Tracey Thorn's ten favorite books

Tracey Thorn is an English singer, songwriter and writer, best known as being one half of the duo Everything but the Girl.

One of her ten favorite books, as shared at Vulture.com:
On the Road, by Jack Kerouac

Another one I read as a teen. And didn’t just read, but carried around with me, wore it like a badge, thought it said everything about who I was: a beatnik in suburbia. I haven’t read it since, and part of me thinks now it might be awful. But I will stay true, and state for the record how much I loved it at 19.

On the Road is one of Ted Conover's six favorite road books.
