I have been wanting to read The Woman in White for a long time now. I am determined to stop and make time.
I actually don't think that I will be able to finish it! I'll have to check it out another time. I forgot to add that I have Murder on the Orient Express checked out on my Kindle, and I'm trying to read that and Catcher in the Rye at the same time. :)
I really enjoyed Murder on the Orient Express, even though I had mixed feelings about the ending. I did not like Catcher in the Rye at all, DNF. Hope you have better luck with it.
I don't like it either, but since it's a classic I'm determined to finish it. I have high hopes for Murder on the Orient Express!

Oh, I still need to read Rebecca so that I can watch the adaptation on Netflix.
Mod
Oh, that's cool. Do you always read multiple books at once?
Mod
I didn't care for Catcher in the Rye when I read it many years ago. I have thought about trying to read it again. I know Looking for Alaska is like a modern take on Catcher in the Rye and it was fine when I read it years ago.

Oh, I want to read Second First Impressions. Also, I love that cover.

I still need to read The Bromance Book Club. I love the covers of all the books in the series. I have a feeling that they will be super quick and fun reads.

Not yet. I preordered it because I read The Great Alone and loved it! I know that I will probably love this one just as much, I just haven't started it yet.
Mod
Yeah, that's a great idea. I'm a mood reader so what I'm in the mood to read constantly changes haha.
