Midnights Children - Salman Rushdie
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.

This book haunted me for weeks after reading it. Set in his homeland of India, this allegorical tale is full of evocative descriptions, juggling ideas and plots, time scale and motion with such skill. If you have never read this, go grab a copy as it should be on everyones list of "must reads".
