Welcome to the Penguin parade. Some of the more eagle eyed among you may have noticed that a lot of the books I have been buying as of late are from the Modern Library 100 Best Novels list, which I think will be featuring heavily in my reading in the new year. Not entirely sure how I am going to approach that one, but hopefully it will expose me to a number of authors and writing styles I’ve previously been too intimidated to try.
