Ok, there's no particular order here because I never know what I'm going to want to read next. I also went with books that have been collecting dust for at least two years (which makes me so sad).
Middlesex, Jeffrey Eugenides Oryx and Crake, Margaret Atwood Joe College, Tom Perrotta Cherry, Mary Karr Bastard Out of Carolina, Dorothy Allison Mrs. Dalloway, Virginia Wolf
Bastard Out of Carolina is phenomenal. She creates characters with such great depth and amazing relationships. And I have a number of your other books on my to-read list too. So little time, so many books!
