"This is always an exciting and challenging undertaking," says Webb, 38. This year he read over 300 titles and to narrow them down to the Top 100 Fiction and Non-Fiction books for adults and 10 reads for young readers was not easy. "There are so many talented wordsmiths out there. It's a great problem to have to narrow it down, but I think this year's list is one of our best.
Webb began Conversations Book Club in Nov. 2006 in his home state of Mississippi with the purpose of encouraging reading and spreading the word about talented authors. Over the years he has traveled the South sharing his love of books and inviting others to do the same.
"If we can get just one more person to realize the power of words then all the hard work has paid off," says Webb. "That is my mission each and every day."
