21st Century Best Books: Books that Stuck with us
byRachel Martens and Janette Afsharian
The top 100 books of the 21st Century! Wait, is that clickbait, New York Times? Why yes, yes it is, and we clicked on it. You say the words ”100” and ”century” and then we click and see it's all recent books and then realize – HOLD UP! They meant the BEST books since the ye old year of 2001? Oh. That's a bit anti-climactic. But we're here for it. And we share what books from this list stayed with us long after we closed the back cover (or hit stop on the audiobook). Plus Rachel throws in a book that's not on the list. You know why? Because she can! Are you one of the million fans of Elena Ferrante? Then go get Lies and Sorcery by Elsa Morante translated by Jenny McPhee.
