Getting Lost in a Comfortable Book 2012 Reading Challenge hosted by Gina at Book Dragon's Lair

*click links above or image to sign-up 

Details:

• Make a post
• link up 
• read 5 books from the list that you haven't read before (check out the list at the sign-up post)
• Reviews:  would be nice but I'd be more interested in why you pick each book and what you thought of it. This can be added to your post about the challenge.

Here are my five:

1. Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
2. Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery
3. North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell
4. Persuasion by Jane Austen
5. The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

I'm going to choose a couple of alternate titles, in case the mood strikes me to read something else...

Alternate titles:

• Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
• The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje
