While I believe that it's important to try to stretch outside our comfort zones, I think it's unreasonable to expect that these books would necessarily blow our minds.

Your list certainly shows that.Meytal Radzinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15805413335735169073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3090908127206488708.post-18290223686874903962011-11-09T19:22:07.750-05:002011-11-09T19:22:07.750-05:00How cool that you met Dave Eggers!

I h...Great list! We seem to have similar tastes. <br /><br />I have always meant to read Stephen Hawking, William Faulkner, and James Joyce but haven't yet.<br /><br />Lolita is definitely out of my comfort zone, and I haven't been brave enough to try it yet, despite its renown.<br /><br />I also enjoyed The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and wasn't thrilled with a Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius.<br /><br />Sue<br /><br /><a href="http://bookbybook.blogspot.com/%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">Book By Book</a>Sue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.com
