My friend Lisa over at Just Another Rabid Reader came up with this cool idea for a blog hop and there’s several titles already in my wish list or to read list on Rory’s list so it’s not going to be a huge deal to do one book a month for this hop. Come join us especially if you are a GG fangirl or ever wanted to find and follow in Rory’s literary adventures.

THE RULES
1. Sign up in the linky on the Rory Bucket List Hop post.

2. Post a startup post similar to this one with the list.

3. Post at least once a month about a book on The List. You can post about more than one book in any given month but would like it to be at least once a month. It does not have to be a full review, but at least some thoughts you had about the book after reading the book.

4. When you post about a book, go back to your original list and link to your post.

5. Get the code for the linky and post the rules and the linky on your intro post.

6. Visit as many other blogs as you can in the hop.

7. Have a good time.

RORY’S READING LIST

[*I have seen a movie version of this title. BOLD I read at some point in my life.
Now this may sound odd but in high school I did a Jane Austen read-a-thon by choice on my own just because I liked Pride and Prejudice so not all the classics and most BOLD titles are classics were school assignments. It probably boils out to about half and half.]
