Bad Reader

I found this at Lazygal's blog:

The top 20 book club bestsellers for 2010 from Bookmovement.com [her link--but I ended up actually finding the list here] based on readers' choices are:

• The Help by Kathryn Stockett
• The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
• Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
• Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford
• The Next Thing on My List by Jill Smolinski
• Little Bee by Chris Cleave
• A Reliable Wife by Robert Goolrick
• Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout
• Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese
• The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows
• Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
• The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
• The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein
• Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert
• The Glass Castle: A Memoir by Jeannette Walls
• The Wednesday Sisters by Meg Waite Clayton
• The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery
• The 19th Wife by David Ebershoff
• The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton
• Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson

Of those, I've read only the last one on the list. There are, perhaps, two or three others I wouldn't mind looking at. The others? Meh. I think it's official: I'm jaded about (ahem) "literary" fiction.
