Before I became a graduate student renovating a house, a used to read a lot more than I do now. Now, I read art theory and magazines on home remodeling. In my past life, I was a voracious reader. According to my “Book Book”, which I started in 2002, these are some of the best books i have read in the past five years (in no particular order):
- Perfume, by Patrick Suskind
- The Corrections, by Jonathon Franzen
- Poisonwood Bible, by Barbara Kingsolver
- Cruddy, by Lynda Barry (anything by her will leave you laughing outloud)
- Blue River, by Ethan Canin
- Feast of Love, by Charles Baxter
- Sandman (anything) by Neil Gaiman
- Middlesex, by Jeffrey Eugenides
- David Sedaris
- Cod, by Mark Kurlansky
This is just a small sampling of mostly fiction, but I highly recommend all of these books. Now step away from your computer screen and open a book.
