Has everybody seen the recent NYTimes feature in which they compiled the votes of 500+ writers and other publishing luminaries and created a list of the 100 best books of the twenty-first century so far?

They also offered a ballot where readers can supply their own 10 titles. Here are mine!

1. Circe by Madeline Miller
2. Gilead by Marilynne Robinson
3. The Fifth Season by N. K. Jemisin
4. White Teeth by Zadie Smith
5. There There by Tommy Orange
6. The Bees by Laline Paull
7. The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay by Michael Chabon
8. The Magicians by Lev Grossman
9. Ninety-Nine Stories of God by Joy Williams
10. Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel

I assume by the time most of you read this, the ballots will be closed, peaches, but I’d still like to know what you would pick!
