"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us." Franz Kafka
For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted over at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week, we get a theme to list our top tens.

2) The Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
3) The Fountain Head by Ayn Rand
4) Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell
5) Kite Runner by Khald Hosseini

Oh what FUN! I’ve actually thought about doing this for some of my favorites that I read long before my blog. Great list, thanks!
One or two of those classics I had to write a book report for in class! Not now though, as I stay far away from writing about the classics (had too much of them???) Here's a tease from my current read.
Gone with the Wind is one of my favorites too, and I haven't reviewed it either.
Great list, thanks. Lots of classics I haven't reviewed either.
Ahhhh - so many great books, unreviewed!
I'm familiar with all of your books, but I've only read 3 of them.
Some great books on your list. Gone With the Wind and Agatha Christie could have made my list too.
Here are the books I did choose: http://myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2011/08/top-ten-tuesday-beloved-but-never.html
Lots of good looking books there!
I've never been a big fan of detective fiction, but I think I'm starting to be convinced to give Agatha Christie a try.
Come check out my list this week at The Scarlet Letter.
I almost put Jane Eyre on my list, but then I remembered I'll be reviewing it later in the year as part of the Gothic Reading Challenge. It's one that I'll have a hard time reviewing, though.
The Count of Monte Cristo is such a great book! I've seen it on several lists -- I'm glad people are reading it, even if they're not writing reviews.
Loved Jane Eyre and really liked The Bell Jar. I did like The Fountainhead too, but Jason remembers more about it than me. It was the first book we read together :)
