Who doesn't love a read a thon created to show our love of books and the bookish community? The read a thon as a Twitter here, and you can see Cait's announcement here.

Long Term Relationship- Read a book that has been on your tbr for a long time- The Book Theif

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

I thought I would recommend some books from some of my favorite genres. The Classics 1- Pride & Prejudice This is one of my favorite classics, and when making my list this week, I knew I needed to include it.
