Reading Year in Review - 2013 Edition
Last New Year's Eve, I made a resolution to read one-hundred books in 2013.

Wow, that is a lot, and I mean *lot* of books! Way to go for making a resolution and sticking to it! I really agree with your assessment of The False Prince, I love a Gen like character as much as the next Sounisian, but Gen-like and imitation!Gen are not the same thing XD And for the record, Anything anyone can do, Gen can do better! Except possibly for singing....:)
I love, love, love The Importance of Being Earnest! If you liked reading the play, you should watch the movie...It has Colin Firth in it, so that's already a plus XD I think we strted to read She Stoops to Conquer, but we didn't finish it.
Anything yu think we'd like?

It's from Work: A Story of Experience, which I have not read but plan to.

Eugenides: Oh, you think Connor is a great name for a backstabbing villian? //feigns fear// Save us from Connor!
Keh... XD
I've seen live play versions of Importance, but never the movie. Should check that out.
Well first, you should finish She Stoops to Conquer!
Here's a few. I especially think you'd like the Sweet Seasons series.
