View original post3. The Red and the Black ~ Stendhal
The others on your list that I've read make sense to me... this one, I'm not sure I've ever seen listed on anybody's top ten. I've read it and didn't hate it, but it just didn't leave enough of an impression either way for me to even remember much about it... Care to elaborate on what exactly made it so good for you?
Since this was originally a book site...top ten (or so) favorite books?

I interpreted this to mean best books we've read

I wasn't qualifying it based on quality, or else it never would have made an honorable mention

I haven't read Go Set a Watchman, but what I've heard was... bad. Is it actually good?

I loved it because it tore my childhood hero to shreds in a way that I needed to see.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that's why other people hated it, then.

Cooper's DARK IS RISING and Jones' HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE would make my top 20 for sure.

I loved SHOGUN so much as a teenager. No idea how it would hold up on a read today.

Same - and that also goes for Mists of Avalon. Even aside from the MZB ickiness. *NM*

All y'all are cheating by listing a series as one of your favorite books.

As I create my own list, I see I've made a mistake in my derision of the use of series. *NM*
