I really love this list! I think it is because it is so much broader than a lot of these types of lists. It covers a multitude of genres, reading levels and age gaps. It isn't a list for snobs or best sellers, but ones I know I would recommend. I found this on JoV's blog, Bibliojunkie and had fun going through it and reliving the memories attached to reading the books I had marked off. A lot of them stem back to my days when I couldn't afford to buy books, and spent most of my spare time at the libray choosing which books to max out both mine and my dad's card with. We had a deal. I get him a few Westerns and I could use the rest of his book allowance LOL I miss those days... Of course, that is also where I get my background reading Westerns from. When I had finished my stack of books, I started on his, and Mum's and my brother's stack of books ;-p I may be a book whore... But shhh! I don't think anyone has noticed *snickers*

She stood deep in the shadows of a building alcove and looked past the blackened storefronts lining both sides of the street toward the fighting. The Anaheim compound was under attack by demons and once-men, an army of such size and ferocity that is seems a miracle the defenders had not succumbed months ago when first placed under siege.
