Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea - I read quite a lot of non-fiction, and this one was easily my "best" for 2010. Stories of six defectors, rotated among the individuals cliff-hanger style regarding the decision to leave and the progress of their escape plans; honest portrayals of
exactly what the North Koreans are trying to hide!
(At $9.99, I think they may have
