Top Ten Most Unique Books I Have Ever Read

This week was really hard for me, because there are so many books and ideas currently floating around that it is hard to find something truly original. I mean, supposedly there are only 7 basic plots in literature and these plots just keep getting reused over and again. So, I tried to find books that were unique for at least one reason, even if I didn’t love the book and even if some parts or the rest of the book aren’t as original.



1. The Knife of Never Letting Go (Chaos Walking #1) by Patrick Ness

I thought that the concept of the "noise" was pretty unique. Only men's thoughts are released into the "noise", and while women can hear the "noise", their thoughts are not released into the "noise."



2. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

This was unique in that the narrator is Death.

Top Ten Books I Wouldn't Mind Santa Bringing Me



1. Dangerous Women edited by George R. R. Martin and Gardner R. Dozois

This has a lot of great authors – my have-to-reads on the list are George R. R. Martin, Jim Butcher and Brandon Sanderson.





2. Shadowdance (Darkest London #4) by Kristen Callihan

Callihan’s Darkest London series is one of my favorite series. It is a mix between steampunk, urban fantasy and paranormal romance.
