Minimum 2 books
All of 2010
signup & review links

Read books written by women authors that were written and/or published between 1700 and 1900. Contemporary historical books set in this time period do not count towards this challenge! The challenge is to encourage you to read some classics.

My book list:

Silas Marner by George Eliot

The Awakening by Kate Chopin

Poems:

Goblin Market by Christina Rossetti

with good intentions, however, challenge not completed

  2. I love The Awakening...must have read it ten times when I was in college. Beautiful story.

    For a bit of poetry, may I recommend the "Goblin Market" by C. Rossetti.
