I really liked the Harry Potter books. I've never read the Da Vinci Code. I think everyone else in the world has going by the sales numbers. :)
ReplyDeleteExcellent books. Number 8 sounds especially interesting :) All I have in my bookcase are manuals LOL :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting list--I've read the Harry Potter books and Anne Frank's tales from the annexe--oh and the DaVinci Code (didn't care for that one). We're alike in that I hoard books too!
ReplyDeleteJesus in Blue Jeans sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Thom...again...

Thanks so much for your recent post and for mentioning my book Jesus in Blue Jeans. Blessings on your path. Laurie Beth Jones
ReplyDeleteI have HP on my bookshelf too. I want to re-read them this year before the final movie comes out.
ReplyDeleteI just finished reading The Curse of the Good Girl. Your book about Gutsy Girls sounds interesting and along similar lines.
Good luck with the books vs. space problem. I know whereof you speak.
ReplyDeleteAnd Harry Potter. Totally agree.

Happy T13!
