The best book I read last year was Augustus, A Novel by John Williams. I'm so glad that Daniel Mendelsohn convinced me to read it!
Williams' Stoner was good too (all credits to herself_nyc  for recommending it), but I prefered Augustus. It is so well written, so touching, and so good at reviving historical moments.
