I'm usually not one for lists -- they're usually either populated with fan favorites or slanted towards critical darlings. Seriously... It's hard to find a true "best of" list that encapsulates a decent middle ground. That said, however, I figured this list was interesting enough to pass along.

Thanks for posting this. Like you, I put little stock in "best of" lists. I do agree with some of the choices here, though I have read only a handful of these books, but one jumps out at me as a WTF? Twilight? Certainly is has gained a following, but having read three of the four books I can say with great certainty that it has nothing to do with the quality of writing.
ReplyDeleteDarn it, Ant, you've made me think.
Same as Laurita, yeah, this list makes me think (ouch!). Lists always annoy me. It's like boxing in or caging something meant to be free. Of course, I'm kinda crazy. XD Thanks for sharing, though. Interesting compilation.
