I think that a great book is:
- enjoyable
- challenges conventional thinking
- makes you fell like you are better for having read it
- makes you think about it long after you've finished it
- is complete but makes you want to re-read it.

Rohinton Mistery's "A Fine Balance" is a book that comes to mind even though it was an Oprah book of the month pick.
