So, this one will definitely be coming back on a freebie week for me!<br /><br />I love that you included the opening from <i>I Capture the Castle</i>! It's so charming and unique and always makes my lists of favorite openings. I love the <i>Pride & Prejudice</i> and <i>Anna</i> openings, as well. And ohhh, that <i>Jellicoe Road</i> quote. Talk about captivating you immediately with a sucker punch to the gut. Perfect.<br /><br />Basically, this list is fantastic! And now I want to go read (or re-read!) several of these books. :DSharon (A Book Barbie)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03923363390909309303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-21086072677407108842013-08-11T19:31:02.383-04:002013-08-11T19:31:02.383-04:00Yes!
