I have never read Madeleine L'Engle (I know) and I also have Greyfriar to read. And Raw Blue thanks to Bibliophile Brouhaha. So I have many of these, but haven't read them. Guess I should get to it, hmm!<br /><br />Great list!<br /><br />HeatherBURIED IN BOOKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205451716054533728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-68922512913257361012011-08-11T20:47:14.215-04:002011-08-11T20:47:14.215-04:00I definitely want to read The Long Weekend and The...I definitely want to read The Long Weekend and The Hourglass Door.
