Just a few books I've read in the recent past. This list includes some good, some not so good.
I'd say The Sidekick's Initiative was surprisingly good, plus it was funny - highly recommended.
The top books in the list for me were:
Shuggie Bain
Girl, Woman, Other
Barkskins
Gilead
Wise Blood
Don't Bother books for me were:
John Dies at the End
The Knife of Never Letting Go
Plain Bad Heroines
Trout Fishing in America is more of an Experience than anything else. Worth a read only if you're curious about his writing.
