Oh yay! Things Fall Apart is amazing. And I'll finally get to finish The Picture of Dorian Grey. :D

This is a great list! Rebecca is one of my favorites. I'm glad I have an excuse to re-read it. :)

Looks like a lovely mix of rereads and new material and I've-been-meaning-to-read's for me--Villete in particular has been lurking for years on my ever-expanding shelf of books to read next. I'm very much looking forward to having the free time to join in the discussions (next week! so close); the existence of this community makes me very happy.

For future consideration (next year's list, perhaps?), there's a fabulous audio recording of Baroness Emmuska Orczy's The Scarlet Pimpernel over at LibriVox by Karen Savage.

And while I'm sneaking the time to post, just wanted to say that the sidebar with the bookcovers and months for this year's readings is absolutely gorgeous--almost as gorgeous as six foot odd of gorgeous as represented by Percy Blakeney, Baronet. :o)
