I have to second Trish's comment about The Martian. I listened to it in audio and it was actually my favourite read last year - definitely not an unhappy book! It's not actually the kind of book I'd normally pick up (I'm not a big fan of man vs. nature stories) but the execution of the story was good.

And I have read Natchez Burning and loved it. And want to try The Fever. But, I'm unsure about several - even though more than one of them sits on my Kindle right this minute. Impulse buying. A bad thing for me.

It's fun, when you just know there are books you are never going to read. But I also think that is good, because there are so many books out there, and it's good to know your tastes. As long as we venture outside our comfort zones every once in awhile. :)Quinn @ Quinn's Book Nookhttp://quinnsbooknook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5128730358349082407.post-4399886818068091242015-05-05T12:14:26.470-05:002015-05-05T12:14:26.470-05:00Good list, and I love how you came up with the tit...Good list, and I love how you came up with the titles! I do want to read The Martian, and I'm not ruling out All The Light We Cannot See because our book group might read it, but other than that, I'm not likely to pick up any of these, either.
