I can't be expected to look through a List of 100! What do they think I'm made of, time?

Here are the ten best books. Ah. Your Shopping is done.

Do I have to feel bad about not having read a single one of them?

I'll agree with Tree of Smoke, but the others? Not so much.

Well, it wasn't perfect. It got off to a rocky start, but then began to build on it's layers.

Ah. It's the annual NYT-book-must-have Industrial Complex.

I'm not spending the $25.99 for the first editions, or whatever new books cost these days. I'll wait till they come out in paperback and are in the 25 cents bin at the public library.

I just wait for the movie.
Or, failing that, the video game.

I've liked Roberto Bolano stories recently in the NY'er; haven't read the book (or the others either).

My system wouldn't display that web page at the moment. Did the list include Kipling's Kim? Steinbeck's East of Eden?

Why not?
