Time magazine's yearly "Best Books" list was first published in 1996. The format has changed over the years, ranging from 10 to 30 books, usually categorized by fiction and non-fiction, with the exception of 2006. Children's books were added in 2008 & 2009.

When adding new books to the list, use the former entries as an example. Fiction is .30 -> .21 (with #1=.30, #10=.21) - Non-fiction is .20 -> .11 (#1 = .20 through #10=.11) and Children's is .10 to .1 (#1=.10 though #10 = .1) - this format will allow the correct display since Time ranks the books and order of display on LibraryThing is important.
