For this challenge I committed to 6 books, hoped to read 8, and ended up with 11! My favorites by far were The Invention of Hugo Cabret, Atmospheric Disturbances, Unaccustomed Earth, and Out Stealing Horses. My least favorites were Breath and On Chesil Beach.
The books I read in order of enjoyment:
- The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick
- Atmospheric Disturbances by Rivka Galchen
- Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri
- Out Stealing Horses by Per Petterson
- A Mercy by Toni Morrison
- After Dark by Murakami (I'm thinking of changing this to a '4')
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling (Too many deaths)
- The Cloud of Unknowing by Thomas H. Cook
- The Gathering by Anne Enright (Even though this is rated higher, it was mostly because of the writing. It's not really a book I 'enjoyed')
- Netherland by Joseph O'Neill
- On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan (I'm thinking of lowering this rating)
- Breath by Tim Winton (I actually liked the first 3/4 of this)
