My Favorite: Contemporary Adult Novel (Last Five Years)
Gilead - Marilynne Robinson
This was a no-brainer really. It's likely the best Christian-themed work of literature since the 1940s. It has some of the most beautiful passages I've ever read, too.
Marilynne Robinson has a pretty interesting interview in Sojourners this month, also. I think you can read it if you sign up and log in. It's toward the bottom of the page - "Seeing the Holy."
Runners Up:
Empire Falls - Richard Russo
Life of Pi - Yann Martel
