Critics' Favourites: Books

Every year, critics publish 'top 10' lists ranking their favourite works released that year. The collections on this page are created by aggregating hundreds of these rankings and ordering each title by how frequently it appears across them. The result is a consensus snapshot of the movies, books and TV shows most widely acclaimed by critics each year.
