Any feedback on this list?

The Night Watch by Sarah Waters

Juliet, Naked by Nick Hornby

The Crimson Petal and the White by Michel Faber

The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy

The Double Bind by Chris Bohjalian

The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz
I just read Juliet, Naked and I liked it a lot. It helps if you have lived with music snobs tho
