On the Fly Themed Booklists

Page modified: September 29, 2004

Fiction and Nonfiction themed booklists.

Lists of novels or nonfiction books that received at least one starred review (indicating a work of unusual merit) from the following review sources: Booklist (BL), Publisher's Weekly (PW), Kirkus, and Library Journal (LJ) - or were listed on an American Library Association Notable Books list.

Lists are updated somewhat sporadically - on the fly - depending on publishing trends and Ann the Overbooked's available spare time. Lists may include titles of interest which have not received starred reviews but are also good bets for good reading.

The lists are designed to focus on favorite themes, books that are similiar to selected authors or titles, books with a strong sense of place or time, or selected subgenres.
