A few weeks ago, The New York Times Book Review published a piece entitled The 100 Best Books of the 21st Century and it has garnered lots of attention. Here's a look at the list, along with highlights, a reading guide, and more.
As the weather starts to turn colder, there’s nothing like curling up with a good book. The list of titles coming out this fall is packed with must-reads. This week we feature ten new and upcoming books, along with suggestions of what you can read first.
The Pulitzer. The Man Booker Prize. The National Book Awards. The Edgar Awards. All of them generally mean one thing: the books they're awarded to definitely don't suck. In fact, they're brilliant and incredible and moving and mesmerizing and disturbing and powerful and funny and, well...you'll just have and read them for yourself. Below are the winners of the most prestigious prizes, so enjoy.
