Website Make Over Features 2011 Favorite Reads

I've been slowly but surely working on revitalizing my website.  You'll find the newest update on my 2011 Favorite Reads page.  For those of you not familiar with the favorite reads section, it is a list of my favorites that I've read during a year--some new books and some older ones.  I have a separate page for every year beginning with 2006.

I added eight books to this year's page just recently, bringing the total number of my favorite reads for this list to fourteen books in a wide range of titles.  So far, all but one are fiction--although some very throughly researched historical fiction.  I'm on the hunt for good non-fiction that is not political to round out my list.  But a book won't get there unless I enjoy the read a lot. 

I'd love to hear your reactions to the books on my list and your suggestions for books I should consider reading.
