You've got some great reads on this list, and some that I haven't read but want to. I'm going to be doing this one too but I haven't got my whole list yet - I have a feeling I'll be copying some of your choices!
You have just given me some more to add to mine - THANKS :D
*blinking Nora!* LOL What a list! I am very impressed. I also think you should edit this and take some credit for the challenge because I wouldn't have ever started even thinking about it if it wasn't for you. Very pleased to see Angel on that list. You'll love it.
You are so going to hit 50 books!!!
Wow, you're aiming high! Good luck, I hope you reach that total! *Fingers crossed*.
I've joined too. I'm going to aim for the 12 books, but may go that bit further. We'll see :)
