501 Must-Read Books - Page 4

From the book series by Emma Beare. Since someone already did the movie version, thought I'd add the books. Lots of interesting choices & authors (especially Canadian!). Titles are arranged by category, like in the book. 1-51 are Children's books, 52-111 are Classic Literature, 112-161 are History, 162-211 are Biographies/Memoirs, 212-351 are Modern Fiction, 351-401 Science Fiction, 402-462 are Thrillers/Mysteries, & finally 362-501 Travel Writings. I love learning about literature & different authors. This was a great book.
