James Clavell Shogun for $2.99. Nearly 1500 reviews with a 4.8 score. Whole lotta love.
Richard Lattimore translation of The Odyssey of Homer for $1.99. 2x the reviews, but only 4.3 stars. D'Oh!
Yiyun Li The Vagrants for $1.99. 63 reviews and 4.0 stars. The book is still fairly young. Maybe it'll settle down when it's older.

I loved "Shogun" I've read it 2 or 3 times. Great book!
The "Odyssey"? I had to read it in school, it's got an emotional baggage that I can't get rid of. Short sighted, I know.
"Vagrants"? - I'm gonna look into it.
