I vow to quit doing this, but once again this holiday season, in the spirit of promoting reading and proving what a geek I am, here are my top book picks for 2009.

I’ve made the choice from the books I’ve read this year (too many to list) that moved me in some way, or simply made me laugh out loud.

The final selections:

6. Sister of My Heart by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni

5. My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult

4. A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini

3. Three Cups of Tea by Greg Morteson

2. The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger

And the best book I’ve read this year is:

1. Night by Elie Wiesel
