Booking It in 2011 - Join Us!

So I've decided to join Jessica over at Life As Mom: Booking It In 2011.  She's chosen eleven books she'd like to read this year and has invited everyone else to participate in whatever way they fancy.  I was quite taken by her list and would like to read them all, however I have a few must haves of my own, so I made a few substitutions (which she assured us, is just fine!).  Everyone reading books on her list will post about them on the 10th of each month, beginning February.  Those who've made substitutions and additions to her list (wouldn't we all like to read more than one book each month?) are invited to post about them the following day, on the eleventh.  To see her list, click on the link above and scroll down towards the bottom of the page.  To see mine, see below!
