Perhaps, as you noted, that's what your instructors have in mind.<br /><br />I've only read four on your list. Loved OUT OF AFRICA, but Isak Dinesen's SEVEN GOTHIC TALES is one of my all-time favorite books.kathrynjankowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16708011523767228663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-76299562016904349472010-11-08T22:37:08.493-05:002010-11-08T22:37:08.493-05:00Okey dokey, then.

(I hope that doesn't say anything shallow about me!)<br /><br />I have heard of Kite Runner :) and my daughter, who is busy at college, recently posted on her FB page about how much she LOVED that book and how she devoured it in two days. All the while I'm thinking, "How the heck does this English major kid have time to read for PLEASURE?!!"Name: Holly Bownehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079363337603264641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-50438687526418204272010-11-08T17:46:00.684-05:002010-11-08T17:46:00.684-05:00Great list!

I tend to be drawn to Canadians who have been awarded or nominated for Canadian prizes. It's how I learn about the latest reads. But I do need to expand my book searchers. I'm going to add a few you have listed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-13708308019391073632010-11-08T10:37:48.233-05:002010-11-08T10:37:48.233-05:00I hear the Room is awesome.
