Jill's 2007 Notable Reads

Oh boy, this is kind of sad. After reviewing both the 2007 PW Best Books and the 2007 NYT Notables, I have only read two books from these lists:

PW
The Archivist's Story by Travis Holland (review)

NYT
On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan (review)

However, I am slightly consoled to know that three NYT Notables are sitting on my bookshelf, just waiting to be read:

The Abstinence Teacher by Tom Perrotta
Bridge of Sighs by Richard Russo
The Yiddish Policeman's Union by Michael Chabon

I am mulling over how many books I want to read from these notable lists in 2008 - I will be back to post my choices soon!
