50 Book Challenge
#74 God Don't Like Ugly ~Mary Monroe (great book)
#75 Lifeguard ~ James Patterson.
So I am thinking that I may be done for the year. I have another James Patterson book that I snagged from my parents that I can probably finish before Monday. 75 sounds like a nice round number however. We shall see. I need something to keep me occupied on the bus. I will be doing the challenge again in the coming year, however instead of doing what I did this year, which was tack on 10 books to the previous year (I think I was trying to read 68 books) I think I am going to do 50 books, with at least 5 of them being classics. So what are some of your favorite classics that are absolute must reads?? I have a few that I have tried but I get bored....I do need to expand my reading horizon however. I am up to suggestions!!

"The Great Gatsby" of course! My all time favorite ever! Also: "The Sun Also Rises", "To Kill A Mockingbird", "Gone With The WInd", "Lord of the Flies", "The Glass Menagerie", "The Turn of the Screw", "The Crucible", "the Scarlett letter", "Little Women"
Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier is my all-time favorite. I too need to read more classics, good idea!
Owen Meany by James (?) Irving. One of the best ever...it was made into a cheesy hollywood movie-simon birch or whatever. But the book is on my top ten for all time. Easy read as well. Lisa (sis)
