Oh god! Thank you!!?, I couldn't find some of the books but here they are! :D
Would it be possible to make reading all of these a challenge for 2013?! I think it would be so much fun to read these together (especially the ones I normally wouldn't read)! =D

Thanks for posting this, and reading them as a 2013 challenge would be awesome. :)
