Glad you're joining the challenge!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading Gone With the Wind right now (first book picked from my own 2012 challenge list) and I'll definitely be reading more of the Sherlock Holmes series this year (read the first two novels last year).
The Things They Carried is SO GOOD. I hear good things about some of the others on your list as well, but haven't read any of 'em. Looking forward to seeing what you think.
Good luck!
Thank you....I started reading The Voyage of the Dawn Trader this afternoon to my 8 year-old. It's been sitting in our stack of books for about 2 years. I am going to start reading Gone with the Wind soon but I am reading it with 2 friends and we are going to break it down over several months so we can keep up with book club books. I also read the first two Sherlock Holmes novels and the first collection of short stories last year and I have been itching to read more.
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to reading some of these books and your challenge will help me read them instead of continuing to set them aside.
Oh, I just realized I was suppose to list 12 books and 2 alternates. I guess I will have to read my 2 alternates now since I only listed 10. Hope they are all good.
