Willa Cather is one of my favorite authors and My Antonia is a must read classic! I also love The Bell Jar (but what depressed writer doesn't?)
The Bone Woman sound gruesome and fascinating.
I adored Island of the Blue Dolphins when I was younger. I don't know how people hear of all the challenges. but oh well. I am doing Women Unbound, Shelf Awareness and GLBT.
Anna Karenina is one of the handful of books I've actually read more than once.
