The New York Times has released its best books of 2015 lists.
Instead of releasing one top 10 list like many publications, The Times opted to have three top 10 lists, each one selected by one of the publication’s three daily book critics: Michiko Kakutani, Janet Maslin and Dwight Garner. Each selection includes the book’s title, author, and a description about why it was chosen, along with a link to a review of the book.
The Story of the Lost Child by Elena Ferrante was among the selected works on Kakutani’s list. The Cartel by Don Winslow made Maslin’s list. H Is For Hawk by Helen Macdonald was one of Garner’s picks.
