Best New Books of 2010 – Get Lit!

Filed under: Books — mcmerb @ 1:13 pm

Ever feel that you’ve missed something important – not like a dentist appointment, but rather information or a happening that everyone else became aware of while you were sitting alone in a dark room? Well, this announcement could be the very thing you need to shed a little light on.

Amazon Book editors just released their selection of the Best New Books (so far) of 2010!

by Brady Udall

Hmm . . . so many to choose from. Personally, think I’ll start with this one because I love a review that contains the words “hilarious” and “beautifully written,” and I’m drawn to any writer whose work is compared to that of John Irving . . .

And by John Heilemannmaybe then work my way over to this one because, how can I resist . . . “Juicy, Juicy, Juicy. Great fun. Great gossip. Great look into the world of Political Campaigning. And one word sticks in my mind after reading it — dysfunction” . . . ?

Hope there’s a title or two on this list that pull the string on YOUR light bulb!

    • You are welcome, Bev. Be sure to spread the word about good books you’re reading, OK? (Life’s too short to read bad books!)

    • You’ve already read a bunch of bad ones — more than once. Not remembering can be a gift . . . :)
