Description: Top Ten Lists: Books showcases some of literature's greatest moments, characters and concepts. With over 100 top ten lists paying homage to the literary world's greatest achievements, this is an essential companion for book-lovers everywhere. The top ten lists cover a full spectrum of subjects, including historic masterpieces, classic romantic heroines, Scandi thrillers, children's classics and magical realism. With the likes of Thomas Hardy and John Grisham potentially rubbing shoulders, the question of subjectivity is unavoidable, but whether or not you agree with the lists, they should hopefully prompt you to remember, discuss and maybe even discover hitherto unexplored genres.
