  1. DH Lawrence is a wonderful writer both of novels and short stories. This book was a slog when he was writing about the imagined politics of Australia though magical when he was describing Sydney, Australia and the nearby coast.

  2. Since Jane Eyre is one of my all-time favorite books, I've been working on reading all of the Bronte sisters' novels. For this category, I read The Professor - the book Charlotte Bronte wrote before Jane Eyre, though it was published posthumously.

  3. Whoops, forgot to add this to my name, but I read Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis. It was okay, but not what I expected.

  4. I read The Mysterious Affair at Styles as part of a personal project to read through every Agatha Christie mystery in publication order. (I read a lot of them in my teens, but just whichever ones I could find at the thrift store.) To the best of my knowledge, I had somehow never read her very first book before, and the fact that I couldn't accurately predict the murderer bears out that this was a first time read for me!

  5. I read Work by L.M. Alcott. More sober and disturbing than what I'm used to from her, but still a very good read.

  6. I have wanted to read this book by Hemingway for a long time.

  7. Sorry Karen, another mistake could you delete the Old man and the sea. I actually mean to post my review for James and the Peach
