Okay, some of mine are YA books which I love despite them being not-so-literary-merit-ish. The Awakening by Kate Chopin Before I Go by Riley W (I can't remember her last name) 1-800-Where-Are-U Missing You by Meg Cabot Just Listen by Sarah Dessen A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray A Doll House by Henrik Ibsen And I'm almost done with Emma by Jane Austen and Le Petit Prince too.

Ok, I think this is the final January list because I just started Special Topics in Calamity Physics and there's no way I'll finish before Wednesday. Long list because nothing was incredibly long at all. Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt The Three Incestuous Sisters by Audrey Niffenegger Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life by Amy Krouse Rosenthal (re-read) The Polysyllabic Spree by Nick Hornby Housekeeping vs. The Dirt by Nick Hornby High Fidelity by Nick Hornby Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling (re-read) The Higher Power of Lucky by Susan Patron

I also didn't get to read a lot this month, I just read Fahrenheit 451 and Stiff: The curious life of human cadavers. I hope I get to read more in February, but I doubt that...
