My Favourite Books...

I read a lot...it's true, though not as much as I should.  Some people say I'm a bit of a literary snob.  That is only partly true.  Ok so I think Daniel Steel and Jodi Picoult are trash, but if that is what it takes to get you turning pages, then go right ahead. Anyway, here is a list of some of my all time fave reads....

1. A Fine Balance - Rohinton Mistry
2. The Poisonwood Bible - Barbra Kingsolver
3. The Glass Castle - Jeanette Walls
4. She's Come Undone - Wally Lamb
5. A Tree Grows in Brooklyn - Betty Smith
6. Clara Callan - Richard B. Wright
7. The Diviners - Margaret Laurence
8. Fall on Your Knees - Ann-Marie MacDonald
9. The Blind Assassin - Margaret Atwood
10. Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte
11. Empire Falls - Richard Russo

There could have been so many honourable mentions, but these are the ones that have affected who I am.  These are the ones that when they are mentioned by some one, I can't shut up about, I could talk about them all day.  Anyway, I thought some one out there might be interested in what I read.  Would love to hear some feedback about this...What are your fave reads??
