Nairaland's Most Talked About Book/author Of The Year by slap1(m): 5:32pm On Dec 09, 2009
hello all. this year is gradually coming to an end and i would want us to nominate the books/authors that were much talked about this year. the books/authors could be popular for their cleverness or the pure lack of it. for the first category i randomly nominate Chimamanda Adichie, Kazuo Ishiguro, Grisham, Dean Koontz, Francine Rivers, Kellerman. . . . will nominate more later. for the later, however, i will nominate Betty Neels, Dean Koontz ( i still have to ), THE ABYSSINIAN BOY. . . . to be continued. it's now over to you!

@dominique,

Don't blame me for being excited about the book (Feddie Girl by Nona David). I am an ex-feddy babe after all and I relate well to the characters and events in the book. wink wink

NINE LIVES by El~Nukoya. I guess the book is not bad, from the reviews, that is. I've not really read it.
