The best book from the year that i have read was:
Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss.
A new author that has some real promise. http://www.amazon.com/Name-Wind-Kingkiller-Chronicle-Day/dp/075640407X /ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1196177059&sr=8-1
Check out REMEMBER THE ALOE, MOE by James Hold. I found it on Amazon and it’s very funny.
I’ve only heard of two of these books and only read one (HP clearly…). I think the 100 most important books of 2007 in England would be very different. Or perhaps I just haven’t kept up with new releases like I should have…
I feel so ignorant. I have only heard of the Harry Potter book and I haven’t even read that. Which means I also haven’t read the Pierre Bayard book, “How To Talk About Books You Haven’t Read”. So I have nothing to talk about.
Besides Harry Potter, my favorite book this year was On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan. Thanks to that book, I am now a HUGE McEwan fan. His best book is Atonement.
Using that list, seems like 2007 was a pretty boring year – bookwise.
Allan Weisbecker’s ‘Can’t You Get Along With Anyone’ not on the list?
So much for the list. Nice try, anyway.
