I read so many for reviews it's hard to choose one out of them all. For sheer fun and originality, I loved Holly's Inbox by Holly Denham. I saw Rough Country on King's list which is exciting because I have a review copy of that. I need to read faster to get to it. :)

Drood by Dan Simmons I like the sound of because it's so different.

The last years of Charles Dickens, as narrated by his increasingly unstable colleague Wilkie Collins. This is a beautifully realized historical novel, but it's also a modern tale that chronicles the descent of a great mind into dope-fueled madness.

It struck me as funny that there aren't many horror titles on the list.
