Your 2011 Best Reads?

[Blindsided]

Conan- Rise of the Cimmerian

All the original Conan stories by Howard. Really good.

Game of Thrones, particularly books 1-3. They were really good, whereas books 4 and 5 were just alright.

Grey Wolf Throne- I was just really pumped for the series so I was excited to read this as soon as it came out. It was okay, just made me want to see the ending though.

I read a lot more but nothing else comes to mind as being exceptionally memorable and good for me, even though a lot of the books I read in 2011 were pretty decent.
