I like your list...esp. To Kill a Mockingbird...that's one I want to read again soon. Have you read this book that is all of the rage called Eat, Sleep, Pray...or something like that? Some ladies in my yoga class were saying that is why our class was so full..because of that book. Do you think I would like it?'<BR/>I miss you!!!<BR/>Speaking of angsty teenage poetry..remember my nom de plume..Brontelynn???
