I did something similar to this a few years ago and it was a lot of fun, so I've resurrected it this year. I'm asking a slew of authors and other publishing people to name their 3 favorite books they read in 2007. The books don't have to be crime fiction, or fiction at all. They don't even have to have been published in 2007. The only requirement is that the person read it this year and it was one of their favorites.
I'll be posting the picks periodically over the next couple weeks as the responses come in and I get everything together.
Note: Agents and editors were barred from picking their own books.
Uh, can we include our own? Just kidding. Got your invite, David - I'll get my list together.

damn, just realized that the latest Denise Mina and the Henning Menkell I just finished were actually 2006... ok, back to work. Thanks for the invite.
