3M's Challenge Wrap-Up

Thanks, Wendy, for a wonderful challenge!

I committed to reading ten and finished ten, though I did switch out some titles. I loved the top three, which were truly outstanding books. I'm really glad I read the middle of the pack, and I could have done without the last two.

Here they are, ranked in order of enjoyment:

1. The Road by Cormac McCarthy


2. Suite Française by Irene Nemirovsky


3. Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie


4. The Translator by Leila Aboulela


5. Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert


6. The Echo Maker by Richard Powers


7. Lisey's Story by Stephen King


8. Last Evenings on Earth by Roberto Bolano


9. The Inheritance of Loss by Kiran Desai


10. Everyman by Philip Roth
