How Reading Changed Author Anna Quindlen's Life

"There was waking, and there was sleeping. And then there were books ... a kind of parallel universe in which anything might happen and frequently did, a universe in which I might be a newcomer but never really a stranger. My real, true world." (Anna Quindlen, 'How Reading Changed My Life')
This list comprises 100 books specifically mentioned in the main text and Acknowledgments section of the book. For Top 10 Lists devised by Quindlen & friends, follow the link.
