<p>I loved wuthering heights!!!!! That's one of my favorite books...Wicked is also good, I would recommend that. If you've seen the musical, though, you'll be surprised at how completely different the book is.</p>
<p>I wish I had your reading list lol</p>
<p>For some reason I only have to read 4 books, compared to last year's 10. I'm happy becuase I have a ton of other books I want to read.

...We had to choose out of a list. Plus my college essays and a 250 AP Bio packet. Blah.</p>
