USA Today created its list of the top ten best-selling books of the decade (2000s). These best-selling scribbles (books) were made into flicks (movies). How cool! I was shocked to see that the Twilight Saga and the Harry Potter series dominated the list. The literary decade was marked by two youth market books that crossed over into the adult market. What must the aliens think? The Da Vinci Code is the only “grown up” book on the list. It is the only book on the list that I have actually read. BTW - I do read youth books – just haven’t read these. Clearly, I am behind the times and need to get with it. Massinhater, I am not. On to Twilight.
What do you think of the list?
