Great list - thanks for posting it! I'm particularly interested in the mother/daughter reads. (We read Saffy's Angel too!) Did the girls like the Bette Bao Lord? What about the Roald Dahl? That might be one they haven't read.
ReplyDeleteInteresting -- I recognize the names of most of the YA/ children's lit on your list, but not much of the other.
ReplyDeleteDid you review any of your books?
I haven't reviewed any of those books - I only do reference/business type books for review - snore. I'm not sure I would make a good fiction reviewer.
