1.Pillars of the Earth
I bought this book because I saw it featured on Oprah's Book Club. Despite the fact that the book is 1082 pages long I completed it in 3 days. Believe me it's a real page turner. Who would have thought that a novel set in the twelfth century focusing on a monk and the building of a cathedral would have been so interesting. Ken Follett has a great talent for story telling and description. I was drawn to the 'good' characters and just hated the villain. The novel is so interesting that I hated when the story came to an end.
