Continuing on the theme of my earlier post, here are some books I felt are the ten I enjoyed the most.

  • Getting Things Done by David Allen

    I have been a great fan of GTD ever since I heard about it. All I can say is it works!

  • The Dark Tower by Stephen King

    The final book of King’s Dark Tower saga ended what I felt was an eventful journey with Roland Deschain.

  • The Ancestor’s Tale by Richard Dawkins

    I picked up this book on a whim and wow! what a wonderful choice it was. The theory of evolution could never be explained in more simpler terms.

  • Pig Island by Mo Hayder

    If there was one book that really terrified me this year, it was this one.

  • The Stand by Stephen King

    Another excellent tale by King about good and evil. definitely the largest book I read this year.

  • The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins

    All I can say is that everyone ought to read this book.

  • Gene by Stel Pavlou

    Though the storyline was pretty lame, the idea behind the novel was brilliant.

  • The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly

    The thought of fairy-tales having a dark side was pretty much frightening. I can never read a fairy-tale the same way again.

  • Talk to the Hand by Lynne Truss

    A book about manners? Well-written, I never knew I was guilty of so many breaches.

  • Lisey’s Story by Stephen King

    I am becoming a fan of Mr. King’s writing, book after book. It is not the tales, but the way he uses words to bring them to life. Absolutely brilliant. I am putting up his book, On Writing, on my 2008 reading list.
