The Once and Future King by T. H. White - currently on my to-read list but probably won't get around to reading it until 2009. Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov - Read this for the first time in 2007 and really liked it. The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath - One of my all-time favorite books.
The Time-Traveler's Wife - I've picked it up in the book store several times, but every time I read the first part of the book it seems long winded and wordy to me. Yet, I hear very many people talking about what a great book it is. I wondered, is there a place in your lj (or elsewhere) where you have written a spoiler-free review? If not, could you let me know your opinion of 5 really strong parts of the book (character development, plot, intriguing) and 2 really weak points?
Again, no spoilers. If one of the points is "Really great ending", no elaboration please. : )
