The New York Times and The Washington Post have both published their lists of best books for 2004. Check them out here and here while they're still freely available.
I adore year-in-review lists. (And not just for books, I also like music and movies.) It's fun too see how many of the books I've read, and I get lots of ideas for what I want to read next.
On the other hand, the lists do give me that queasy feeling of being chronically underread. I think to myself, I'll never catch up! I try to accept this feeling and then move beyond it, because there are just too many books out there. No one, and I mean no one, will ever catch up. Get used to it!
For all you foodies out there, the NYT has also posted a section on the year's notable cookbooks. Check it out here for the time being.

What if you could read all those books? How queasy would it be if there was nothing left on the list?
