I found you at Top 10 Tuesday (which I'll be joining in for the first time tomorrow). Your blog looks like it will be full of useful tips and recommendations, so I'm a follower now. I'd be thrilled to have you come check out mine, <a href="http://eclecticismjncl.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Beauty of Eclecticism</a>, and maybe join my first ever attempt to host a reading challenge, which begins on the 5th. Either way, your list is impressive, and I'm looking forward to following your blog.<br />JNCLJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18370649604625989367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2850797427357931243.post-14304102322008957522011-09-30T22:25:39.513-04:002011-09-30T22:25:39.513-04:00I totally forgot to add Pride and Prejudice on my ...I totally forgot to add Pride and Prejudice on my list!

I'd still like to read A Tale of Two Cities and Oliver Twist some day. He just has so many incredibly famous works. I'll feel like my 'read' shelf isn't complete unless I can add a few more Dickens' titles to it, even though I didn't really like the first two books I've read by him.<br /><br />I just found out about the Crimson Petal movie! I need to check out the trailer if I can find it on YouTube.<br /><br />And yes, my blog name was inspired by the T.A.T.U. song!
