I've read several books on this list but there are also a few I won't be reading in my lifetime (except in bizzarre circumstances that I don't see ever happening! lol) such as The Twilight Saga, The Shack and Eat Pray Love (gmta!)!<br /><br />One immensely popular book that didn't work for me is Ken Follett's Pillars of the Earth (I think that's the title!) <br /><br />I am utterly confused by The Giving Tree being on this list! Oh well, each to his own!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20402592.post-32284571092838297642011-07-18T08:13:02.514-05:002011-07-18T08:13:02.514-05:00B-B--

Just "readers," but they seem to have pretty quirky tastes.<br /><br />Kaye--<br />Haven't read The Book Thief, but it definitely sounds like something I'd like. I'm glad to find somebody who liked Moby Dick!
