/lit/ - Literature

Which do you think are the best and worst books of the last 12 years? Do you feel things are getting better or worse? Pic to the left I made last year, is fairly self-explanatory.

I'm interested to get some opinions on this. Nothing like ultra-modern stuff, fresh, and talking about stuff that simply didn't exist more than about 10 years ago, so obviously couldn't be written about. My own favourite 21st century books are in the picture.

That's a picture of my personal favourite 21st century literature, although some will agree, some won't. What books have you read from the 21st century, and what did you think of them?

I made this one a while back.

I think the novel is great these days. I didn't a couple of years ago, but now I've read a bunch of 21st century stuff, and have done a 180. See pic.

No. See picture.

I dunno why, I just added to it a little, based on my reads over the last few months. It's not really the 'best' books of the 21st century, just ones I consider the best or ones I think have some special quality. I tried to keep the number of books per author down, since people complained before.
