Year: Stories by Sana Krasikov
3 Keep Your Eyes on These:
*Sweetsmoke by David Fuller

The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson (I think I’d agree with Jen that this is a must read as well)
3 Look For These Soon:
The Dracula Dossier by James Reese
*Feather Man by Rhyll McMaster
Aberrations by Penelope Przekop
Now, who to tag?
– Dawn at She Is Too Fond of Books

I just got “When We Were Romans” so I’m super excited to hear you loved it!!
Oooh, Sweetsmoke, yes! Loved it!
Wow! Not a single one of my picks is on this list, lol!
Have you read Sweetsmoke? I saw it on MiniBookExpo yesterday and couldn’t decide if I should try to claim it. I didn’t, so it’s probably gone by now.
