This week's Top Ten:
Top Ten Favourite Love Stories

1.Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen: this one keeps showing up on my Top Ten lists and it is with good reason: it's my favourite book of all-time and I loved rereading it last month. The lovestory here is amazing and Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy will always hold a special place in my heart.

2. Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell: everyone and their sister has heard of Scarlett and Rhett and though it isn't necessarily the happiest lovestory of the bunch, it is epic and I love it. Oh, and I also love the sequel Scarlett that was written by Alexandra Ripley, which gave me a much happier ending than this book did. I love happy endings.

3. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë: everyone should read this book (or watch the movie that's coming out in March I think), I love it. I love the lovestory between Jane and Mr. Rochester, though I've always thought of him as very hairy and I have no idea why.

4. The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks: Noah and Ally's story is beautiful and heartbreaking and I cried for them.

5. Graceling by Kristin Cashore: Katsa and Po are among my favourite couples, they are awesome. Po doesn't feel less of a man because Katsa is stronger than he is and I love him for that.

6. Delirium by Lauren Oliver: Alex and Lena... So beautiful, so sad, so amazing! I can't wait for the sequel to find out what happens with them! ***SPOILER, light up to read:***
You CANNOT tell me he's dead, I won't accept it! He has to be alive, right? RIGHT??

7. His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman: Lyra and Will, so amazing, so SAD!! I cried so hard for this one.

8. Song of the Lioness Quartet by Tamora Pierce: Alanna and George, such a perfect couple. So much ignorance on her part before finally deciding on the man who was right for her all along.

9. Emma by Jane Austen: Emma and Mr. Knightley are among my favourite couples as well, this is another book of Jane Austen I love with all my heart. It's due a reread I think ;)

10. The Lovestories in Romance Novels by Various Authors: I'm gonna cheat like Julia did and group these together. Of course I love these stories, I wouldn't read them if I didn't, but unlike the characters listed above, they usually don't stay with me for long after I read the book.

So that's my list, tell me about yours!
