About This Blog

I have always loved to read.  Summer days often found me lurking in the corner of a couch my eyes flickering from word to word, deep in the cavern of literature.  I set out to read The Modern Library's 100 Best Books (both the Board list and the Reader list).  I also thought, as many of these books have already cemented a place in my heart, that I would share my thoughts on each novel, try and put words to why I thought they had made the list.

I had originally intended only to read those books that I had not already enjoyed, but I have since decided to read them all.  Starting at book #100 on the Board's list I will work my way up to the best book then start over again on the Reader's list, this time skipping any books that were previously included on the board list.

I hope in coming here, in reading, that you will find my reviews entertaining, helpful or in some way insightful.

May my literary joy be contagious.
