The Wall Street Journal listed 2 thrillers among the top 5 novels for 2009. These were The Lost Symbol (Dan Brown)  and The Associate (John Grisholm). The Lost Symbol was first place. Two of the top 5 have strong romance themes (The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger and The Guernsey Literary and Potatoe Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows).

Both romance and thrillers can get you heart pounding and make you forget the dragging ecomony. Little wonder they’re popular!

Can’t wait to see what 2010 brings!
