I picked out my favorite literary-ish reads amid the shameful sea of smut that I consumed this year...hey! I took the LSAT! Give me a break!
- The Book Thief - Markus Zusak
- The Secret History - Donna Tartt
- The Stone Diaries - Carol Shields
- I Capture the Castle - Dodie Smith
- The Bone graphic novel series - Jeff Smith
- We Have Always Lived in the Castle - Shirley Jackson
- The Magician's Elephant - Kate DiCamillo
- The Hakawati - Rabih Alameddine
- When Everything Changed - Gail Collins
- In the Valley of the Kings - Terrence Holt
And if I absolutely had to pick the best of the best it would be
In the Valley of the Kings - Terrence Holt. It's just phenomenal.
