Start by not reading the NY Times, magically you have more time. Also you get fewer notable books shoved down your throat.
I read Harry Potter and at least two reviews of How to Talk About Books You Haven’t Read and another two or three about Tree of Smoke (which everyone loves, except one guy who thinks it’s a piece of crap… go figure). A bunch of the others sound pretty interesting, though. And I read another book by Junot Diaz – loved it.

Man Gone Down (by Michael Thomas) looks good, though.

I’m almost done with the Junot Diaz, and I think I’m gonna marry him. Also, What is the What was most excellent.
That’s right. I got three. What.

No, not even Harry Potter! I think I read the first two HP books before I got bored. Also, yer a frickin’ smarty pants, you know that?

I haven’t read those either. However, perhaps the first one we all need to read is “How to Talk About Books You Haven’t Read”. LOL The irony!
I have read a couple best sellers this year though so I think this list isn’t 100% accurate. Heck, they were even NYTimes Best Sellers.
