To make it more challenging, I disallowed children's books and nonfiction. Also, no repeats of geographical terms. I only chose books that I have read and loved.
A Bend in the River by V. S. Naipaul
Infinite Country by Patricia Engel
A Place Where the Sea Remembers by Sandra Benitez
Main Street by Sinclair Lewis
The Custom of the Country by Edith Wharton
On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan
Empire Falls by Richard Russo
The Light Between Oceans by M. L. Stedman
The Hills is Lonely by Lillian Beckwith
Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami
Small Island by Andrea Levy
The Coast of Chicago by Stuart Dybek
People of the Valley by Frank Waters
The Inn at Lake Devine by Elinor Lipman
Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories by Sandra Cisneros
The Bridge of San Luis Rey by Thornton Wilder
Have you read any of these?
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Each Tuesday That Artsy Reader Girl assigns a topic and then post her top ten list that fits that topic. You’re more than welcome to join her and create your own top ten (or 2, 5, 20, etc.) list as well. Feel free to put a unique spin on the topic to make it work for you! Please link back to That Artsy Reader Girl in your own post so that others know where to find more information.
