Obviously a Book-Clubber of some sort created this list. I think there are other deserving books that should be on there, but hey, I didn't create the list. I have read 31 of the books and of the 17 books I want to read I already own 9 of them.
So who am I tagging? Everyone! Then comment here so I can see what you've read.

Yes, only you :) And wait, Jamie, of course Jamie, too. You two CRACK ME UP with your book obsession. I wish I had the time or patience to sit and read more often cuz I really do love it when I do. Finally finished Wifey - wow, what a good book. What a great list. Now how long will it take you to bold them all?!?!
I LOVE to read! I have read some on the list, but not all, by far! You should check out Ted Dekker. He's very good! Sometimes you are going...say what? But he always brings it back around.
Hi! Thanks for visiting my blog. I have enjoyed my little snoop around yours. :) You are obviously a voracious reader, like myself. I will have to keep an eye on your lists/links/memes etc and see what I pick up!
You need to get Angela's Ashes the audiobook.
You would totally love it.
Hey Alexis, thanks for visiting my blog. I am definitely going to have to come back and read more of yours. I am really loving 19 minutes! I may swipe this meme and do it later this week...it looks fun.
Have a great evening,
Kim
