I'm going to add Hemingway's "For Whom the Bell Tolls" to my list. It's a pretty good book -- but the hushed tones in which enthusiasts speak of it -- I can't understand why! If anything, he waffled a bit. I dunno =P maybe it's just me.
I think I'd appreciate it more if I studied it! It's usually like that. =) You get all whoa understanding the finer nuances of a book and then you start to love it.
