“To-Read” List
Hello readers! Today I’ve noticed for the first time that every time I come across a book I want to read I write it on a piece of paper and, well, forget about it. I found 37 of these notes. Some of the books I’ve already read, but some are still waiting for me to find them! So, I decided that it would be smarter to make an organized list!
The thing is, I rarely find these books when I need them (Murphy’s law, I know) so if I find a book from this list, I’ll mark the name and if it is any good I’ll write a post about it!
Marley & Me – John Groganthe girl who loved tom gordon – Stephen King- the invisible man – H.G. Wells
- Emma – Jane Austen
Big Girls Don’t Cry – Francesca Clementis- clockwork orange - Anthony Burgess
- Lolita - Vladimir Nabokov
Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden- The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho
- A Tale of Two Cities - Charles Dickens
- The Picture of Dorian Gray – Oscar Wilde
- The Glass Castle - Jeannette Walls
Five Quarters of The Orange – Joanne Harris- The Hand that First Held Mine – Maggie O’Farrell
Angela’s Ashes – Frank McCourt- The Curse of a Mind – Destiny Booze
If you have any suggestions for me, I’ll be glad to hear!

I really enjoyed “pride and prejudice” and “northenger abbey”, and I’m a bit worried that “Emma” won’t be as interesting as the others. but I’ll never know unless I try

Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Just had to add two greats to your list. I have Memoirs of a Geisha on the shelf waiting. I’ve tried to read Lolita, but Humbert Humbert makes me sick, which means Nabokov is a really good writer, or perhaps because having two teen daughters I am affected by pedophiles in this way. Anyway, thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. Keep in touch about books any time…I am a book fanatic myself.
