My "dent" in my reading list consists of 2 books: A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini and Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse.
Both amazing. Hosseini gave incredible insight into the Afghan culture, especially its women, a topic that I was completely ignorant in (although slightly less so now). And I can't really put into words how I feel after reading Siddhartha, but the way that Hesse puts his version of "enlightenment" into words does create a feeling....a good feeling.
Sorry, but I am no book reviewer or writer. My last English class was 8 years ago, and since that time, my main reading fodder has been Harry Potter. So I have to say that this was a small accomplishment of a goal that hopefully will never end.
