Reading Statistics

This is the annual post that proves I am a geek about numbers as well as books. As in the past, I've compiled a list of books I read in 2009, beginning with the standard list of Titles Rated:

Most Memorable {these not necessarily Literary, but they stuck in my head}
Tunnels, by Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams
The Uncensored Bible, by John Kaltner, Steven L. McKenzie, and Joel Kilpatrick
The Last Synapsid, by Timothy Mason
Girl Sleuth, by Melanie Rehak
Rasskazy (edited by Mikhail Iossel and Jeff Parker)

Best
Just After Sunset, by Stephen King (on CD)
Columbine, by Dave Cullen
People of the Book, by Geraldine Brooks
Every Man Dies Alone, by Hans Fallada
The Thirteenth Tale, by Diane Setterfield (on CD)

Least Memorable {books I remember NOTHING about, based on title alone}
Rules of Thumb, by Tom Parker
I Can't Tell You, by Hillary Frank
Everyman, by Philip Roth (on CD)
Smile When You're Lying, by Chuck Thompson

Yuck

Ishmael, by Daniel Quinn
Sisterchicks Do the Hula, by Robin Jones Gunn (on CD)
Ten Days in the Hills, by Jane Smiley (on CD)
