The Top Shelf: Books I've Given 5-Star Ratings on Goodreads - Page 2

I'm hardly a literary lion. In fact, I'm not even a literary tomcat. But I like to discuss literature and I like to rate things, so I'm indulging two hobbies here. I consider this list to be a canny mix of fiction and non-fiction, kind of like a good first date.
