I suppose the reason I love to write comes largely from the fact that I love to read. So in honour of hogmanay and NYResolutions I thought I'd accept this challenge handed down by one of my followers on Twitter. The following are books that I have been putting off for years or have managed to get half way through then push to one side. There are a few titles that I have always wanted to read an never owned, but this is the year to rectify that!
The list is as follows;
2. War and Peace - Leo Tolstoy
3. Crime and Punishment - Fyodor Dostoevsky
4. The Big Nowhere - James Elroy
5. LA Confidential - James Elroy
6. The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas
7. Don Quixote - Miguel de Cervantes
8. Notre-Dame de Paris (The Hunchback of Notre-Dame) - Victor Hugo
9. Porno - Irvine Welsh
10. The Shining - Stephen King
11. The Bourne Identity - Robert Ludlum
12. Cock and Bull - Will Self
My two alternatives:
1. Shooting Sean - Colin Bateman
2. Persuasion - Jane Austen
Perhaps you would like to venture yourself into the challenge? Good luck and happy reading!
