Desperately and fervently (I just tried to spell that three different ways before giving up and googling it).<br /><br />I also recommend ALL the books in your 'Series I Want To Start' category. All of them :)<br /><br />I've never read Middlemarch, or any of her other books, but I keep meaning to. I know NOTHING about them though, so I'm slightly apprehensive.Hanna @ Booking in Heelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17705048655467252248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-14536364006304618612016-06-02T13:11:21.311+01:002016-06-02T13:11:21.311+01:00I read Belzhar by Wolitzer and am keen to try her ...I read Belzhar by Wolitzer and am keen to try her older books - I'll be curious to see what you think of this one.<br /><br />I have Ivey's latest book on my TBR pile - it may get bumped into one of the free slots I've left on my list for August as I keep hearing good things about it.<br /><br />Good luckBronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-62171015836202739392016-06-02T13:11:14.017+01:002016-06-02T13:11:14.017+01:00I read Belzhar by Wolitzer and am keen to try her ...I read Belzhar by Wolitzer and am keen to try her older books - I'll be curious to see what you think of this one.<br /><br />I have Ivey's latest book on my TBR pile - it may get bumped into one of the free slots I've left on my list for August as I keep hearing good things about it.<br /><br />Good luckBronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-39629288540930873342016-06-02T10:45:45.418+01:002016-06-02T10:45:45.418+01:00Oooooh I feel like I maybe did this once, but I am...Oooooh I feel like I maybe did this once, but I am so into making a summer book pile, yaassss!

(Well, that's my optimistic target anyway!)<br />Graceling and its sequels are so good, I've been thinking of rereading them some time. Also Bad Feminist is great :)<br />And Middlemarch readalong?
