Is there a book I'm looking forward to starting...
So many! I would love to read David Copperfield by Charles Dickens and/or Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell.

Favorite quotes:

Wouldn't it be nice if people purred as charmingly as cats when they are hungry? Half the quarrels in the world would never take place. (Beverly Cleary, Sister of the Bride)
“It is not every one,” said Elinor, “who has your passion for dead leaves.” “No; my feelings are not often shared, not often understood. But sometimes they are.” (Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility)
