8. The Stone Diaries by Carol Shields. Won the Pulitzer Prize in 1993. I picked it up at our church's book sale last summer for $1 -- can't say that I would have gravitated toward it in a book store or sought it out. But it was a really beautiful novel -- the story of a woman from her birth through her death, told from the interchangeable perspective of the people in her life, and occasionally from her own perspective. Haven't decided whether I'll put it back in the donation box for next year or if I'll keep it as part of our "library."
9. A Year in Provence by Peter Mayle. Love Provence. Love the French. Have an unshakable urge to go bask in the sun outside of a cafe eating, drinking, smelling the lavender and gazing out at the vineyards.
