Found this in my Book List tag and decided to update this list (by eliminated read ones, not adding new ones) and will try to read 50% of those left from this list THIS year, purely because it's time to take them off the shelf if they've been there for 3 years!

The Book Thief by Mark Zusak

I can strongly recommend Memoirs of a Geisha!
Also anything Judy Blume ;)
And I really want to read Jane Eyre...

Have you read any other Hemingway?

Yes! I've read The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, and The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories

and OOPS just realized I forgot to cross those off this list!

You didn't miss too much in French Women Don't Get Fat. Basically, they eat yogurt, they drink plenty of water, and they eat balanced, healthy meals when they aren't indulging.

Summer Sisters has been on my shelf... well, I inherited it with this house, and kept it because I want to read it. So who knows how long it has really been there, but to my knowledge, going on 18 months.

Ooooh, and I LOVED Memoirs of a Geisha. I think I read it in two days worth of naptimes and T rides back when I was a nanny.

Yeah I've heard it's fantastic, but I always think of it as being so daunting because it's fairly long.

I actually ended up lending to my mom who read it and gave me the run down so I gave it away. I mean, figures!

Read it!!

I read she's come undone while in Jamaica and loved it - couldn't put it down! I'm reading the lovely bones now but I'm not really into it. I will try to finish though! Thanks again for swapping, lets do it again soon! <3

Yes, it's a good one. Super sad though. I didn't really enjoy Lovely Bones but lots of people do. It's worth a read if only to pick a side. :)

I don't have anything good to swap at the moment except for Sex and the City and Are You There Vodka It's me Chelsea. But am happy to send those to you for two others! xxo
