  1. I’ve read 10 on this list. A Room of One’s Own (read more than once), Cold Sassy Tree, The Road from Coorain,The Sheltering Sky, and Time and Again being favourites. There are some others on the list I would like to read. So many books, so little time….

    • Perhaps I should feel ashamed for not reading nearly as much as I thought I had … except my reading was usually for younger folk. I do have MANY books waiting for me to enjoy them. On this list the only ones I read are Cold Sassy Tree, Where the Wild Things Are, and a little of Oliver Twist.
      Thanks, Darlene, for always adding your comment; it helps suggest to me which books I should consider. 🙂
