Top Ten Tuesday ~ Top Ten Books I Enjoyed but Rarely Talk About

"Top Ten Tuesday" is an original feature/weekly meme created on the blog "The Broke and the Bookish". This feature was created because they are particularly fond of lists at "The Broke and the Bookish".

It is now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

Since I am just as fond of them as they are, I jump at the chance to share my lists with them! Have a look at their page, there are lots of other bloggers who share their lists here.

Books I Enjoyed but Rarely Talk About
(This is for the books you liked, but rarely come up in conversation or rarely fit a TTT topic, etc.)

I have chosen only German books since they are not as well-known abroad. If you are interested in reading more about other countries, this is a selection from my native country. There are more German books in this link.

Becker, Jurek "Jacob the Liar" (Jakob der Lügner) *
Fleischhauer, Wolfram "In a Tender Hold" (Schule der Lügen)
Grass, Günter "Peeling the Onion" (Beim Häuten der Zwiebel)
Hansen, Dörte "This House is Mine" (Altes Land) *
Haushofer, Marlen "The Wall" (Die Wand) *
Kerkeling, Hape "I'm off then: Losing and Finding Myself on the Camino de Santiago" (Ich bin dann mal weg. Meine Reise auf dem Jakobsweg) *
Lenz, Siegfried "The German Lesson" (Deutschstunde) *
Pausewang, Gudrun "The Last Children" (Die letzten Kinder von Schewenborn oder … sieht so unsere Zukunft aus?)
Precht, Richard David "Who Am I and If So, How Many?: A Journey Through Your Mind" (Wer bin ich und wenn ja, wie viele? Eine philosophische Reise)
Rosendorfer, Herbert "Letters Back to Ancient China" (Briefe in die chinesische Vergangenheit)

There are more German books I really love but these are the ones that are not so well known abroad.

*These have been made into movies or tv series.
