Great Books

Here are some reviews of really great books to read. This list focuses mainly on novels of the 20th Century.

A book can be considered great for many reasons.

Great ideas, great writing, great characters, great plot or great effect on the reader are what define whether a book is a great book or just a good book. Of course it is all subjective, so just get reading.
