Two years ago a lovely boy I met gave me a list of 20 books I absolutely, 100%, MUST read the following summer. I didn't get through the list, but I did keep it (nicely tacked up on my wall for nearly 730 days now) and I keep trying to make a dent, so I thought I'd share it with you lovelies in case anyone wants to take the wise words of a lovely boy who curls up with his favorite books on a daily basis :D (There are bonus books at the bottom for you eager achievers you :P)
