Your list sounds fantastic.
Roots and White Orleander are two of my favourite reads, Papillon was pretty incredible too :D
Happy reading <3
@brokenenemy - Oh I love roots <3 It made me cry a great deal, but it's a wonderful story!
Thank you, hon!
@NoHeroJustNerd - You're welcome :)
Nice booklist, I haven't read lemony snickett series of unfortunate events book one, but I've read book eight and saw the movie. I like it. Although I haven't searched for the rest in awhile. :(
@DRWispureofheart - Thank you! :) I'm working my way through it!
I'm not really into books. But then, I do buy books for myself if I feel of reading it for a long time. Hopefully you'll complete the list.
@Murazrai - I see. Well, the list keeps on growing, so I'm not sure I will.
A very strong list. I don't know you, but I feel like I want to lend them all to you; I have at least half of them. Cuckoo's Nest, 1984, the Snicket Series, Hitchhiker's, and Catch-22 in particular. And Good Omens. That's my favorite book of all time.
*Applaud*
@Grimoirist - Oh, I so badly want to read them all! :D I wish I could read all day sometimes, but school kinda craves attention. Thank you!
Good luck with Proust. The full text of "In Search of Lost Time" is 6 volumes and weighs in at over 1,250,000 words.
@rhinosaur767 - Thank you, good person.
Now you have some progress. Keep it up!
