  1. Some of your favorites are some of mine: David Copperfield, Russka, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, though I read those in other years. I have Varina on my lists.

    1. I'm not really surprised. We do seem to have a very similar taste in books. I hope we'll inspire each other for many years to come.
