Nice choices.I agree about The House at Riverton and The Guernsey book. I think a lot of liked that last one. I haven't read your others but I do have a copy of The Talented Mr. Ripley on my shelves. I guess I should get to it. I enjoyed answering this one.

I would put The Glass of Time on my list too. I need to read Miss Pettigrew after watching the movie this past year.

My list would include 84 Charing Cross Road, A Vengeful Longing, Armadale and Northanger Abbey.

Oh, this is an awesome list. The Glass of Time is on my wishlist and I've got Company of Liars on my TBR pile. Can't wait to read them!

Horray for The Go-Between! We also share Guernsey on the 2008 list.
