What Do You Really Think?


A list on aol.com comprising one person's choice of the top ten books you should read before you die has whipped Miama Herald book blogger Connie Ogle into a mild frenzy. Her response, entitled "Stupidest. List. Ever.", is a nice salvo against middlebrow reading. Admittedly, that's a soft target, but you have to admire her gusto:

"7. Angels and Demons, Dan Brown. Now COME ON, aol.com writer! This doesn't even make the Top 10 Cheap Thrill Beach Books You Should Read Before You Finish that Margarita."

Yay, Connie.--David E
