Megan's List

Thanks for coordinating this! It's great to have us all in one place. I'll be reviewing these books and various others I have to in the meantime over here.

My list contains old classics, some young adult, a few from the LOST book club (as though I'm not already enough of a dork), some that have been on my shelves for years and have found impossible get through the first chapter, a few new ones I think I want to read but don't want to buy for one reason or another, and leftovers of favorite authors.
