If you have to choose 1 book out of those you read this year, which one would win? The most captivating, thought provoking, thrilling etc...?
For me it was "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett. I felt strongly for the characters like for living people, pitied them, kept my fingers crossed for them, couldn't put it down and re-read it a few months after. It will stay in my memory. Isn't that what makes a good book among other features?
What about you?
