A Short Not the Usual List of Books List

Getting bored with trawling through lists of books containing The Hobbit, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill and Mockingbird and the other usual suspects? Then this short list of books that I've read over the years might be for you. I've tried to give a varied mix of lesser read novels, from well known authors, that I've enjoyed over the years. Hopefully you might read a couple and enjoy them too!
