The Best 20 Books Ever? Maybe… Authors and Reviewers Think So.
What do authors, and book reviewers, consider the best books they’ve ever read?
I wanted to know the answer to that as well, so I asked the members of my online book club (if you’d like to join, click HERE: being an author is not required) and was surprised by the responses. It is an interesting, and eclectic mix of novels, but what can you expect from a group of bestselling authors and avid readers. In order for them to consider a book to be “The Best” it needs to be pretty special.
Here is the list, in no particular order, of the best books EVER as chosen by the authors, and readers, that hang out in Mike’s Playground and Book Club (Click on the pictures for detailed descriptions):
