How about "Christy" by Catherine Marshall? It certainly had great appeal to me when I was in my early 20's.
ReplyDeleteKay ~ Thanks for the suggestion! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, now this is one I definitely want to join in on!!
ReplyDeleteLes ~ And we will definitely be glad to have you! :) I look forward to seeing your list, Les.
ReplyDeleteI hope you listen to Coraline on CD (or your i-pod) someday. I'd love to hear what you think of it. Gaiman reads his book so well. It's a short, wonderfully creepy story.
ReplyDelete3M ~ Okay...I'll plan on listening to Caroline. I'm off to highlight it in bolded purple. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you read BODY BAGS by Christopher Golden. Let me know what you think / thought!
