The Book List.
It’s a rainy day as I’m typing this, and it just so happens to be the perfect day to “finish” up my book list. Well it’ll never be quite finished, but hey, I’ve got to take advantage of the weather! (Rainy, gloomy, tornado-watchy weather always calls for curling up with a good book- or anything to do with books for that matter..) The quote from Beauty and the Beast, “With a dreamy far-off look, and her nose stuck in a book…” basically describes me to a tee! I should have dressed up as Belle for the above picture, but my treasured hardcovers will have to do! :) So here is my book list, let me know if you have any recommendations?
I’m currently collecting hardcovers for my future home-library (ahh, a girl can dream) All of the books pictured above were pretty cheap, and they just happen to be some of my favourites!

O.K. got the book list…..silly me …right there under my nose. I am going to assume that you don’t have the books in the ” To Read list” and I’m @ liberty to pick from that list to my heart’s content?
That’s a yes or no question BTW soldier girl. Yes ma’am or no ma’am.
‘Tis the season to buy presents….falalalala-lala
You’re right! :) Although I do have Gone with the Wind, just haven’t read it yet. Love ya!
WHAT NATALIE!! you havent read Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre yet??? you are totally missing out!!!!!!! i have the book at home, somewhere….see if i can bring it back for you. It is A-MAZING!
By the way, North and South (the BBC movie) is totally awesome and youd love it. I’m sure its a book out there somewhere. It’s totally Jane Austen style and a million hours long like the original Pride and Prejudice. We will watch it together sometime! GIRLS NITE!!
I know, what a shame!! I have seen the movie though (Jane Eyre) Ahh, that’ll be great!! :) Hmm, I’ll have to google it haha.. It sounds pretty good, girls night for sure!!!
