A Lifetime of Books but a 30-Year Hiatus in Between - Page 4

Here's a list of novels, plays, poetry, short story collections, and non-fiction I have read over the years. Excluded are those I don't remember a thing about especially from my literature degree days. (Great Expectations, House of Mr Biswas, the Color Purple are back on my TBR list.) I had a thirty year reading hiatus but am glad to be back. I've even discovered audiobooks.
