Well done Siouxie,
This list looks wonderful, I can't wait to start. I've already put a reservation on the first book at the library. Out of the 11 books there's only one I've already read - White Teeth - and I'd love to read this one again, so great choices everyone.

Great idea doing this, my only problem is I am finding it hard to read because the image is oversized and on my laptop it is being covered by the ads on the right hand side, also the font appears very fuzzy to me for the title and author of each book. Sorry to be a whinger - just letting you know.
maybe if Charlie23 could make the image have 4 books to a line, that would allow for a larger font on the title author ???
Thanks

I think the 2010 reading list is fantastic! Only problem is I want to read them all NOW!!! I have put my name on the waiting list for the first 3 books as they are all out at the local libraries. In the meantime I am reading Under the Banner of Heaven by Jon Krakauer, which is about a murder in a fundamentalist mormon community (in continuation from Nov 2009's book), it is a true story and very interesting and Michael J Foxs' Memoir, which I am about to start.

Looks good. I have read Red Tent and Broken Shore out of that lot and there are a couple of others there that I am quite interested in reading.
