I think this thread was a great idea :) Nice way to keep track.

You've read quite a lot of classics!

I thought that too when I finished the list! It surprised me once I'd compiled it. I guess over the years, they've added up. And still, when I think of classics and what I should be reading, I feel at a loss :)

Well, you have got to a great start, and I'm sure there are tons of books people in this group can recommend and of course we have our group reads, which I can see you join in with. :)

Exactly why I was so thrilled to come across this site and group! I opened my mailbox today to a pkg from Chapters, I was sure it was my "A tree grows in Brooklyn" but nope, it was a Thesaurus I had forgotten I ordered. So, any day now I hope to be joining that discussion ;)

Me too, I have got A Tree Grows in Brooklyn from the library, but haven't had chance to start it yet.
