I think I'll start with Persuasion.

Oh I have that one to read, haven't got around to it yet, but let me know if it's as good as Austens others.

I'm reading Persuasion sometime this year.

We can read it together if you want Martha. Message me when you're reading it. :)

That would be great! I'd like to finish Little Dorrit first so maybe late April or May? I'm very slow with the bricks. LOL

Any time that you want. We could have a buddy read type thing or 'persuade' (no pun intended) a group read of persuasion. :)

I would be up for a Buddy read of Persuasion too :)

Fab! I'll make a buddy reads folder and the topic, then we can start it sometime in the next months or so.

Count me in aswell

I'm in on the group read!

I just finished Gone With the Wind...now onto Angela's Ashes. :)

I'm still reading Angela's Ashes, which I'm enjoying very much, but I would love to be able to punch out the dad!

I've read one by McCourt and didn't like it. Maybe I should try this one.

I finished . It truly was an amazing and inspirational book that everyone should read. I highly recommend it!

Now onto when I get it. :)

I'm currently reading Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging. So far, I'm not enjoying it very much because it seems too juvenile for me. The main character is a 14-year-old girl and I think that is the audience for the book. Maybe, I have been around too many teens lately to truly enjoy it. I'll keep plugging along.... :)

I finished Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging. I'm giving it an okay rating. Pretty juvenile for me and I love most young adult books.

I'm taking a break from reading off my list because I'm mostly studying now. I'm going to try to catch up on the books that I already started. :)

It is a book which is most enjoyable when a mid teen. Luckily I read them when I was.
