And I call myself a book lover......

I found this on Val's blog awhile ago.... I always considered myself to be an avid reader, but you would never know it by looking at my list. There are a lot of books listed that I have never even heard of! I'd like to see Mutant Message from Down Under, On The Road, Leaves of Grass, Night, and Winesburg,Ohio on the list, to name a few.....
