I'm going for a theme for this and The Life of a Book Addict challenge. I've seen the film or tv adaptation and enjoyed it so why haven't I read the book yet?

1. Sense and Sensibility (1811)
2. The Count of Monte Cristo (1844)
3. Vanity Fair (1847)
4. North and South (1854)
5. Little Dorrit (1857)
6. Journey to the Centre of the Earth (1864)
7. The Island of Dr. Moreau (1896)
8. The House of Mirth (1905)
9. The Secret Agent (1907)
10. Tarzan of the Apes (1912)
11. Twenty Thousand Streets Under the Sky (1935)
12. Brighton Rock (1938)

Alternates:

1. The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886)
2. The Wheel Spins (1937)
