Good looking list! #’s 3, 5, 6 are on my list too.
Ooh, look at those Atwood choices! And I love Curious Incident. Thank you for joining!
I just read Hotel du Lac this fall. I loved it. Good luck on your challenge! I’m still debating whether to join this one… It’s good but talk about challenge overload
What a great list of books!! I defintely need to read the Atwood’s! And Purple Hibiscus is on a list of mine for next year!
I can’t wait to see what you think of “Life of Pi”. It’s one of those books that can be explored in many different ways, on many different levels. I loved it.
