A woman after my own heart! ... In fact, if I were to name the top five of my favourites on this list - the books that I will never stop rereading - those five that you picked out would be them. :)

And, to those five, I'd have to add Connie Willis's Doomsday Book. It pulled me apart in much the same what that TTW did, not least because it's another amazing, original, believable take on time-travel with completely absorbing characters in it. But very different...

Ooh... I've never heard of this one! I shall definitely have to check it out, post haste... :) Thanks for the recommendation!

Speaking of which... you're the first person I've ever met besides my sister that has read River God. What do you like about it so much? What resonates with you?

Yay Time Traveller's Wife! + Yay your love affair with Neil Gaman. :)

I think you have quoted from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies in a previous entry-I am now reading it sometimes as a break. Lol, you have good taste.

Hope you are surviving!!!!!

If I quoted from Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, it was subconsciously... but still, awesome! :D

I am surviving... barely! ;) I hope that you are too!

Love you, Yan! :)
