    1. I love all of Wodehouse's novels but my favorite is Leave it to Psmith. His Jeeves and Wooster series is great too and I think the first one is My Man Jeeves. :)

  2. Um, yeah, so 7 of your choices are on my TTT, and I've read, and loved, 8 of the others you picked. I really need to try Wodehouse!

  3. I have never read anything from some of these authors, so I should check them out! To Kill a Mockingbird is my favorite novel ever, so Harper Lee would be top on my list. Great list!

  8. What a beautiful list, Lois, quite a few of them are on mine too. I wish I would have had your idea of "honorable mentions", love it. We probably would have had even more names in common.

    Thank you for visiting my Top Ten List.

    Hope you will have a great day,
