  1. The Handmaid's Tale is so good! I read (and loved) it in high school and recently purchases it.

  3. I love your taste in books! These are all books that could be found on my shelves as well. Goodreads keeps recommending Between Shades of Grey to me! There's so many books on my TBR shelf, it's really bad. If you are interested in my top ten I posted a TTT as well here: wordshipping.blogspot.ca.

  4. I could've sworn I commented on this last week! What I said was that I also have Handmaid's Tale as well as Oryx and Crake on my shelf and NEED to read those books! I'm trying to make some time for more classics as well as modern classics this year so hopefully I'll get to them.
