NPR's Best Books of 2013

I thought this was pretty awesome. I like how you can just hover over the book to see a brief description or click it to see a longer one with tags. I found some to add to my TBR list definitely.

I've never heard of most of these, but I did just add a few to my TBR. I'm going to have to take some time to really look through.

Thanks for posting!

I find it really interesting that several of the books here are cookbooks, and one book that I clicked on was re-released in the U.S. in 2013. Doesn't that mean it's not really a 2013 book? (It says it was originally published in England in 2008.)

There's another one that was a 1973 book, but re-released in 2013 for the 40th anniversary.

I find that it's best to take most "Best of the year" lists with a grain of salt.
