15 Books

I saw this on facebook and thought it was fun!

Fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you, the first 15 you can recall in less than 15 minutes.

1. What to Expect When You're Expecting (huge surprise, I know)
2. Hold Tight, Harlan Coben - just got it from my mother-in-law & started it last night!
3. A Wrinkle in Time - one of my all-time favorites
4. the Harry Potter series (no need to list all 7)
5. The Scandalous Summer of Sissy LeBlanc
6. The Woods, Harlan Coben
7. The Shack - don't like it, can't force myself to finish it
8. The Secret Garden
9. A Thousand Splendid Suns - the only book club book I read and loved it!
10. My Father's Dragon - my dad read this old book to me, as well as my younger sister and brother, before bed when we were little
11. the Babysitters Club series - I read seriously all 100+ of these and even wrote a letter to the author, who sent me back an autographed head shot!
12. The Giver - I didn't read this until I took Children's Literature in college & loved it!
13. Danny, Champion of the World, Roald Dahl - I still remember my dad coming to read this in my 5th grade class
14. Confessions of a Shopaholic, Sophie Kinsella - I read this looooooong before the movie came out!
15. DaVinci Code - I hopped on the bandwagon and read this (along with a ton of other books!) when I worked in Arkansas one summer. I liked it, but loved Angels & Demons more.

I struggled to come up with 13-15 and once I typed 15 I remembered probably 15 more! I LOVE reading and having the time to read. I guess I better work on stack of books I have left before baby comes. I bought a huge, thick Jane Austen anthology with 7 of her books, and I still want to read Julie & Julia, Wesley the Owl, Thirteen Stories, Pillars of the Earth (which is almost halfway completed), and I wouldn't mind trying to squish in all of Harlan Coben's books I haven't read yet!
