Literary and Historical Fiction I've Read

A list of the modern/contemporary literary and historical fiction I have read. Not counting actual classics...this list is mostly novels from the last 50ish years. There may be more from school but I can't remember. This is mostly adult, with just a few YA or children books that had more serious themes. I really need to read more historical and cultural fiction! I just keep grabbing other books instead.
