yes You should read "A room of ones own". I love that book ;D and Mrs Dalloway. I really love Virginia's "voice" in her books.

I just got "Let's all kill Constance" by Ray Bradbury. I only got it because I love how the title sounds.

So I just made a trip to the library today for the longest time. So I really stocked up. Most of these are for myself, some for school reading and some for fun. I also got two for my mom. Here goes:
Bolt by Dick Francis A River Runs Through It by Normal Maclean A Seperate Peace by John Knowles Little Women by Louisa May Alcott The Devil Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger Can You Keep a Secret by Sophie Kinsella Pretty Girls by Garrett Wyer And one more by D.Francis I can't remember...

The other stories are good, too. But I read them all in a week like and it gets a bit depressing after a while. You should read something that´s set in an entirely diferrent region after it
