10 x 10 # 7 – Best Books of the Noughties

28 Dec 2009

books

I doubt that scholars will think of any of these as classics – but these are my favourite books of the decade – in no particular order:

  • Atonement – Ian McEwan
  • Freakonomics – Levitt and Dubner (my thoughts at the time)
  • Small Island – Andrea Levy
  • I, Lucifer – Glen Duncan
  • Non-fiction – Chuck Palahniuk (my review in 2006)
  • The Bloodstone Papers – Glen Duncan (my review in 2006)
  • A Week in December – Sebastian Faulks (my review earlier this year)
  • Black Earth, A Journey Through Russia After The Fall – Andrew Meier
  • The Long Walk, A True Story of a Trek to Freedom – Slavomir Rawicz
  • Let Me Finish – Udo Grasshoff

What books take pride of place on your shelves at the end of the noughties?
