Mumsnet
With the Mumsnet Book Club already thriving, we thought it about time we started reviewing grown up books and for this category we want to know what you think is the best book ever written (plenty of scope there then). At some point when we've reached a critical mass we'll be handing out a dazzling literary award to the winning book (watch out Mr Booker) so please add as many reviews as you like and feel free to comment on other folks' choices. As ever, if you have any suggestions for new categories you'd like to see, please send them over to contactus@mumsnet.com.

Not my usual type of book, but once started, I was hooked! It's a very dark, almost sinister plot but one that you find very hard to put down...I still think about the plot 4 years after reading it!

Brillant. This wouldn't normally be my cup of tea but so well writen and so different.

Quirky, gruesome, evocative. Genius how a book can get up one's nose quite so successfully

I've just re read this. (first read it when I was a student) and that was a very long time ago. I loved it just as much second time around. I really recommend it.
