Top Ten Tuesday
– Top Ten Six Books I Wish Could Have Had Sequels
Okay, guys.
Sorry to shortchange you this week. BUT I was struggling to find ten since I
read so many books that are part of a series already. My thought process,
growing progressively more desperate:
“Atonement by Ian McEwan? Too depressing. The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold? But she’s
already dead! Roanoke: A Novel of the
Lost Colony by Sonia Levitin – Doesn’t the colony disappear at the end?? Come
on, Meg!”
So in the end I
just gave up (a good life strategy, no?) and just picked the six I felt most
strongly about. And I DO have some strong feelings:

1. Pride
and Prejudice by Jane
Austen (and just about any other novel by her… except you, Mansfield Park, go
back to your corner)
I
KNOW you guys are with me on this one! How do know this? Oh, just judging by
this tiny sampling of the vast body of P&P continuations/spin-offs, like
these that I have read:
 |
| An Assembly Such as This, P&P&Z, Austenland |
And these that I still NEED to read:
 |
| Why so many vampire/vampyre Darcy's? I do not know, but I'll allow it. |
