10 Forgotten 2000s Books That Are Perfect From Start to Finish
Collider has published a list highlighting ten novels from the 2000s that the author believes deserve more recognition today. The decade produced major bestsellers such as the Harry Potter series and The Da Vinci Code, but the list instead focuses on well-regarded books that have since faded from public conversation despite their quality.
The selection spans genres from young adult fiction to fantasy and literary fiction, aiming to offer something for every type of reader. Highlighted titles include John Green's An Abundance of Katherines (2006), Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell's The Curse of the Gloamglozer (2001) from the Edge Chronicles series, and Karl Ove Knausgård's A Time for Everything (2009), each praised for distinctive storytelling, worldbuilding or philosophical depth.
