Oh my God, Ross book voted best ever

DUBLIN 4’s best-loved Celtic Tiger cub Ross O’Carroll Kelly’s latest adventure has been crowned the country’s all-time favourite book.

The Oh My God Delusion was selected by the public from a shortlist of 125 books compiled by Eason’s bookstores to mark its 125th anniversary. It beat heavyweight classics such as To Kill a Mocking Bird and Catch 22 in the online poll.

Thousands of people cast their votes on titles ranging from classics to modern literature, crime novels to children’s books, but it was O’Carroll Kelly who came out on top. Some notable absences from the top 10 included James Joyce’s Ulysses, Oscar Wilde’s Picture of Dorian Gray and even Roald Dahl’s The BFG.
