USA Today has released their list of what they believe to be the best books of the past decade, with the Harry Potter books being extremely prominent. I’m not sure how they compiled this list, I’m guessing by sales, crossover projects, and movie releases, which unfortunately bumps out a few more deserving books that should have been on this list (other than HP, of course!). Here’s the entire thing:
1. Twilight, Stephenie Meyer
2. The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown
3. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, J.K. Rowling, art by Mary GrandPre
4. New Moon, Stephenie Meyer
5. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, J.K. Rowling, art by Mary GrandPre
6. Harry Potter and the Half- Blood Prince, J.K. Rowling, art by Mary GrandPre
7. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, J.K. Rowling, art by Mary GrandPre
8. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, J.K. Rowling, art by Mary GrandPre
9. Eclipse, Stephenie Meyer
